hi all, first of all i admit i totally lack in formal music-harmony-theory education, everything i know about it is self taught from what i found on the web and some pubblications..lately i'm trying to build my abstractions to experiment with composition and computer generated music and that what i want to do: choose a scale and a key, set a chord progression (like I IV V I) and make the patch improvise with some harmonic basis on the scale grade; i have clear in mind what i have to do or at least most basic operation for example pseudo-random selection on chordal notes it's quite satysfing..but i have problems when changing scale key..so i post a simple example of a patch that gets chords from a a scale according to the grade, i hope it make sense for you, please can someone tell me if it's the right approach? (i know about Peter Elsea fuzzy tutorials, and this little example requires Lobjects)
