Isotonik Studios has introduced Dillon Bastan’s Max for Live instrument designed for sample mangling, generative melodies, and glitchy effects.
Superposition features a probabilistic concatenative multisampler with built-in multi-effects and modulation options.
It centers around transitioning between playback States; each State essentially is a preset for playback (including playing different samples), FX, and modulation settings/mappings. Additionally there are three playback modes (normal, grain, spectral) for time stretching and freezing effects.
You can transition between playback States using the Markov probability system or through MIDI notes (or both simultaneously!). The device is pretty open ended and has many uses but it is great for sample mangling/cut up, generative melodies, jungle DnB and other breakbeats, glitchy FX/rhythms/textures, ambient progressions, and quite a lot more depending how you set it up!
Superposition for Ableton Live 10 or higher (Suite or Standard with Max for Live installed) is available to purchase for £18.50 GBP inc. VAT.
