Converser

Meet Converser: a dynamic call & response MIDI Tool Generator for Live 12 and higher. Converser generates unique MIDI patterns using two discrete note voices that never interrupt each other. Highly controllable randomization generates compelling patterns that chat back and forth.

Automatically detecting and adopting your MIDI clip length, selection, and quantization settings, each voice can even be expressed through a particular rhythm, generating on — or avoiding — specific beats using the count settings. Density determines how talkative each voice can be, while the central weight dial controls which voice dominates — and if so, by how much.

Base velocity combines with randomization and global deviation to make each voice more lively, while length control and randomization express your voices even more distinctively — with note probability to provide even more dynamic results.

Ideal for bass lines, melodic developments, percussive patterns, or any musical opportunity for call and response, Converser is designed to help your music speak. Scale aware, theme adaptive, and Info View annotated, this creative MIDI Tool Generator is designed by Ableton Certified Trainer Noah Pred to seamlessly enhance your creativity.

Requires Live 12 running Max 8.6.

Please note: MIDI Tools in general are not yet supported on Push 3 — even Live 12’s included MIDI Tools do not work on it — but as soon as they are supported, we will work to ensure ours are compatible.
