X-PONDER
Generative Performance Transformer
$30+
BUY NOW
A uniquely responsive MIDI device, X-Ponder is our generative performance transformer designed by Ableton Certified Trainer Noah Pred to easily produce compelling musical call-and-response. While it doesn't use conventional machine learning, it's useful to think of it like a musical AI chat bot: feed it a “prompt” in the form of MIDI notes and chords, and it replies in kind with a response based on the pitches, chords, velocities, and note lengths played into it.

A variety of output controls are available to tweak X-Ponder’s expression to give it a personality of its own. It can be transposed to any register and easily used to trigger a different instrument than the one played into it. Naturally, all pitch output is constrained within the scale and key set locally, by Live 12's scale and key, or via the bundled Global Hub utility. An optional Viewer helps illustrate the received note input and generated output, and of course the device is fully Info View annotated and optimized for Push.
