This is a small collection of scripted presets that should make working with patterns in Repro-1 a little bit more joyful.
Download latest release.
Copy Randomizers folder to your Repro-1 presets location:
- Windows:
...\VstPlugins\u-he\Repro-1.data\Presets\Repro-1\ - Mac:
~/Library/Audio/Presets/u-he/Repro-1/
All presets are properly tagged and you can find them in the Preset browser, either in Randomizers folder or in Randomizers bank.
Say, you have a preset in Repro-1 that you like and now you'd want an arpeggiated version of it. But you don't know where to start or don't feel too excited about programming patterns manually on the Repro's Sequencer page. Here's where these scripted randomizer presets come in. You load them just like any other regular preset from the Presets browser page, but they don't change your existing sound. Instead, only specific, Sequencer related parameters will be affected. Each time you load a scripted preset, it will generate a different result.
01 Enable Arp Mode.h2p
This is a helper script. It simply enables Arpeggiator and Sequencer and turns any preset into a sequenced one, while keeping all other synth settings intact.
Next is a bunch of note randomizers. Each time you run these presets they will generate a different set of notes from predefined scales. Each preset has its own feel, and some of them are more random then the others:
02 Randomize Notes (Bassline).h2p
03 Randomize Notes (Alt 1).h2p
04 Randomize Notes (Alt 2).h2p
05 Randomize Notes (Alt 3).h2p
06 Randomize Notes (Octaves).h2p
07 Randomize Notes (Pentatonic).h2p
08 Randomize Notes (4+5).h2p
09 Randomize Notes (News).h2p
10 Randomize Notes (Tresor).h2p
11 Randomize Notes (Twins 1).h2p
12 Randomize Notes (Twins 2).h2p
13 Randomize Notes (Waterfall).h2p
14 Randomize Notes (Wild).h2p
Note type randomizers:
15 Randomize Type (Rest).h2p
16 Randomize Type (Tied).h2p
17 Randomize Type (Wild).h2p
Velocity randomizers:
18 Randomize Velocity (1-127).h2p
19 Randomize Velocity (1-10).h2p
20 Randomize Velocity (1-64).h2p
21 Randomize Velocity (64-127).h2p
This one will shuffle the number of active steps in both patterns, while keeping the length of the resulting sequence:
22 Rebalance Active Steps.h2p
The rest are helper scripts.
Duplicate stuff (if there's enough space to duplicate to):
23 Duplicate Notes.h2p
24 Duplicate Types.h2p
25 Duplicate Velocity.h2p
Transpose notes by semitones or octaves:
26 Notes +1.h2p
27 Notes -1.h2p
28 Notes +12.h2p
29 Notes -12.h2p
Increase and decrease velocity:
30 Velocity +10.h2p
31 Velocity -10.h2p
Reset parameters:
32 Reset Notes.h2p
33 Reset Types.h2p
34 Reset Velocity to 1.h2p
35 Reset Velocity to 64.h2p
36 Reset Velocity to 127.h2p
All presets except 22-25 are active pattern aware and will only affect parameters in the currently active pattern. This allows you to target specific areas using Pattern switch (1, 2, 1+2) in the Sequencer panel of the Repro-1.
