Update:  Live now supports the Faderport.

Bidule patch enabling the use of the PreSonus FaderPort in Live. With the help of this custom Bidule patch it converts FaderPort messages into Remote SL commands.

This is a 100% transparent Four Band Frequency Divider Audio Rack for Live. Unlike the factory multiband live presets this keeps your audio integrity intact. This can be used for frequency dependent FX & mastering purposes. This uses subtractive phase techniques as opposed to minimal phase EQ. In other words the basic signal flow design framework wont change or color your audio. You can test this by double bussing & inverting the phase.

Updated 4-21-08: New design with 24db filters & improved signal flow for lowend separation. Still maintains 100% transparency. Best for extreme separation processing.

Instrument Rack/Impulse Preset – Glitch focused kit pack. Created from a favorite trick of mine. The samples are created by importing (.txt, .midi, .pdf, ext.) really anything i can find as RAW 24bit audio Data. I then Edit & Tweak out the samples. Pure Digital chaos. Nothing analog about this kit!
