Erratic is a drum sample player with some added 'randomising' features to give variation on every cycle. The randomising is adjustable for each sample and can be switched off if desired. You can independantly adjust the randomisation of;
- hit probability for each of the steps in the sequencer for each sample
- hit velocity spread for each of the steps in the sequencer for each sample
- pitch variation for each sample
- swing (hit timing variation) for each sample
- swing on a global level (in addition to the per sample swing)
In addition, you can adjust
- hit velocity for each of the steps in the sequencer for each sample
- volume, panning and pitch for each sample
- minimum value for velocity sensitive lp filter cutoff
- global tightness (reduces the per sample swing)
- number of steps per bar (measure) 12/16/24/32
- step sequenced drum sample player
- 8 sample slots output to 8 stereo channels (multi-out)
- plays 16 & 24 bit mono & stereo wavs
- 12/16/24/32 step sequencer
- velocity, hit probability and velocity randomness per step
- pitch and swing randomised per sample
- velocity sensitive low pass filter per sample
- global randomised swing
- play samples through step sequencer and/or midi notes
- midi trigger to play partial patterns
- 90 drum samples included
- 39 presets

de la Mancha presents music covering many electronic genres influenced by breakbeat, electro, IDM, glitch, pop, trip hop, DnB and ambient. You can download or stream all the tracks in mp3 format. It's all about the beats and the breaks man! You can also find some remixes, cover versions and collaborations plus links to other projects such as mono.log, a vocal industrial synth pop band with the Orphan and 3 times nothing (3x0) for a more experimental and noise based sound. On top of that you can download my VST synths and effects. The fx include moot, kitchen sync and pitchfork for rhythmic fun, the VSTi synthesizers include erratic, deTox, subhuman, basic and subfreak for a range of sounds and styles.
Ordinate: a probability sequencing drum sample sequencer. each step has 3 sample-outcomes (eg. use same sample at different volumes) plus silence.. the sliders set the weight of each per step.
3 programmable patterns - the fourth sequencer sets probability to switch between them at another timing resolution, so you can eg. program your 'fill pattern' to be more probable every 8th measure. 'muchacho' effect is intended to be a companion for this generator.
Qcussion:
simple percussion q engine. more complex percussion sounds can be made by saving a patch and reopening it in two instances to ensure that they both play the same algorithmic sequence.
