https://youtu.be/qGT475W6dD4 When we say tainted, we mean these reverb presets aren't typical, or even necessarily perfectly sparkling specimens of spaces. The idea of convolution reverb is simple enough: you first profile the “space” by sending a signal into it, and then capture the space’s “response” to that sound. Theoretically, the space does not need to be a real space, or even a hardware reverb. The response of the space, or hardware unit adds tonal, harmonic, textural, dynamic, and time-based changes to the sound over a period of time. We wanted to take the idea of “convolution reverb” a bit further and get creative with it. We captured impulse responses (IR) from many different hardware devices including:
Spring Reverbs
Guitar Pedal Reverbs
Modular Eurorack Reverbs
Rackmount & Modular Eurorack Delays (BBD + Digital)
Modular Eurorack Filters, Distortions, Modulators Etc)
Hardware Compressors (Solid State, Optical, Tube etc)
Hardware Equalisers
Hardware Vocoder (SVC-350)
We took the 113 different IR files that were captured and designed 128 different space-based effects with them. Each preset typically blends 2 different IR flies together to create new effects that would otherwise not be possible. We created presets that impart subtle dynamic and tonal changes like an EQ or compressor, to the the shortest of spaces that emulate line feedback, to weird phaser and flanger effects, to hybrid delays with reverbs, all the way to the longest, lushest atmospheres. Wrap all of this in a custom Ableton Device Group with macro controls and presets, and sprinkle in some extras to add texture and movement, and you’ve got yourself a huge, flexible set of tainted spaces inside Ableton. Want more? Use the IR library files and create your own effects. With 113 new IR files, the possibilities are practically unlimited. It takes great deal of courage to hear the world in all its tainted glory, and even more to love it. • Minimum Requirements: Ableton 11.3.x Standard/Suite. • 128 Ableton presets as Ableton 11.3+ Group Devices (ADG files). • 113 96kHz/24bit Impulse Responses (AIF). • 100% Royalty-Free. • Designed in Vancouver, Canada by Subsocial Studios.

_spatial awareness gives you 64 spatialized Vital sound presets using a custom 850MB library of ambisonic field recordings. Vital is a free, open source, and highly capable, “Spectral warping wavetable synth.” It’s free to download and use, and our presets work with the free version of Vital . You may not already know about Vital, but you probably want to.
Download Vital for free here. We have a large untapped library of spatial audio recordings, so some are being put to work here, in our first preset pack for Vital as sample layers paired with Vital’s built-in wavetables. We designed a variety of sounds around the sample layers that evoke spaces, textures, and ambiences that add a special kind of depth to the sound design. All sounds were originally recorded ambisonically, which we used to create 2-channel binaural versions for these presets. The music demo uses only presets from this pack, so you can hear the instant vibe these space layers create. You can also watch a patch demo/walkthrough here: (coming soon) We plan on making more spatial audio based presets for Vital, so enjoy this first batch. We recommend to update to the latest version of Vital to ensure compatibility with our presets. See our help page or the README file in your download for instructions on how to install your presets. • 64 Vital synth sound presets in 1 .vitalbank file. • Spatially recorded & binaurally encoded atmospheric noise layer library (850MB) • 100% Royalty-Free. • Designed in Vancouver, Canada by Subsocial Studios.

_pickup lines makes Ableton's, "Electric" instrument a real charmer with 128 presets, custom chord and rhythm modes, plus dreamy lo-fi FX.
Electric for Ableton models 2 famous electric pianos, and we made 64 presets for each because they both love the flattery. We made this instrument with performance and tweak-ability in mind.
Chord mode brings common chords to one note performance, with our own special voicing for each. We created these chords with beat makers and producers who lust after lo-fi hip-hop study type beats.
Using chord mode with the simple auto rhythm and note length controls will get you as lucky as any player can hope to be.
Dial in some customized vintage style delay, reverb, and some vinyl distortion, and you'll be up all night making sweet love with this gorgeous instrument.
Come here often? Then go buy our Forever plan for lifetime access to all our sounds forever.
