-- Randomized note filter. This is the author's (in)famous Raptor algorithm.
-- It needs a whole bunch of parameters, but also delivers much more
-- interesting results and can produce randomized chords as well. Basically,
-- it performs a random walk guided by Barlow harmonicities and
-- indispensabilities. The parameters are:
-- ns: input notes (chord memory of the arpeggiator, as in besthv these are
-- used to calculate the average harmonicities)
-- ms: candidate output notes (these will be filtered and participate in the
-- random walk)
-- w: indispensability value used to modulate the various parameters
-- nmax, nmod: range and modulation of the density (maximum number of notes
-- in each step)
-- smin, smax, smod: range and modulation of step widths, which limits the
-- steps between notes in successive pulses
-- dir, mode, uniq: arpeggio direction (0 = random, 1 = up, -1 = down), mode
-- (0 = random, 1 = up, 2 = down, 3 = up-down, 4 = down-up), and whether
-- repeated notes are disabled (uniq flag)
-- hmin, hmax, hmod: range and modulation of eligible harmonicities, which are
-- used to filter candidate notes based on average harmonicities w.r.t. the
-- input notes
-- pref, prefmod: range and modulation of harmonic preference. This is
-- actually one of the most important and effective parameters in the Raptor
-- algorithm which drives the random note selection process. A pref value
-- between -1 and 1 determines the weighted probabilities used to pick notes
-- at random. pref>0 gives preference to notes with high harmonicity, pref<0
-- to notes with low harmonicity, and pref==0 ignores harmonicity (in which
-- case all eligible notes are chosen with the same probability). The prefs
-- parameter can also be modulated by pulse strengths as indicated by prefmod
-- (prefmod>0 lowers preference on weak pulses, prefmod<0 on strong pulses).
