mcp_opendaw_create_impact
Create single-hit transition elements for drops and section changes in EDM tracks. Generates sustained notes with type-specific pitch, duration, and velocity for impactful transitions.
Instructions
Create an impact — single hit transition element for drops and section changes.
Generates a single sustained note with type-specific pitch, duration, and velocity. Essential for EDM transitions: the "hit" that lands after a riser/build-up.
impact_type: Type of impact:
"sub_boom" — deep sub bass hit (C1, long decay, dark)
"impact_hit" — mid-range punch (C3, medium decay, aggressive)
"downlifter" — descending pitch from high to low (glissando fall)
"sub_drop" — lowest sub with long tail (B0, very long, cinematic)
"punch" — short bright hit (C5, short decay, snappy)
unit_index: AU index (-1 = find first AU with note tracks). track_index: Note track index. start_beat: Position in beats where the impact lands. pitch: Base MIDI pitch (default 36 = C2, overridden by type). length_beats: Duration in beats (default 4 = one bar). velocity: Hit velocity (0-1, default 0.9 = loud).
Returns notes created and impact parameters.
Example:
Sub boom on the downbeat
create_impact(start_beat=0, impact_type="sub_boom")
Downlifter after riser
create_impact(start_beat=4, impact_type="downlifter", length_beats=2)
