Never heard about Noatikl, but of course you can set up generative  
processes in Max. But you can do that i Ableton Live  as well.  
Whenever there is a random generating module available you can start  
patching. In Live it's called "Clip Launch Follow Action". The way  
clips are launched (into play - a clip can be an audio loop, a looped  
MIDI sequence, a one-shot something, controller data for something  
else etc etc) can be set with a chosen probability. And there are  
nine alternatives for where the "play head" shall go next.

Numerology is also about to get good randomization. And Mobius have  
randomization capability in scripting. There are probably many more  
options that I just don't get to think of right now...
