I am a just a musician and not an expert in all that algorithm area, so sorry in advance if I unknowingly say something stupid. I looked up the possibilities of Markov Chain concept in this presentation that covers different types of generative music and it's use in Tone.js environment: https://teropa.info/generative-music-slides/#/title. I made a brief further research and from what I understood Markov Chain is more or less is a recorded matrix of probabilities, where all note pairs(C-C, C-C#, C-D, C-D#, C-E, C-F and so on) are presented as a set of chances: "which note should play next". For example, note C has a 50% chance of returning to itself, 25% chance of playing E as a next note, 10% chance of playing D as a next note and 15% of playing G. Say, the algorithms chooses to play D after C and now a new array of probabilities is activated for the next note, this time for D: C=40%, E=20%, F=20%, D=20%. F is being chosen and the music continues for eternity. A picture I found that illustrates the rules for a two-note system. A proper Markov Chain is being presented as a "grandfather of neural networks", because it allows just any musical piece to be fed as an input, the sequence of notes is scanned and recorded into the matrix of probabilities and then what meant to be a variation of a piece is played as an output. For my personal project I don't need any input, I would like to set all rules by myself, it should be more interesting, making it no-input system in Logic Scripter. I agree with Dewdman42 that the strongest impression form Logic Scripter is that such type of scripts is barely touched, the only thing I found was a basic self-playing counterpoint script posted on this forum, and it was really fun and much more creative than a mere MIDI FX of existing MIDI piano rolls.

Hello everyone, Has anyone came across a Markov Chain script (or similar probability-based note generator) for Logic Scripter? My coding abilities are next to none, but I am VERY excited with generative music and looking forward to playing around with it in Logic... Also, if anyone knows where to get generative scripts of ANY kind I would appreciate the help! Thank you!
