Fishtail vs How Far?

Fishtail is a generative MIDI instrument for iPhone and iPad. It composes complete musical forms, then lets you shape, perform, retain and rearrange them! Explore six composers, including Lumière’s evolving modal colour and Ritual Engine’s rhythmic energy. Roll D7 for a shaped recipe, then Generate and edit it. Fishtail does not use AI to generate music. Its musical output is created through algorhythmic generation grounded in musical theory. Build pieces from sections with independent keys, modes, meters, cadences and expressive treatments. Generate distinct Takes, compare them, reorder them and hand the next Take over at a natural whole-piece boundary. Fishtail produces MIDI rather than sound. Use it standalone or as an AUv3 MIDI plug-in, and route its seven musical channels to the instruments you choose. Ableton Link supports shared tempo and transport. Features: • Complete multi-section generative compositions • Seven-channel MIDI output • Retain, reorder and perform Takes • Seven intonation systems • Normal MIDI, pitch-bend and MPE output • MTS output • Ableton Link • .fishtail project save and recall • Standard MIDI and per-channel export • Experimental analogue CV file packages • Accessible light and dark interfaces No account, advertising, analytics or tracking. Tested in AUM

Put every sound in its place. How Far? is an AUv3 mixing effect that makes spatial placement and perceived distance easy to control. Move across the XY pad to position or widen a sound, then move vertically to bring it forward or push it deeper into the mix. How Far? combines level, tone, presence, transient softening, reflections, diffusion and stereo cues to create a natural sense of depth. Use it to: • Create separation between instruments • Bring important parts forward • push supporting sounds behind the lead • Place sounds across the stereo field • Add width without losing control • Build depth without stacking multiple plug-ins Choose from Pan, Width, Space, Wide+ and Angle modes. Fine-tune each distance component on the Details page, or start quickly with the included presets. Use How Far? as an AUv3 effect in compatible hosts, or capture, audition and export audio in the standalone app.
