Point Blank Online and Daniel Herbert have released Big Riff Generator, a free (Facebook share required) device for Ableton Live (requires Max for Live).

Here’s the seventh Max For Live device in this current series from Point Blank. We’ve called it the Big Riff Generator and it’s capable of generating some monster riffs or funky bass lines when it’s in the mood!

Big Riff Generator is available for free download via Point Blank Online (you’ll need to click the Like button on Point Blank Online’s Facebook account in order to get the download link).

The device generates MIDI sequences and needs to be chained up with another instrument, such as a sampler or virtual synthesizer. You’ll need Max for Live in order to run it inside Ableton Live.

I wish I could try this one, it looks very useful. It’s always good to have a nice sequence generator at hand while tweaking and playing around with a synth.
