_magic flute SSS098




    _magic flute makes anyone a music production wunderkind with just 2 slide whistle wav samples that you can orchestrate with precision in 2 Ableton instruments and 64 sound presets.


    Slide whistles aren’t exactly the instrument of a musical prodigy, but when we paired one with Ableton, we created a magical arrangement element tool. Risers and drops are something every digital songster needs when the same old transitions just aren’t hitting right. We wanted to create something a little different by using an instrument that’s physically designed to create slides up or down, and then use that as a quirky, but super effective starting point for sound design. After a few rounds of design wizardry, we ended up with our little magic flute device for Ableton.


    Add rhythm, stereo movement, saturation, dynamic noise, granulation, and other spectral oddities to your own special potion, or use any one of the 64 preset sound spells and get conjuring your very own musical magic.

    _head room SSS097




      _head room brings watt’s been missing from amp + cabinet simulation in Ableton Live. A singular solution for classic tones featuring 64 presets + easy sound sculpting controls.


      When we realized that Ableton partnered with Softube to create its stock guitar and bass amplifier simulator plug-in, we quickly added to our list of things to make. Bringing all the pieces of amplifier and speaker cabinet simulation in Ableton together with some custom effects that scream “classic” was our goal here. We wanted to be able to just load an Ableton device and have great sounding, easy to use controls, and automation for any classic electric guitar or bass sound, all while using only stock Ableton effects.


      16 macro controls let you dial in everything you’d like to on your amp and effects, with a convenient speaker cabinet selector. The reverb and chorus effects were inspired by those often found built-in to classic amplifiers. 


      Don’t play guitar? Don’t worry, this Ableton device and presets make anything sound cooler, even you.


      Hey, hey, you, you, get off of my cloud.

      _planet phatt SSS095




        _planet phatt is a total taste of the 90s for Ableton, with 18 instruments + 598 samples straight from the phattest rack mount instrument of all time.


        Ahh, the 1990s, when endless sub-genres of music became cool. Eurodance, big beat, trip-hop, new jack swing, neo-soul, g-funk, happy hardcore, drum & bass, techno, trance - some are still with us today, while some are best forgotten. E-mu Systems’ Planet Phatt sound module was the epitome of the 90s aesthetic and technology. A synth with ROM samples was cool and cheap, and so was this phatt pink rack. Yes, it actually existed, and this was a real thing.


        Cody Taylor of Fiend Recordings sampled 18 different patches, including all those classic 90s sampled “stabs” (yeah those ones), plus drums, bass, synths, and keys. After all the phattness was rendered, he ported them into 18 different Ableton instrument devices, and added a little extra phatt for phatt’s sake. The result? Old school phatt meets modern controls and effects.


        Did we mention that Cody also made the rad demo song for this?


        Feel free to use any of the 598 samples outside of the instruments. Try not to use every single one of the 61 “stabs” in the same song.


        Cody is a super phatt producer, songwriter, and studio owner here in Vancouver. He’s also one of the nicest people we know. He probably smiles when he sleeps. Shouts out to Cody for making this collaboration so phatt.


        This is the last use of the word, “phatt” in this product description.
