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?

2024-01-09 12:25:35 +0000 UTC View PostHello 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 tomorrow.

3D things go swirly swirly in space. Hope you enjoy. Download attached.
2024-01-08 17:06:26 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone. The pitch delay concept gets the Function treatment. Total 80s SciFi mayhem. Download attached for you to test.
2024-01-08 10:16:25 +0000 UTC View PostHello 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 enjoy and see you tomorrow.
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 what I like to do when I don't have any ideas. There's also no audio effects. The whole feel and sound ...

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 below.
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, its about music, so I thought I'd take the idea into a kind of listening party/commentary on some of...
2024-01-04 20:33:17 +0000 UTC View PostHello 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.

2024-01-04 17:26:02 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone. The Function Slide was rubbish so I've made it better. Now it does Aphex style bouncing balls vibes with realtime streaming audio. Download attached. Enjoy.
2024-01-04 10:30:29 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone. Tonights Download is only Collision, which is doing kick, snare, ride, bassline, chords and plinky lead. No audio effects. A lot of midi effects. Only Collision. Download link below. Enjoy and see you again tomorrow.
Hello. Please see attached a Function Freeze update. Please test and report back on the performance.

In this Max Tutorial we look at ways of processing textures in various contexts to make your visuals look a bit more interesting. I'm going to try and do one Max patch video a week cause I love Max Max is awesome.

2024-01-03 11:12:34 +0000 UTC View PostHello 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 elements and uses follow actions to suggest arrangement ideas. Hope you enjoy.

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 enjoy tinkering in Ableton in front of the TV at the end of the day.
Here is a quick drum rack th...

2023-12-31 17:53:13 +0000 UTC View PostHello 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 the position of the buffer so can make for mad resampling of incoming audio and freezing. Enjoy. See ...
2023-12-30 23:43:40 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone. Here are some updates and maybe some I left out first time. More to come. A few new features added but otherwise the same just cleaned up a bit. Enjoy. Download attached.
2023-12-30 10:05:54 +0000 UTC View PostHello 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 percussive and non percussive transient sequences with it. Also basslines sort of. Please test and hope you ...

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 I'll leave for you to discover on your own.
Also, if you find yourself making anything fun wit...

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 bombs for you so that we can all become the best weirdo rave noise makers in the universe.

Yes everyone. It's that time again to drink snowballs and play Scrabble whilst suffering gout and then falling asleep during the King's speech. This MKTFXMAS23 is brought to you by MKTF veteran Turismo Blu. Set your reminders and lets raise some money to help the homeless.

Bob Bell did a fantastic job capturing and editing the vibes for the first ever More Kicks Than Friends Live in Cardiff, and you can watch it here.
Pretty much everyone involved in this whole thing either is currently, or has been a patron on this page. Lets all bang our heads together and make this grow. Love to you all.
