Gotharman’s note randomizer are a MIDI only effect, that treats incoming MIDI note
on and off's. When it receives note data, it takes a look at the adjustable probability
parameter, and the velocity value, if Velo to Prob is other than zero, and randomly
decides if it will play that note or not. If it decides to play the note, it will have a look
at the adjustable random velocity parameter, and if this is higher than zero, it will
randomize the note velocity value with the adjusted amount. If the Time parameter is
turned up, it will also create a random time delay, before it puts the note-on or off
thru to the output. This effect is very useful for creating variations in repeating
patterns.
All other MIDI data, than note on and off’s, are passed thru, from MIDI in to MIDI
out, without any treatment.
It works on all MIDI channels at the same time, so if you only wants to randomize
the notes to one MIDI instrument, you will have to connect the note randomizer’s
MIDI output directly to that instruments MIDI input, and connect the note
randomizer’s MIDI input, the way you would usually connect the instruments MIDI
input (i.e. to the MIDI output of your sequencer, master keyboard, computer, MIDI-
thru box, or whatever).
