N-KICK-GEN & N-SNARE-GEN (Patreon)

N-KICK-GEN FOR ABLETON LIVE 11.1 AND 11.0 IS HERE

!!This rack REQUIRES all drum layer samples from the Patreon Sample Pack Vol.3 to work!! A tutorial on how to install this rack is inside the sample pack folder!

This ableton live instrument rack goes hand in hand with the Patreon Sample Vol. 3 released Drum Layers! 

N-KICK-GEN allows you to create your own drum samples using 3 different drum layers: Transient(TRA), Body(BODY) and Top(TOP). 

All three layers combined will result in a hard hitting, clean kick drum that will cut through your mix! N-KICK-GEN works by letting you cycle through 15 different transients, bodies and tops which will sum up to a finished kick drum!  

Making Kick Drum Samples from scratch is a time consuming and sometimes tedious process! This rack streamlines that process down to its core components and offers you a handful of high quality drum layers to choose from! 

N-KICK-GEN has a variety of extra settings to better mix and layer these three components, offers an additional EQ to further shape your kick drum and lets you finalize your drum sample with a compressor and transparent soft clipper! On top of just mixing between different drum layers you can pitch both the body and top layer individually to get even more variations and possible outcomes in a matter of seconds! Utilizing the "Rand" button next to the "Map" button will randomize all macros and auto-generate kicks for you!                    

Very Important: You need to play a C3 NOTE in order for N-KICK-GEN to work correctly! 

FEATURES: 

• TRA: This lets you choose 1 out of 15 Kick Transient Samples. 
• TRA DRIVE: Lets you soft clip the transient to increase its perceived loudness! This can help bring out your kick in the mix and level it to the other parts if necessary. 
• BODY: This lets you choose 1 out of 15 Kick Body Samples.  
• BODY PITCH: Lets you pitch the body. There is a +- 6 semitone range to limit the quality degradation that comes with pitching samples up or down! 
• BODY SHIFT: This lets you shift/fade-in the body in time! Use in combination with an Oscilloscope! Transients can vary in length (4-10ms) so the body needs to be adjusted accordingly! BODY SHIFT allows you to shift the sample away from the transient in order to get a cleaner sum! 
• TOP: This lets you choose 1 out of 15 Kick Top Samples. 
• TOP PITCH: Lets you pitch the body. This uses a frequency shifter instead of traditional pitching methods due to how high frequency noise-based sounds can quickly lose high frequency information when being pitched down. 
• TOP SHIFT: This lets you shift/fade-in the top layer in time! Use in combination with an Oscilloscope! Transients can vary in length (4-10ms) so the body needs to be adjusted accordingly! BODY SHIFT allows you to shift the sample away from the transient in order to get a cleaner sum! 
• TOP TIGHT: Lets you fade-out the top sample! This is very useful for tighter kick drums that do not need a big amount of top frequencies! 
• TOP COMP: This lets you compress and reduce the rms of the top layer, resulting in a thicker seemingly louder top sample! 
• COMP: Lets you compress the summed kick drum as a whole! this can be useful to glue all the different components together! Not that it can reduce the final output volume so try to compensate using the soft clip macro! 
• SOFT CLIP: A transparent soft clipper which will let you saturate your drum sample to 0db! This is very useful if you want harder hitting dirtier drum samples! In combination with the EQ8 you can automatically saturate any frequencies directly into the soft clipper when boosting them!

This ableton live instrument rack goes hand in hand with the Patreon Sample Vol. 3 released Drum Layers! 

N-SNARE-GEN allows you to create your own drum samples using 3 different drum layers: Transient(TRA), Body(BODY) and Tail(TAIL). 

All three layers combined will result in a hard hitting, clean snare drum that will cut through your mix! N-SNARE-GEN works by letting you cycle through 15 different transients, bodies and tops which will sum up to a finished Snare Drum!  

Making Snare Drum Samples from scratch is a time consuming and sometimes tedious process! This rack streamlines that process down to its core components and offers you a handful of high quality drum layers to choose from! 

N-SNARE-GEN has a variety of extra settings to better mix and layer these three components, offers an additional EQ to further shape your Snare drum and lets you finalize your drum sample with a compressor and transparent soft clipper! On top of just mixing between different drum layers you can pitch both the body and tail layer individually to get even more variations and possible outcomes in a matter of seconds! Utilizing the "Rand" button next to the "Map" button will randomize all macros and auto-generate snares for you!                    

Very Important: You need to play a C3 NOTE in order for N-SNARE-GEN to work correctly! 

FEATURES: 

• TRA: This lets you choose 1 out of 15 Snare Transient Samples. 
• TRA DRIVE: Lets you soft clip the transient to increase its perceived loudness! This can help bring out your Snare in the mix and level it to the other parts if necessary. 
• BODY: This lets you choose 1 out of 15 Snare Body Samples.  
• BODY PITCH: Lets you pitch the body. There is a +- 6 semitone range to limit the quality degradation that comes with pitching samples up or down! 
• BODY SHIFT: This lets you shift/fade-in the body in time! Use in combination with an Oscilloscope! Transients can vary in length (2-8ms) so the body needs to be adjusted accordingly! BODY SHIFT allows you to shift the sample away from the transient in order to get a cleaner sum! 
• TAIL: This lets you choose 1 out of 15 Snare Tail Samples. 
• TAIL PITCH: Lets you pitch the body. This uses a frequency shifter instead of traditional pitching methods due to how high frequency noise-based sounds can quickly lose high frequency information when being pitched down. 
• TAIL SHIFT: This lets you shift/fade-in the tail layer in time! Use in combination with an Oscilloscope! Transients can vary in length (4-10ms) so the body needs to be adjusted accordingly! BODY SHIFT allows you to shift the sample away from the transient in order to get a cleaner sum! 
• TAIL TIGHT: Lets you fade-out the tail sample! This is very useful for tighter snare drums and mixdowns that are more dry! 
• TAIL HP: This lets you highpass the tail layer! Very helpful when trying to mix tails that have a lower frequency resonance. 
• COMP: Lets you compress the summed snare drum as a whole! this can be useful to glue all the different components together! Not that it can reduce the final output volume so try to compensate using the soft clip macro! 
• SOFT CLIP: A transparent soft clipper which will let you saturate your drum sample to 0db! This is very useful if you want harder hitting dirtier drum samples! In combination with the EQ8 you can automatically saturate any frequencies directly into the soft clipper when boosting
