Note: Development of Cells Device has ceased (it was only a test). The live performance capabilities have been developed into Cells!. The Glitch like features may occur in the future as a separate tool.
Early alpha version attached. This is how it works:
- The current pattern is divided into beats (quarter notes).
- Each beat is subdivided into 2, 4 or 8 sub-beats
- You indicate instruments you want to use with this tool by adding “[L]” into their name
- Select one of these instruments before starting the tool
- Tools -> Cell Device -> 2 / 4 or 8 PPQN
- The GUI will magically appear if everythings ok and playback will start
- The pattern is looped and the current track cleared
- Playback position is highlighted in green
- Click a cell command and click cells (red = mute, blue = reverse, yellow = repeat the previous cell)
- Operations on cells are not commutative
- Select different loops in realtime with the buttons on the left, the same cell commands will be applied
- You can also change the BPM if you wish
I have an example file with some loops ready for use here
Enjoy!
All feedback welcome!
