Fractal Tune Smithy 2.4 Main Features :

• Original tune:
  This is a canon by augmentation. You can play each line of the canon in a separate part, or choose which part to play according to the number of notes played so far, position in the arpeggio, etc.



• Fibonacci rhythms:
  This is one of David Canrights ideas - to adapt this discovery of pure maths to generate a rhythm.The rhythm never repeats exactly at any speed, but because of its fractal structure has a kind of regularity to it that stands in for the conventional rhythms. More exactly - each layer of the tune has long and short beats, each made up of long and short beats of the next faster layer, and it is done in such a way that each layer plays the same pattern of long and short beats, but never repeats.



• Fibonacci Tone Scapes:
  Here the idea is that the pitch goes up and down depending on whether one plays the short or long beat of the fibonacci rhythm. Most choices of the intervals to go up and down by will cause the tune to rapidly drift up either and down in pitch as the tune progresses - but FTS is able to find solutions for you that will keep the overall pitch of the tune steady for hours on end.



• Polyrhythms:
  You can make polyrhythm fractal tunes with e.g. 3 beats in one layer for every 5 beats in the next and 7 beats in the next one, or whatever, any choice of numbers you like and any number of simultaneous beats up to ten simultaneous polyrhythms or there-abouts (depending on number of beats in each one).



• Alphabet Seeds:
  You can use a name, code or phrase as the seed. For instance, one can use gene fragments as the seeds. They can also be used for the volumes and timings of the notes in the seed.



• Scales for Layers:
  These are fractal tunes in which each layer plays in a different scale, and the scales are stacked on top of each other. E.g. you could have a conventional pentatonic melody in just intonation in the second layer, and have the first part play phrases in septimal minor above each note of the melody, just by way of an example.
