Three musical layers
Combine octave, interval and scale-step variation to reshape incoming MIDI.
Max for Live / Scale-aware MIDI variation
Turn a static MIDI phrase into controlled musical variation. Shape octave, interval and scale-step movement before your instrument, keeping exploration connected to the notes you already have.

In your workflow
Build variation with independent up and down probabilities. Choose Random, Alt, Cycle or Smart behavior to explore different patterns of movement, from alternating directions to register-aware decisions.
