How Can AND, OR, XOR and Other Logic Functions Generate Rhythms?

Logic modules are often overlooked as rhythmic tools.

Yet they can dramatically expand the possibilities of a generative patch.

Logic modules… read more

Should Generative Rhythms Use Clocks Instead of LFOs?

Many beginners use an LFO as the timing source for rhythm generation.

While this works for isolated patches, it often creates problems when several rhythmic systems must cooperate.

How Do Euclidean Sequencers Create Complex Rhythms?

Euclidean sequencers occupy an interesting position between order and apparent randomness.

They do not generate random patterns at all. Instead, they distribute events… read more
