Sonic Bloom has announced a creative toolkit that is designed to enable you to transform static parameters into evolving, expressive movements.
A collection of 8 modulators and 3 mapping devices, Modulators Plus for Ableton Live brings together a wide range of modulation approaches, from pseudo-chaotic equations and Euclidean rhythms to gesture recording, MIDI and audio triggers, and much more.
You can extend the modulation devices further using multi-lane mappers and a dedicated Map Expander. The result is a flexible and user-friendly pack that encourages exploration while remaining practical for sound design, composition and live performance.
Whether you want subtle motion, complex rhythmic modulation, or unpredictable results, each device focuses on a distinct way of generating and shaping control data that can be mapped across Live and third-party plug-ins.
Modulators Plus features
- Chaos Mod: 12 pseudo-chaotic equations for generating modulation data for XYZ movement.
- EuclidLFO: Generates a periodic waveform from a Euclidean pattern to modulate parameters.
- Gest XY: A gesture recorder and player whose dimensions can be mapped individually to up to three targets each.
- KeyMod: Note based modulator in which up to 8 notes can toggle, ramp, loop, gate and randomise parameters.
- LFO S: Extremely lightweight mini LFO with 9 waveforms.
- LFX: Lets you combine two LFOs in a variety of mathematical way to create complex modulation.
- P-SEQ: 32-step modulation step sequencer that can be synchronised with Live’s transport, or triggered by incoming MIDI or audio sources.
- Trigger Mod: Combines audio input from the track with a transient threshold detector to trigger a random generator, which can be mapped to any parameter for modulation. It can also generate MIDI notes that can be used as input sources on another MIDI track via track routing.
- Curve Modulate: Multi-Mapper with Breakpoint Envelopes.
- Map Expander: Allows to route the output of Modulator Plus devices into it to offer more modulation targets. Compatible with: ChaosMod, EuclidLFO, Gest XY, KeyMod, LFO S and LFX.
- Modul8te: Multi-Mapper with Lag Generator.
Available for Ableton Live 12.3 or higher (Suite or Standard with Max for Live 9), Modulators Plus is priced €39.99 EUR.
