Mind-blowing MIDI Generator Script for REAPER

[@DubCadet]

Rob U the script author here. I never imagined it being used like this before, but this sounds RAD, nice one ! :) And yes, I did promise a v2 a long time ago... and yes there is a v2 very-alpha version kicking around though to be honest I haven't done much work on it for a while, but I feel inspired again (don't hold your breath though :) All the best !

[@reapertips_plus]

Legend!! Thank you so much 💙 It's a very wonderful and complete script as it is. And hahaha as soon as you released, I instantly thought of making a djent generator like this haha. I actually made a video about it almost 4 years ago: instagram.com/tv/B5Sux52HWaj/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Excited if you ever release a v2!! Happy to make another video :D

[@DubCadet]

The Djenerator ! Love it 😁

[@transmothra]

Cheers for a great coding job! This is a seriously cool tool. Any chance the pooling bug will someday get ironed out?

[@fazsound]

Man - that MIDI send for the kicks is genius 👏👏👏

[@Pedrosilva-pt]

I have been doing that guitar to drums trick for a while now, but had not idea there were those JS plugins that could make my life so much easier now(as well as your theme too). Thank you so much. Please keep it up, been learning so much with your videos.

[@cjcurcio]

Thanks so much for covering this! I know Jon Tidey did a video a while back, but I never added it to my toolbar! It's an amazing script!

[@vivenzeo]

Been waiting for MIDI Ex Machina version 2 for a while now. Rob U promised it a few years back, hope he finally gets the free time to work on it

[@buckycore]

This thing is magical. It creates better sounding ideas than Audio Modern's Riffer even

[@coreyharen24]

Holy shit this is so cool! This would be really fun to randomly generate riffs and see how fast you can learn them on the guitar!

[@BearFulmer]

that is a fun one, ive tried a bunch of others like playbeat and weird arpeggigator type editors in synths, along with some of those newer ones , roll those dice

[@christophergreene13]

holy shit, what a rad creative tool for songwriting and ideation

[@tonyrapa-tonyrapa]

Sounds good. Obviously, you need to be careful not to start sounding generic and repetitive but if you carefully take little parts of each generated part and stitch them together, then I think it could be very, very cool.

[@Tokolele]

OMG! This is insane ! The trick to make bass receiving notes from guitar is really clever. I'm gonna use it the inverse way (when I want guitar picked note to follow bass, or clavinet or organ doubling bass !).

[@S1L3NTD34TH]

How did you get it to route to the kick drum track like that? I can't do it

[@marcosgrillo9578]

I try to send the midi guitar to the midi bass but the midi bass channel where I've the plugin doesn't make any sound! I put the settings like the video but doesn't recive any sound :c

[@Divedivine]

On my end the send needed to be -> Pre-Fader (Pre-Fx) Then I've got sound :)

[@live2test]

As always super helpful, thanks!) wondering how to make the bass hearing only the bass notes from the guitar. only the lowest notes.

[@vintagetelefly]

You´re becoming my favorite channel for reaper tips

[@reapertips_plus]

aw thank you so much! this is so motivating to hear 🥹

[@Lordxfx]

You know, I do want to program this dark guitar noise in the future. : )) I 'm kind of in to DnB. But slayering the six was my first love. : ))

[@Kalsten]

Oh my, this is so fun. Ultimate djent machine xD

[@Qomplex]

Awesome!!

[@MahmoudNader]

There's no way to keep the a ript always on top of reaper windows ? I find it very annoting that each time i do a piano roll efits i have to look for the script

[@FausColinoAlonso]

Que bueno,esto promete mucha diversión y entretenimiento.Muchas gracias por todo. Gran skin estoy usando Revisando todo, mucho por aprender.

[@NEEDSHES]

This is the end 😅

[@AlienAmbient]

You should try Plant Wave for this

[@VultureCulture]

So incredible! 🤯🤯🤯

[@VigilanteWilliamson]

Am I crazy or missing the part where getting it to open is explained? I installed it and can't find it in the action list. How do i get this working?

[@reapertips_plus]

Hello! - in the actions menu, make sure you are in the context of MIDI editor (top right dropdown menu)

[@thomasjamessounddesign]

cool script, but it seems kind of broken on my end? maybe I'm screwing up the install but the note grids aren't working properly at all, everything is heavily swung or completely random.

[@dashobradors]

Just wow!

[@kerwinalexander6836]

Hello, is there a way to use this script for other genres of music?

[@АлександрКалачев-и4в]

Amazing script. Its will be cool if you make a video about Reachord too)

[@sekritskworl-sekrit_studios]

I wish this was also available as 3rd party VST3

[@jimmythebold589]

nah. just use reaper. it's superior. i say that as a huge ableton fanboy nerd. learn reaper inside and out, even if you use another daw. you'll thank me one day

[@teomage978]

what this guitare électrique ?

[@alpearson]

Great stuff. What guitar SIM vst are you using? It sounds amazing 👍👍👍

[@Kalsten]

He said Soldano, so I am assuming Neural DSP Soldano.

[@reapertips_plus]

Yes! Soldano by Neural DSP. It's such a good all-round amp I think :D

[@therileyobrien]

@@reapertips_plus What is creating the guitar sound that goes into the Neural DSP though?

[@reapertips_plus]

@@therileyobrien I am using Odin II for MIDI guitars :D

[@ИльяСадртдинов]

Hi. I bought the "Modern Metal Songwriting Template" when it first appeared. Has there been any template update since then? In my version, there are no midi messages from guitar to bass and drums. Also, there were no update notifications on the email specified at the time of purchase. (Google Translate)

[@reapertips_plus]

Hello thank you sooo much 💙! No updates yet. I will be sending an update via email this week. What you see in this video is something I just added it to the template for the sake of this video demonstration. The MIDI guitars are not part of the template. Thank you for getting it 💙 super appreciated!

[@ayeapprove]

Perfect for when you can't think of any breakdown patters haha

[@marcosgrillo9578]

AMAIZINGGGGGG

[@AltaPisco]

so we know now how Vildjartha and Thall songs are made

[@VincentVegardSvart]

There is a script for the chord progressions?

[@StevenSmethurst]

There's chordgun script

[@briantriesart]

Lovely

[@cmd_f5]

This is great for when I wanna know how all next year's djent will sound LOL. jk That's super powerful stuff.

[@80icio]

and that was the death of djent

[@Not-Only-Reaper-Tutorials]

question of time then we will have neural scripts

[@frankyoualot]

would love to see a version that is not Metal 😁

[@patrickr.5821]

Awesome script! How much is it?

[@rano12321]

All free

[@playNsleep]

man im so glad that we can have entirely computerized guitars, because completely computerized drums wasnt enough, fuck the musicians am i right?

[@zendakk]

And those entirely computerized recording studios, oh my! Is nobody thinking of the poor tape manufacturers? 😢

[@playNsleep]

​@@zendakk Nah feel free to record digitally but if this was used for a final product I'm sure whoever used or bought it would feel scammed. Is it too much to get someone to play an instrument these days? This might be good for a demo or something or to get a vibe across before a musician plays it

[@zendakk]

@@playNsleep Who says that's not what it's used for most of the time? And what "product"? The listener won't know which gear or tools were used, as long as they like what they hear it doesn't matter anyway.

[@apogeantide]

This is a cheat code 😂

[@alexandersorbas1881]

google adsense

[@sethstout2892]

I hope theres a specification in the terms & conditions that the developer is entitled to all 30 cents of your spotify/youtube royalties after you post your Djent in a box to the world. Because writing your own music is pointless.

[@SitWithAnkit]

Midi programming is the weakest part of Reaper and it requires scripts. More please, there are almost zero midi programming related tutorials on youtube.

[@rano12321]

Scripts aren't required but scripts make it easier and faster and adds unique tools and also using scripts is part of using Reaper since no other daw has this level of scripting available. There are channels who make midi tutorials on YT in Reaper like Learning Reaper, Wodzu beats, Iddqd sound, The ultimate mix down etc.

[@Dudderlyful]

Yeh not working for me ... ...s\MIDI Editor\MIDI Ex Machina\RobU - MIDI Ex Machina.lua:676: attempt to call a nil value (field 'BR_GetMidiSourceLenPPQ')

[@DubCadet]

The script has a dependency, you need to install SWS Extension (they're free too).
