I have been toying around with PB for the last few weeks and it is really interesting with what it comes up.
Sometimes I would really like to tell the randomising engine that I would like to have weights in my groove not complete randomness.
I know there are favorites and smart tags that influence new grooves.
Think of telling the algorithm that one is working on snare drum that shall play backbeats.
So the groove weight is on the 2 and 4.
Or think of some Reggae beat that has a heavy weight on the 3rd beat.
I know that I can fix notes not to be changed on the backbeat (2&4) but that is something different.
Maybe an additional lane where one can put weigths (in different strenghts) on the timeline to tell the engine where stronger or weaker beats are to be placed.
Then the whole algorithm should listen to that.
I hope I could describe what I am thinking of.
Hi TheWhistler,
Thank you for your suggestion. In the upcoming version, we’re introducing an even more advanced set of algorithms, beyond what you mentioned. It includes a highly extended feature similar to the ‘smart’ system in the current version, but with greater flexibility, which we believe aligns with what you’re looking for.
Stay tuned!

Hi Max,
that is good news so I will keep waiting for the new version.
