Overview: In this paper, a new concept of real-time loop music production is introduced, along with its implementation in Pd. This scheme tends to improvise loop music based on very limited pattern (loop sample) materials. Four loops, each divided into 32 grains, work at the same time. Analysis of the spectral and energy similarities between every two grains is conducted, and the transition probability matrices generated by the analysis phase are consulted for each decision of grain choice during remixing. A joystick-style controller is designed to control the probability distribution, which changes the music characteristics in real-time.
