Tine

Write notes into a clip

Name the notes — "C E G C" — or the pattern — "a kick on every beat" — and they land in the clip. Tine writes what you said; it does not invent a part for you.

Say it like this

Each of these was run against a real Ableton session on every model below, and the reply is what Tine actually said — quoted, not rewritten. Switch tabs to see how the answer changes with the model.

These are a floor, not a syntax — you can be a good deal vaguer, and how vague scales with the model you run. The smaller local model wants a clear verb and a clear target; the hosted one takes the most roundabout phrasing you can throw at it.

Also in clips & notes

Tine does this in Ableton Live 12.3.x
