Generative Modal Melodies - Max/MSP Tutorial

This is definitely a fun one- In this video, I create an algorithm that generates real-time melodies based on scales determined by the chords I am playing. This lets me play harmonies and let the computer 'solo' modal melodies over the music. You can modify the parameters in this algorithm to use other chord and scale types and explore other harmonic worlds!
