(9:30) Video starts (12:37) Euclidean Sequencer (14:10) Routing (17:15) Advanced View Melodic Techno presets for Pigments 5 : Orbit is a sophisticated MIDI sequencer that can generate melodies, chord progressions, drum patterns and more. Driven by the Euclidean algorithm, a simple yet infinitely powerful mathematical model, Orbit merges controlled randomness with intuitive visual feedback, offering an effortless platform to experiment, innovate, and bring your musical vision to life. EUCLIDEAN - The Euclidean algorithm evenly distributes beats across a given time span. Under your creative guidance, Orbit introduces a captivating unpredictability by placing notes in patterns that defy immediate intuition. This controlled randomness within structured rhythms infuses compositions with subtle surprises, making them dynamically engaging and compelling. PARAMETER - Orbit’s sequencer offers 8 separate lanes or rhythm parts each with independent controls allowing for complex polyrhythms and constantly evolving sequences. You can customise each lane by specifying and tweaking a full range of parameters including steps, beats, rotation, probability, velocity, swing and more. MODULATION - The modulation panel can be used to draw in modulation for each parameter on any given lane. With Orbit’s internal modulation system you can modulate the parameters of the sequencer on the fly, or even add an element of randomization to the whole process. SCALE - The scale selector lets you choose your key quickly and facilitates key changes using the circle of fifths. ADVANCED VIEW - The Advanced view allows you to see and control the parameters for all 8 lanes at once, this can be especially useful in the moments before you drag and drop the MIDI from from Orbit straight into your DAW RANDOMIZE - Orbit’s randomize panel allows you to fine tune the boundaries of the randomize function so that your riffing is both creative and usable for your project. Start an idea with one of the factory presets - 80 presets across 7 popular genres to get the ideas flowing including Chill & Ambient, Dance & EDM, Hip Hop & Trap, Lofi & Synthwave, Pop & Indie, Progressive, Techno.
