The assignment is to "Automate something manual" and it arrived at the correct moment.
This week I've been playing in Ableton Live and trying to make something musical.
Today I made a drum loop and then recorded a bass part, before making a couple of other recordings using the M-Tron VST.
They sounded harmonically interesting but the playing was scattered since I'd used the computer keyboard and have almost zero keyboard skills, aside from touch-typing.
Anyway, I read the Junto prompt and decided to add arpeggiation to every track -- except the drums, which got an Automaton effect.
Then I went looking for a video in the public domain about automation and the result seems kinda cool.
