That SMART guy.
I have a project coming up in which I'll be working with jazz-players, and I'll be doing electronics; which means, programming the beats, soundscapes, ......
Now I was wondering, I'm not all that familiar with sequencing software, but I understand that most of it is pattern based, and the live part in this is (un)muting tracks and switching patterns? Now how would I go if I'd wanted to create irregular measures etc? Like 13/4, that kinda stuff? Or, a regular beat in 4/4 and then throw in one measure of 2/4, 3/4 or something?
I know I can do this in the bigger programs, just putting the loops together, but this doesn't allow any manipulations live. I'd like to keep a certain freedom of structure in it, since alot of it will be based on improvisation of my fellow musicians. (It's probably gonna be with guests, all professionals in training...)
What are the possibilities here? Which programs allow for this? Are there any possibilities that I haven't thought of?
Thanks. r.
