Hello,
I want to use a software sequencer to control multiple tracks.
In short I want the sequencer to be able to control any parameters available to me in Live.
What software can I do this?
For example,
1) track one is using operator loaded with some bass sound that plays some arp sequence.
Then I want the sequencer to change the delay that is dropped into the same track playing operator.
2) The sequencer then plays track 2 which is using Simpler to play the same arp sequence but every third not as chords with alternating accents.
3) The sequencer then plays track 3 loaded with some synth emulator to play random notes in the sequence and whenever those notes play they do not play in track 2.
Software sequencer to control multiple tracks and parameter?
Re: Software sequencer to control multiple tracks and parameter?
No software that I know of can do #3, which is muting a note if it's currently playing in another track. I do not understand at all what you want #2 to do. #1 Live can do already. I'm sure I am misunderstanding what you really are looking for.
If you use a Mac, look into Numerology which is the deepest step sequemncer I know of.

I would like a sequencer to trigger the instrument in different tracks but with the ability to control whatever parameters are available.
Each track would play the same sequence. If the notes change , it will get reflected in all the tracks.
A user could say "Sequencer, generate a random pattern in the key of A min. Set the swing to <blah>....send output to tracks 1,2,3 "
This way you can improvise live from one sequencer.
A single sequencer can mute track 1, and play tracks 2 3 and control the pitch on 3 and the lfo on 2.
Then track 1 can be solo-ed ....etc.

Max for Live would probably work, but that might be a lot to learn. But probably worth it.
