So I have an idea for a tool that I think all of us who produce recorded music could all benefit from in the creative process, and I wanted to see if this sort of thing already exists as a web application or piece of software.
This tool would be a virtual set of die where instead of different numbers on each face you have (a.) a command and (b.) a variable.
The command would specify a way to alter the variable. The variable would be a specific instrument in our case.
Example: One die would have commands such as Distort, Reverse, Filter, Synthesize... and then the oher die would have variable such as Lead Vox, Drums, Bass, Guitar, Keyboards. A roll of the dice could yield something such as Synthesize - Drums, Reverse - Lead Vox, Filter - guitars.
I find myself turning to Oblique Strategies by Brian Eno, which has been turned into a helpful web app here, and am curious if this has already been done or if an opportunity exists to build a web page like this.
