Ok! I took one of those unfinished ideas that’s only two measures long (the original loop is what you hear at :21) and ran it all through Ultomaton. I ran the bass, drums, and keys each individually through Ultomaton with somewhat sedate settings, and then the track (short as it was) with EVERYTHING set to random (the “chaotic good” pic I posted earlier in this thread).

It gave me a lot of great material, including stuff in different time signatures and some loops that drifted out of time. I arranged them into different sections and then added some soft synths for more basslines and snippets of melody. It felt a lot like a @disquiet junto project, actually, in terms of making something from a given set of materials.

Awesome program, thanks much for making it and sharing it!!! I’m looking forward to using it again in the future!

thanks, triggering play actions wiith the momentary/toggle params doesn’t seem to work for me…

#44

True, this is not possible. The used mapping bpatcher only allows bindings to parameters, not to clips. You could always use another clip firing device … like this one:

Max Clip Launcher.amxd (51.4 KB)

select the desired clip slot and just map a toggle or momentary action to the launch button.

Hi @ithkaa I had an idea about mutliple (4-6) inputs and possibly outputs. Was thinking of a 5 mic 5 speakers setup. Possible? Or run multiple instances of Ultomaton? Thanks

…and one more idea 2nd page on grid for the routing :slight_smile:

#47

all good ideas … Already started working on v2 but the release won’t be anytime soon. I want to keep it as simple as possible (it’s somewhat confusing already) but will surely look into a multi-in/out solution …

I recently updated Ultomaton’s UI to be brighter and more clear in general. Download link in top post.

No changes on the inside… But… I started developing something else, based on the feedback I got here. check out this thread on the Upshot Suite: Upshot Suite - Max Package

Made these tracks using Ultomaton. Hope you enjoy! Really great for using it with audio directly from my laptop using Soundflower.

Just saw this thanks to the thread bumping and am investigating.

One minor question; is a Linux version ever likely to appear? Edit: seems to be working so far using WINE.

#52

I get this message when trying to open the Mac version:

“Ultomaton 2.1” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

This is a gatekeeper issue. Go to terminal and type sudo spctl –master-disable. You can enable it after you’ve opened the app: sudo spctl –master-enable

So I do the first one, then open the app and then do the second one?

Do I need to exit terminal in between?

Thanks

#55

Don’t think you need to exit terminal. This would just enable gatekeeper again.

#56

Ok. Do I need to do this each time I want to open the program?

#57

I don’t think so but don’t know for sure… I never re-enabled gatekeeper

Looks like modular version of Ultomaton.

#59

@fahmi_m indeed, it is. check out this thread on the Upshot Suite: Upshot Suite - Max Package. I’m still developing this package so things are changing all the time.
