Probability Groups

Post by lewbylew » Mon Jun 28, 2021 2:27 am

Hello!

Hopefully this isn't a double post, I did search for it and couldn't find anything.

It would be really great if somehow the note probability could be made into groups. A great use case for this is a drum fill. Currently if you wanted a drum fill to trigger 50% of the time, you can set the probability of all the notes in the fill to 50% and some of the notes of the fill may get triggered, others may not, so you might end up with half a fill or random parts of a fill. It would be great if you could link them all in some way so that that drum fill either plays the whole fill or nothing at all.

There are work arounds to make Ableton do this currently, such as sampling the fill and then making probability of the sampled audio but it's a bit slow and clunky in comparison to just being able to quickly select the notes, right click them and press "Link Note Probability" or something to that effect.

Thanks!

Lewis
