In FL you can do that by "ALT+R" in the piano roll. BTW, most midi messages that are available in midi specifications are actually useless during production. It's the reason that most of them has been embedded in MIDI OUT tool instead of Piano roll itself. Piano roll is just for working with notes not all of the midi messages.

But Bitwig can do that right in the piano roll
I guess i'm getting too picky all of a sudden.

 

Please read my previous post. I said in the piano roll.

BTW, randomization is for people who do not know much about the music and also have no idea at the first stages of production. There are tones of randomizations. Randomization on Scales, Chords, Notes, Durations, etc. but believe me you don't need all of them. Instead of thinking about randomization try to raise your music knowledge. 1 in 1000 randomizations gives your intended results but by acting knowingly you would achieve your goals more quicker.

That's insulting from you, trying to make a statement in a ignorant way while hurting others. Instead of ignoring my real purposes for "randomization" you should've been asking why i need it at least. I didn't mention anything about it because i already knew Bitwig that could do such thing so i thought maybe other daws can do it as well and also i didn't expect i'm gonna get insulted.

Instead of jumping so steeply on assumptions, i must let you know that i do play and compose on the piano and i do have enough background of music theory.

So finally, just to let you know why i was needing the randomization feature: It was all about testing the velocity layers of multi-sampled pianos and other thoroughly sampled instruments in a quick way, anytime-anywhere. And i wanted to do that to an extreme extent. Another use for it is that i compose ideas on my laptop pretty often and because the inspiration strikes me even in the less common places, i can record some chords and melodies, a whole song structure just by playing the querty keyboard of the laptop right on StudioOne. After that, everything sounds FIXED at 100 velocity value and i wanna get a more "organic" picture of what i just composed "on the road" before getting into my studio. Is that really so condamning?

chill out and use ableton's velocity plug-in

 

Well...i worked with Atari's 520/1040 st since...times of Pro-12/24 and Emagic Logic , through the first Cakewalk 12 (lovely) so I have spens a lot of years working with midi, so...to me Cubase (on pc) is the most logical option...it was forged with thousands of different user's opinions until now.Motu Digital performer is the best option if you are scoring...but in most cases, Cubase has all the options than DP9 are showing us now as new features!..It depends about your workflow and previous experience..learning curve with new software always it's a bit hard, so, Cubase for midi and Protools for editing audio (but you can all the audio edition with Cubase perfectly..)

 

Is there anything similar to the chord track in fl studio?

 

Sorry for that. My audiences were not you actually. It was just a general idea.

The best and the most smartest tool in the market for randomization is Rapid Composer. It allows randomization on any aspect of notes algorithmicly. You can also use it as VSTi inside your favorite DAW and drag and drop its generated midi s into any track. Major DAWs do not even have 1% of its capabilities on randomization.

You choose working scales and chords then randomize on the notes even produce random melodies or basses. Its chord library has all of the known chord progressions on any scale or you can add yours to it too.

Yes of course. There is an icon named Stamp inside the piano roll. You can use its per-defined chords and scales or define yours too. You also have control on fitting them to any scale in every bar.
