A patch that plays with the Ambient Drum & Bass genre, popular around 2000. Instant time travel back to your Childhood! It uses drum loops, drum FX, and plays random prepared samples at random points. Runs best at 85 BPM and, for some reason, ...

I sat down last night and whipped up this grid patch. This time, the notes and gate triggers are based on probabilities. There are two pad synths, a random noise generator for some unpredictable FX, and a sparsely firing pulse lead.

The grid is realtively simple. I start by generating a major chord in the upper section: 0, -12, +4, +7. I take the root pitch and rotate it around the circle of fifths, going down 7 semitones each time. The other chord notes follow along. Every n...

And yep, you can download the patch for free if you want!<...

This is a small patch I made in Bitwig’s Grid with some house/techno/dub vibes. You can tweak a few parameters and perform with it live. I was too lazy to make an arrangement, so it’s probably best to hook up a controller and play around. All ...
