ProbStepsMIDI
PropStepsMIDI is a generative MIDI device, built upon my ScaleMakerMIDI device.
It is designed around the concept of scales being mapped to a Step-Sequencer interface via the live.grid object. Here each row has its own pitch-class set or scale that it will Loop or Randomize as it plays through the steps. You can select common scale types from a menor type in pitch sequences and custom scales for each row. To modulate you can use the modulate number box.
Each step in the device has its unique probability knob which sets the likelihood of a MIDI note happening (if enabled) from 0-100%. There is also a SpeedMultiplication Interface that allows you to speed up or slow down the current step, based on the Speeds selected in 'SpeedLo'(Higher on UI) and 'SpeedHi' (Lower on UI).

ScaleMakerMIDI
ScaleMakerMIDI is a generative MIDI step sequencer designed around scales being mapped to a Step-Sequencer interface via the live.grid object.
You can select common scale types from a menu with those scales often being presented in two octaves. You can also type in pitch sequences and custom scales, but those will always wrap around a %12 behavior, fitting within one octave. To modulate you can use the modulate number box.
