'ONI3' - New Original Music - More Fun w/ Melodic Steps...

with the Melodic Steps plug-in (seen below). I've really been enjoying playing around with this to create ambient, evolving stuff. Using specifically pad sounds from Strobe2, there is a ton of cool variation that is possible just from the synths themselves. When you add automating parameters for building things up, then the random velocity, octave, length, etc. via Melodic Steps, you can get some really cool stuff. This is 3 tracks, with Tracks 3 and 5 both being random lines from the plug-in. Track 4 is a little chord sequence, pictured above to the right, just to add some variation. I used a sound that swells in and out, and I think it worked out nicely. I just installed Ableton 12 the other day (this is still 11), so once I have some time this weekend to watch some walkthroughs, I'll start sharing ideas using it, as it has some wild new features that should make for a ton of fun.
