DESCRIPTION

This simple ensemble implements the algorithm described in the following video:

The Molecular Music Box is a MIDI ensemble - it makes NO SOUND on it's own. If you connect the MIDI output to a synthesizer is will play back sequences when the Reaktor transport is running.

Instructional video explaining all parameters is available here:

Hah - after seeing that vid I had actually asked someone else if they could build this ensemble into a Reaktor module. Very well done! It's really purtyful!

Set length A to 9, Set Length B to 14.5, set the mininum value to a number corresponding to a 'C' note (48 or 60 will probably work best, depending on the synth you're playing with. Range can probably be 36 or so. Using 9 as Length has a pretty good sound to it!
