Each time a note is chosen, a randomized velocity (how hard the note is played), and note length are selected as well. The numbers that make it through are used as the MIDI note to be played. The various objects act as filters, and only allow numbers within the specified scale through. After all values have been chosen, will reset and continue choosing random numbers.
By design, only picks each number in its set of values once. The timing of the main object is randomized by the other and objects to its right.Įvery time a "bang" is emitted by, the object spits out a random number within the range of all possible MIDI note values (0-127). Once the toggle at the top is activated, it starts objects which act as pulsing timers, outputting "bangs" (or instructions for action) at various intervals. The core of the Max patch is a couple octaves of notes from the Mixolydian scale, represented as MIDI values. Put it on while programming, drawing, meditating, doing yoga, or use it as a sleep aid.the name is in part a reference to Melatonin. MelloToneGen sounds best over good headphones or speakers. MelloToneGen aims to strike a balance by providing more than just white noise, and avoiding melodic repetition. Similarly, it's hard to concentrate when listening to music with melodies or lyrics.
Focusing on work or creative tasks in a totally quiet space can be difficult. Having a non-repeating source of ambient sound can be beneficial in many situations.
Along with that, mellow tones are generated, that evolve over time (especially enjoyable on headphones). You can choose from multiple soundscape themes, created from layers of original field recordings. Built with Max/MSP, it runs as a native Mac application, and creates soothing, meditative soundscapes, using sounds of nature recorded in the Pacific Northwest, along with algorithmically-generated synthetic tones. MelloToneGen is a generative ambient music and noise machine application for OS X.
