Last week, a new cat has been added to the Max for Cats collection. BENGAL, a semi-modular FM synth, available on Ableton. As you may know, there are also great Max for Live devices to be had on Sonic Bloom. To celebrate the release of BENGAL, I’ve combined 5 awesome Max for Cats freebies for you to download. Free of charge or for a donation if you feel so inclined.
Haunted Verb
HauntedVerb by Max for Cats Bats creates ambiences from beyond. Either tweak it to your own claustrophic needs or use one of the presets. Perfect for Halloween, but also always handy when you could do with some eerie, haunting or downright scary sounds in your tracks. HauntedVerb requires Live 9 and Max for Live (6.1) and comes in a self-installing Live Pack that contains various presets.
NoteTrap
Note trap is a free Max for Cats MIDI effect which lets you create musical patterns in various musical scales and modes. The pattern can be run in sync or free to your Live Set, you can set the velocity data, the direction and more. It’s ideal to add some minimalism and/or serialism to your music.
Ploid!
Dialectic Machine, meditation of the suburbs. Anti-Histogram decomposer, interactive pseudo-navigation enhancement device. Logos machinery for composing scenery.
Verbotron
The Verbotron uses the original Gigaverb algorithm by Juhana Sadeharju which is also known as “Gverb” in Audacity. It also features a handy visual representation of the reverb parameters. Verbotron requires Live 9 and Max for Live (6.1) and comes in a self-installing Live Pack that contains 9 presets.
Xfade Bus Sytem 2000
The ‘Xfade Bus System 2000’ consists of two audio effects, the Xfade Send that allows for crossfading between two tracks when connected with the other one, the Xfade Receive. There are 8 possible buses for up to 8 submixes you can individually crossfade in between. Simply choose a unique bus each time for each two tracks you want to crossfade. The devices are Push and MIDI controller ready. The ‘Xfade Bus System 2000’ requires Live 9 and Max for Live (6.1).
