That just means you didnt place the files correct, just have a look at the install intrusctions and follow them exactly. Reach out to me if you're still having issues: dillonbastan@gmail.com

it does but go to the product page and scroll to the bottom of the Features section to be aware of any limitations in doing so

@@dillonbastan246 Incredible - thanks for the info man. Fantastic work 🤌

ableton only

@@dillonbastan246 Gosh darn it. Thanks for the reply.

this one works with VST just look at the limitations in doing that towards the bottom of the product page

no it is nothing complicated just simpling mixing two parents values at random to make a new child preset. And you can add mutation factor if you want. The beauty of it is how they evolve over generations!

thats what people have been saying, thats cool!

hey its discussed at length towards the end of this video. It's also discussed at the bottom of the features section on this page: dillonbastan.com/store/maxforlive/index.php?product=natural-selection-p

@@dillonbastan246 Yes, mybad, that's I look right now on your video, sorrry about that. Certainly the excitation ! ...;-) Felicitations for this new device !

yes def a limiter if mutating/randomness. Thats why the synth version has an internal limiter

sure I'll add that to the list of deep dives im planning!

they are referred to as "Seeds" and "children" and "Parents" in the device. No AI involved here though!

@@dillonbastan246 I understand there’s no AI. I was mainly wanting to suggest feedback for the Effects to be called “Seeds” in the tab. Should’nt have even mentioned AI with the it’s hype and momentum building daily. I’m sure you’re aware but stable diffusion webUI forge called those sorts of variations of values seeds, similar as how you use the term. Which is absolutely correct how you use three…it’s interesting how you got this to work the way it does. I haven’t looked “under the hood” or if I even can…do t want to yet. Wanna jam. I already bought my bundle. Thank you for building it, elegant as always! NM: I’m too 😜 . :( It’s been a while. I don’t know what I’m talking about.

@@Laternite thanks! I'm not aware of the stable diffusion you are referring, im not the biggest AI head by any means! I see your feedback now. the only issue with that is that it could have a naming conflict with adding seeds in the device in the Family Tree view, to have two different things referred to as seeds might be confusing. But I do agree and lament not naming everything a bit more DNA/evolution/mutation themed

@@dillonbastan246 I just had a good night of making presets and learning both devices. After using both, looking at the synth, reading through the manuals I think you’ve checked all the boxes. It’s a nice piece of work, like your other works. All I would want would be some sort of pattr storage preset manager where I could save large amounts of preset text files. Kinda like the Max Api DevicePreseter.

Oh cool! Also if you end up not doing that you can send feature requests to dillonbastan@gmail.com

not really other than parameter values are treated as DNA. otherwise completely different processes, this devices is just about mixing and mutating presets over generations, no neural networks etc. AFAIK synplant uses neural networks to translate a dropped in sample into parameter values of a patch to attempt to match the sound that was dropped. So quite different aims (i dont own synplant so it probably does more than that)

@@dillonbastan246 it is amazing

I dont see why not, but i think they likely just be having sex with each other
