Try this:I've probably phrased that badly. I'm not talking about creating percussion sequences. What I mean is I have a 4/4 beat, then try to create some rhythmic sequence with something like a pluck or a synth bass, etc. by feeding chords into harmony bloom which feeds a synth. If I don't touch the offsets, all is fine (but boring). Depending on the loop length there seem to be different sweet spots for the offsets that sound interesting while most settings between them sound like a cat walking over the keyboard. When I've found a sweet spot it seems even harder to "escalate" because there is no easy way for little variations other than probability (not a fan of randomizing). Automating the offsets doesn't work for me right now and automating the other parameters (loop length, note count,...) doesn't give musical results or is too much work (triggerbars). It feels like eating a soup with a fork.
Turn on 1 trigger bar
Set Note Collection to Minor9, Scale to Minor Pentatonic, N.Notes to 6, and Loop Length to 1
Limit N.Min and N.Max to 1 octave
Now play with the E.Offset. Once you find something you like, try different Trigger Bars (but only one at a time).
