How does Instruo Harmonàig generate four-note chords from one control voltage?

Instruo Harmonàig: Bringing Polyphony into Generative Modular Synthesis

Most quantizers transform an incoming control voltage into a single quantized pitch. Instruo’s Harmonàig takes a different approach. Instead… read more

How do you create random melodies over stable chord progressions in modular synthesis?

Combining Stable Chord Changes with Random Melodies

A powerful compositional strategy is combining predictable harmonic movement with unpredictable melodic development.

Instead of making everything… read more

How Can Quantizers Change Scale and Key Automatically?

Quantizer Modulation and Generative Harmony

Many musicians think of quantizers as simple pitch-correction devices.

In generative music they can become active harmonic processors.

Modern quantizers often allow scale and key… read more
