Two Free Ableton Live Packs Inspired by John Cage

Puremagnetik has released two free Ableton Live Packs inspired by the experimental,
avant-garde composer John Cage. The free offerings include Live Packs sourced from an
amplified cactus and a hotel piano, prepared with plastic forks, leaves, seashells,
matchsticks and paperclips.


Amplified Cactus a la John Cage

Amplified Cactus Pack includes a drum rack of "plucked", percussive articulations
and a multisampled rack of "scraped" sounds. Rocks, grass, paper and feathers are
among the exciters used to create these sound varieties.

Amplified Cactus was recorded using a barrel cactus mic'd with TranceAudio surface
pickups and a custom built low-noise preamplifier.

Hotel Room Prepared Piano

Whilst abroad in Israel, Puremagnetik sound developer Micah Frank found his hotel
room equipped with a vintage upright piano. After a few attempts to create a conventional
upright piano recording, the plan was aborted due to outside noise.
Instead, Micah jammed paperclips, seashells, twigs and pieces of plastic into the piano
strings and recorded two octaves of prepared piano tones and noises.

Hotel Room Prepared Piano includes a multisampled Rack of the two-octave piano and
a selection of effects captured during the recording process.


Minimum System Requirements:

-Ableton Live 9.1.0.
-100 MB of free hard disk space.
-500 MB RAM.

KXOMNI-600 - Analog-Phase Distortion Synth - Free

Analog and phase distortion stereo synthesizer with KXMOD system.

Each Layer is composed of two oscillators: a "Phase Distortion Oscillator" (Pdo)
and a classic oscillator. The oscillators signal can be filtered by a multimode filter,
a distortion shaper and modulated by its own feed back signal. All the modulations are
controlled by an envelope generator, the velocity and the keyboard. Then the layers
sound (4 oscillators + 2 filters...) is filtered by a stereo VCF and finally amplified
by a stereo VCA. All the modulations of the oscillators can be modulated by a double LFO.

Synth 1 - Mr Wobble Banks - Free

Mr Wobble Vol 1 is the original bank ("Mr Wobble's Patchbank"), but NB!
some of the patches have been tweaked since it was first released - mostly just a bit of eqing, balancing etc, but one or two are significantly different.
In the unlikely event that you've actually used any of these patches in a project,
it might be a good idea to back up the original Mr Wobble patchbank.

The patches were created in Synth1 v1.12.
Some will sound quite different, or not work at all, if loaded into a previous version.

There's a load of newer (and, imo, better) Mr Wobble patches uploaded
to Big Tick's Zen database.
