Vocodager is a Mac vocoder plug in built with Sonicbirth. It uses the audio in the track to modulate a carrier signal fed to the plug in from a 2nd input.

It’s always “more distortion” or “more cowbell”, but no one ever asks for more reverb. How sad.

Well, if you are with me on this, here’s a reverb fix for you. This week’s rack uses Live Reverb’s Freeze function to generate the decay, allowing super long reverb tails and endless reverb when cranking the Decay all the way up. Also, it adds a M/S EQ for fine control of every aspect of your reverb’s tone.

Bass Monomaker is a Rack that converts the lower part of the spectrum into mono. Very helpful to ensure your bass and kick don’t lose punch due to phase cancellations.

Feedback Theory Synth is a rack created off a sample of a DJ mixer fed back into itself (tone snob note: a Stanton SA3 fed back into itself).

Here’s part of a tutorial by the Scratch Perverts where Prime Cuts explains how to setup a mixer for feedback.

Drum Repeat adds MPC Note Repeat like functionality to your controller. Here’s a vid showing how it works (made using my brand new toy built off CamTwist and Quick Time Pro).

This rack was built based on a post by Robert Henke in the Ableton forums about how Live’s reverb takes the input signal, sums it to mono, then processes it and outputs a stereo reverb.

What the Stereo Reverb does is split the signal into L and R channels and process each with its own reverb. It then adds an M/S EQ to allow independent tone control between the reverb’s center and its sides.

Drums Divider is a tool that lets you divide a breakbeat into Kick, Snare, and Hats / Cymbals. Very handy for those times when you want to remove the hats or just process the kicks but don’t want to go into chopping up the break.

This time it’s a formant filter. It simulates the filtering of the vocal tract for the vowels.
