Something I find interesting is that they're adding built-in entropy to this update. You will now be able to set the probability that a MIDI note will fire in a melody. Or set a range of probabilities for the velocity value of a MIDI note. I'm sure that you will be able to map the range probabilities to the ADSR of synths etc... I'm curious if that is more of a novelty or will actually be a valuable tool for exploring ideas.

Do you get to define seed values? I'm just thinking in terms of reproducibility if you are composing a track instead of playing live. A super cool feature I didn't even think would be helpful before

People seem to love this probability trigger feature in Elektron products.

YES. The Elektron sequencer is the first time I ever felt stepping out of a computer might make for a more powerful, fun sequencing experience. It's a joy to use.

Probability-based triggers are one of my favorite things, and something that I thought was pretty lacking here (I only came to Ableton just recently, but nearly every arpeggiator I've used up until now has had a note probability feature and it does wonders for variation in patterns).

So I'm extremely glad to see it being integrated.

The velocity MIDI effect already let you randomize all note velocities by a user-controlled range. This just lets you set random ranges per-note.
