Hi everyone,
I am fairly new to Tidal Cycles and have been enjoying the creative possibilities it offers for live coding music. However,,, I am hitting a bit of a wall when it comes to creating interesting rhythm variations in my patterns.
I find myself getting stuck in repetitive loops that lack the dynamic changes I’m aiming for.
I am particularly struggling with adding subtle variations that keep the rhythm evolving without losing the groove. I have been experimenting with functions like every
and shuffle
, but the results aren’t quite what I am after.
I want to achieve those small.., intricate changes that make a pattern feel more alive over time.
Does anyone have tips or techniques for introducing rhythmic variations in a more natural and musical way: ??
Are there specific patterns or functions in Tidal that you find useful for this: ?? I also read this thread https://in-thread.sonic-pi.net/t/notes-and-ideas-about-the-challenge-of-live-coding-tesorflow/ but couldn't get specific solution.
Any advice or examples would be greatly appreciated...!
Thanks in advance for your help...!
