No Idea What I Just Made

Sampler and a lot of tweaking about is all you need really to make a god awful blooper reel of complete buffoonery. Is it actually Musique concrète though?

Only One Midi Note and One Grand Piano

Hello everyone. Tonight's daily Ableton download isn't as simple as the title may suggest. One midi note is used to trigger multiple chains of midi effects to make the piano play itself in some sort of frantic piece of modern classical composition or something. Sit back and enjoy. See you tomorro...

3D things go swirly swirly in space. Hope you enjoy. Download attached.

Only Wavetable.

Hello everyone. Today's only Ableton download comes to you in the form of this wibbly "euphorelectro" (yes I just made that up) jam using only Wavetable. Everything is done with Wavetable. I was pleased to discover the Shimmer preset under the Unison menu. Lovely stuff. Download below. Hope you e...

Only Simpler (featuring Roland SH-101)

Hello everyone. Today's Ableton download comes in the form of only using instances of Simpler, loaded with samples I took from my SH-101. Again, it's another one of these self playing things where midi effects decide what does and does not happen, in conjunction with follow actions, basically wha...

Exploring Granulator 3.

It's really rather good.

I made a 90s Rave Banger in one Sampler.

This is something I've been meaning to try for a while. Could I make a whole track in one instance of Ableton's Sampler? Well, I gave it my best shot, and used some juicy 90s rave samples in the process. This post also has a bonus project that was me practising this idea. Hope you enjoy. Download...

Album Commentary Podcast/Livestream

Hello everyone. You may remember I mentioned an idea about doing album commentaries only on Patreon. I love a movie commentary, like its an addiction, I'll fall asleep listening to Ridley Scott prattle on about how great he is for making Blade Runner anytime, but this Patreon isn't about movies, ...

Only Breaks

Hello everyone. Tonight's download is only breaks, and some follow actions, and a load of beat repeats and LFOs wizzing around the faders. Hope you enjoy and see you again tomorrow. Download below.

Only Drift

Hello everyone. Welcome to today's download. This is an AFX style ambient electro thing and everything was made using Drift. I think I might have a spell of making some tracks using only one Ableton stock instrument. Perhaps tomorrow it'll be Only Operator. Who knows. This has some generative ele...

Stable Audio Drum Rack

Happy New Year everyone. Hope it was good for you. Thank you for your ongoing support. It means a lot, especially during this recent difficult time.

I am going to try and get back into posting Live sets as often as possible (lets see if I can do one a day) as I forgot how much I used to enj...

Function Freeze by Ned Rush

Hello everyone. Another Function device for testing. I've always wanted to get into FFT but my brain couldn't handle it, but I've dipped my toes and I'm ready to plunge deeper. A good starting point seemed to try and add the function idea to an FFT style delay/buffer. The function scrubs around t...

Function Drum by Ned Rush

Hello everyone. Hope you had a nice holiday. This is Function Drum. Following in the theme of using a function to plot events, this time I'm using one to not only sequence but also sound design a drum sound. It can do kicks, snares, hats, and fm percussion, and you can create interesting percussi...

Functions by Ned Rush for testing.

Hello everyone. I have some new devices I am going to release with Isotonik in the New Year, but for now you, my esteemed Patrons, can try out a handful of some early versions. These are audio effects, or "Sound Transformers". All you need to do is hit play and run some audio into them. The rest ...

2023 Christmas Wrap

Hello everyone. This is the 2023 Wrap up post. Whilst it's been a very up and down year for me, I wouldn't have been able to do the things I've done if it wasn't for you and your generous support. So I thank you so very much!! And in the New Year I plan to continue to deliver the finest content b...
