Intermorphic noatikl $99

This 'transgenerative' compositional software has more than just novelty value, esepcially if you're short on musical ideas.

Manufacturer's description

noatikl is a powerful yet easy to use tool that will help you generate new musical ideas. It uses techniques developed over the last 17 years through our work on the award-winning Koan generative music system, techniques now used in the all-new and superior "noatikl".

noatikl is a generative (MIDI) music engine. It creates musical information in the form of MIDI notes, and can also generate and send MIDI controller information to generatively control settings of your favourite synths, FX units and samplers.

There are variants available for both Win and Mac OS X, including plugin versions for e.g. Logic (Audio Unit [AU]), Sonar (VSTi, DXi MIDI Effects), Cubase (VSTi, MIDI Effects), Ableton Live (VSTi), Reaper (VSTi) etc. as well as a standalone version, very useful in its own right, for where there is no suitable plugin variant, e.g. Pro Tools.

noatikl has extensive built-in scripting features, and can also be used as a customisable hyperinstrument!

Pros

Inspirational and fun. Gets along with just about every host. MIDI CCs can be controlled. Scripting is supported. Excellent tutorials.

Cons

Setup can be a bit complicated. Some situations need a MIDI router app.

The bottom line

Generative music is still a niche area, but if it is your thing, noatikl is one of the most flexible and usable options available.
