I don’t overanalyze, I just do what feels right in the moment. It’s pure creativity. I’m someone who’s naturally very inspired, so ideas tend to come to me quickly. But once I’ve gone through that initial phase with the Mikro, where I’ve built up patterns and stacked different elements,…

Algoriffix has updated Pitch Perfekt, its free voice-to-MIDI plugin, with a new pitch correction feature in the latest version 1.7 beta.
