At this point, there is a good chace I've written more articles about Iftah's Sting than any other single piece of software. Most likely for a combination of it being a) essential b) free and c) so frequently updated. It's a free pattern generator which has has numerous iterations, tonnes of features and an easy to use interFACE (....I'll get my coat). This latest version adds Ableton Move Takeover Mode and a new Bass Algorithm...
The new version of Sting is an expressive, improvisational acid line performance system. It is a Max for Live device that runs on Ableton Live or Push 3 Standalone. Sting can generate anything from random to acid patterns and morph between them fluidly. It features a new generation algorithm, advanced editing, expressive control, generative sequencing, and modulation capabilities, along with a set of live performance oriented features. These include a dedicated Push takeover mode that transforms Sting into a hands-on live performance system when used with Ableton Push 2, 3 and Ableton Move.
All of Sting's parameters are logically laid out and fully controllable via Tabbing, making it accessible to blind, visually impaired, and sighted users.
