Free Ableton effect and instrument racks

Free Ableton effect and instrument racks

I wanted to share with you a bunch of great goodies! A wonderfull

thing about the Ableton community is that they love to share their

creative inventions. I found these in the forums and wanted to share

them with you.

Below are a whole mess of custom made instrument racks and effect

racks!

I haven’t put all these to the test, but would love feedback from

you as to which ones you had the most fun with.

Enjoy these! I hope this give you weeks of inspiration

and experimentation!

Happy music making!

Effect Racks

_________________________

Masher

By fatrabbit: 8 Beat Repeats mapped to a chain control so you

can use a knob on your MIDI controller to select which one

you want.

Sweepable Crossover

by ethios4: The Sweepable Crossover allows you to apply an

effects chain to either side of a crossover that can be moved

>freely with perfect transparency.

Glitch 3 as an audio rack

modified by fatrabbit

This rack uses and requires supatrigga.

Beat Divider One 1/8/07

Beat Divider Two

by ethios4: With these racks, each beat has its own chain.

Therefore you can apply different effects to each beat, over

1 or 2 measures depending on the rack. This is accomplished

by a series of autopans – you can adjust each beat so that it

only plays the first 16th note, 8th note, or entire beat by turning

>on/off the leftmost autopan, or even adding additional autopans

on the left end of the chain, according to the pattern already set.

DJ-EQ 2/11/07

by hoffman2k: “Some people don’t seem to be happy with EQ3 for

Dj’ing and find EQ4/8 too complex to set up. So here’s my attempt

at a DJ EQ. The requests were only as specific as: “It should not

color the sound” and “0dB should be in the middle”.

With those 2 features in mind, I built the rack.”

Requires Dual Comp AU

Blitchmyglitch & Scratcher 4/6/07

by Airwave:

Blitchmyglitch is a realtime glitcher that moves all the time.

It uses a lot of different fx, redux, beatrepeat, grain delay…

quite enjoyable if you like supercollider and livecut stuff.

Scratcher is a tool that lets you program scratches, turntable

stop fx, reverses based on any loop that you will load in it.

It’s extremely addictive and funny.

InstantChip 4/19/07

by Idonotlikebroccoli: Here’s a quick and fun one if you

wanna make that chip-tune whatever kind of thing. It’s a

MIDI effect rack which consists of an arpeggiator and two

pitch plugins.

Oper808

by mdk: its an early version of his 808 emulator built using just

>Operator and Live’s built in fx.

Requires Ableton’s Operator

AM drum kit 1/4/07

by AM: It’s an acoustic drum kit… with tweakable mic positions…

sounds strange i know, but you get the idea once you see it in action.

It’s a large download, and it’s processor intensive…. but it’s pretty

good for getting a range of Acoustic drum sounds…. and also for

messing with until you get really odd sounds.

Angstrum Drum Player 2/5/07

by angstrum: Really cool drum kit using the included waveforms

in Lives sample library. Set up well for electronic music- lots of

presence.

Drum Selektor 2/14/07

by wollej: Another small drum rack for selecting different kicks, snares, toms

via macro controls. Built with 8 instances of Impulse and pitch/scale plugins

for selecting the samples in the Impulse players.
