_kick chemist is a kick drum designer for Ableton with a twist, with 127 kick samples to seamlessly blend beaters + bodies + tails, then reshape and saturate your concoction.
With 127 Subsocial kick drum samples, and over 2 million possible combinations of beater + body + tail, your kicks will literally never be the same again. By allowing you to blend the components of individual kick samples together into a new hybrid kick, you’ll have total control over a vast array of bass drum formulas as new catalysts for creativity. Go full indie normcore, or totally hardcore - the choice yours.
Use any of the 128 kick presets provided, or blend your own kick elements together. Feel free to add a little more shape and contour to your creation to distill things further. Add some custom drum drive we created in Ableton 12 Suite’s new saturator by blending your way through 6 Roar presets, going from doughy drive, to supersonic superabundance.
Take further control of this kick designer as an instrument with 12 simple device macro knobs to dial in your perfect kick. You can play any kick chromatically and use your kicks as other unique percussion elements, or even morph your kick into other kicks over time with simple automation.
Can you kick it? Yes you can.

_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.

_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.
