Ableton chain selector not working as designed

I was designing an effect chain rack to play differenct styles of rums from a simpler in a sequence of effects that is triggered randomly by an LFO.

The sequence of effects is not being triggered by the mapped chain selector how it should.

Can anyone inspect this effect rack and diagnose a solution?

Hi, I made an IDM rack giving it away here, hope you find use for it...

The link to the rack is here: https://www.studiobrootle.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/1-Studio-Brootle-IDM-Monosynth.zip

Hope you can use this in your music - it's a fm synth for 'idm' / 'autechre' type sounds. I know both these terms are thrown about too much to describe experimental music, but you know what I mean :)

It's a rack that uses the velocity Midi module to generate random velocities, and then this makes the FM amount random for some glitched out fm sequences.

There's a post explaining how it works here, with the macro controls etc: https://www.studiobrootle.com/how-to-make-an-idm-beat-aphex-twin-autechre-influenced/

Made a drum bus rack to replace Knock. Would love your thoughts (tutorial included)

The rack only works in 12.1 and up (using the clipper and new saturator) it also has one non stock plugin, Khs Transient designer which is free and I’ll leave a link below.

Pioneer DJM Spiral Effect Rack

I've looked all over and can't seem to find a rack that emulates this so I made one. It generally does the same thing as the DJM "Spiral" effect. SCHROEDS DJM Spiral Effect Rack

I made an Operator preset of that Jaydee Plastic Dreams deep house organ... hope you find use for it in your music...

This is influenced by tracks like Jaydee Plastic dreams and MK etc, that famous organ sound...

The rack is here: https://www.studiobrootle.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Studio-Brootle-Deep-House-Organ.zip

It's bascially some stacked, tuned sinewaves in Operator.

There's a video on how to use it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCMeSF59oHk

I made an Ableton Rack for epic pads with parallel filters.... it's free... hope you find use for it...

You can get the racks directly here: https://www.studiobrootle.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Studio-Brootle-Operator-Epic-Pads-Rack-4x-Filters.zip

It's set up so you just need to play one note into it, and it will convert it into a minor chord. The sound comes from the effect chain being split into a few different audio signals and processed with different filters and lfos for a big swelling pad.

There's a video here how to use the rack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7KI1IRf0iE

Hope you find these useful. Any questions, please let me know...

Thanks :)

Can't find the right sliding shelves for my rack setup!

Hey everyone!

I am building my second rack setup for live shows and I am running into the same issue I had with the first build (which I ultimately gave in and compromised on); I can't find the right size sliding shelves to fit what I need. Does anyone know of any places that will build a custom sliding rack shelf for me? The dimensions I need are: 11.75" rail-to-rail depth and it is for normal 19" gear (across). Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Automate effects for one pad within a drum rack?

Hi,, new to ableton here! I am jst wondering, is it at all possible to automate an effect for a single pad, or specified pads within a drum rack? For example, I have a snare, kick and hat in my drum rack. I only want the filter sweep to apply to the kick and snare. Can I do this in a drum rack or do I need to make the snare and kick separate from the hat? Many thanks!!

DJ Easy Mix (Rack to record fast DJ Mixes)

Hi guys,

I made a rack for DJs that you can record mixes really fast + DJM's Pioneer effects.

it has 3 main features>

  • You can mix everything in the Master bus ... you select where the audio from "deck A" come from, and also "deck B" .... so, you will route the audio from your regular channels ...

  • A unique button, that will mix perfectly the transition for both tracks.... I used a max for live plugin (free and included) that are set-up to swap the lows and volumes

  • I cloned the main effects from DJM's Pioneer

I hope you guys enjoy it

Ableton Virtual Instrument Pack

Hey guys, I've just finished university and for my final project I created a Virtual Instrument pack in Ableton Racks. There are 10 instruments ranging from pianos, pads and some warped acoustics.

These VI's all come with integrated macros and presets which let you completely modulate the sound.

If you think this sounds cool then check it out here:

Also, feel free to check out my website for more info.

Let me know what you think :)
