On the other hand, it's a bit wonky, still very much attuned to the developer's personal setup, and VST support is. Heck, it supports a custom control surface for the Ableton Push 2 that's both functional and attractive. It's also a lot easier to immediately grasp than VCV Rack or Voltage Modular's skeuomorphic interfaces. There's loads of inbuilt widgets to play with, almost every parameter can have a modulator, there's a bunch of odd sequencing and modulation devices. It's cross-platform, a tiny download (22mb! when was the last desktop audio app you downloaded that small?!) and seemed to work well across the range of cruddy hand-me-down computers and massive gaming machines my students are using for online learning. I discovered this on Thursday and immediately rewrote my lesson plan for my 2nd year sound design students based on it. Posted by DeepSeaHaggis at 2:43 PM on Septem I rather wish Cycling 74 and Ableton would merge so complex routings under-the-hood, and straight-forward performance UIs could encompass all of Ableton.ĭoes this have a presentation mode? And.
What's relevant for this product (and for Audiomulch for that matter) is that Max differentiates between presentation and patch mode where the latter shows everything (well, at the level of your current patch) and the former formats your UI components for easy interaction. Sidechaining, for instance, I just frequently forgot that I had done that.īut last year I purchased Ableton Suite with a full Max license and, oh my word, it's fucking college degree of a learning curve but it has everything. I had a free copy of Ableton but their routing is so non-intuitive. Posted by njohnson23 at 2:04 PM on SeptemĪ couple of years ago, when I started (trying) to make the computer music, I started out with Audiomulch (which now seems defunct), largely because visualizing routing with cables was how I was familiar in the non-computer world and I could pirate it. you can make hand tailored noise machines like all those Savile Row audio engineers make. This a a very interesting time for electronic music. Another similar thing is Audulus, which Bespoke looks like. It promises a better UI, and the ability to run as a VST2 plugin in your digital audio workstation (I hate saying DAW.) There will be a free and paid for Pro version. After a long wait, 2.0 has been announced, with a release in November.
Rack is now 1.0 and free, with purchasable module packages to supplement the 2000+ free ones. It has a pretty apparent UI, 2000+ modules of all kinds, and I have interfaced it to hardware modular synths, with the required DC-coupled interface. With VCV Rack, I have built ginormous contraptions. It does use VST2 plugins, but it went off to never never land while scanning all my plugins, so I force quit it. Lots to play with, but it's not clear how you could interface this with anything else, other than audio out and in. There are a lot of modules, but I couldn't find a basic mixer. The inputs are not clearly designated on the modules.
Given that it is Mac, Linux, and Windows, it supplies its own UI, which is quirky at best.
