Transpose by whole octaves. oct 1 is up an octave, oct (-1) down.

Add onto a pattern:

, cello T (0,1) k vl grid Bass |+ oct (-1)

Rotate a pattern earlier (pullBy) or later (pushBy) in time. Function forms of the TidalCycles <~ and ~> operators, so they compose in a modifier chain rather than needing parentheses.

, pushBy (1/8) $ harp T (0,1) k vl flow Alto

Rotate a pattern later in time. See pullBy.

Random per-event velocity jitter, for a less mechanical feel. The argument scales the spread: humanise 1 varies amp by up to ±0.09.

Ensure every event is an onset by aligning whole start with part start, but only at cycle boundaries. Prevents TidalCycles' onset detection from filtering events in cat constructions where inner patterns have period > 1 cycle, without causing MIDI flood from sub-cycle queries.

Note-length constants, as fractions of a cycle: 1/64, 1/32, 1/16, 1/8, 1/4 and 1/2 respectively. Useful as arguments to pullBy and pushBy, where a named length reads better than a bare fraction.
