Free Multiband RoastRack for Ableton Live 10
Added 2020-05-17 07:22:38 +0000 UTCDOWNLOAD HERE
So here's a multiband version of the free Gain Rack that has a Saturator, which I posted about yesterday (see previous post).
This one divides the signal into three bands: lows, mids, and highs and also has a Saturator for each band.
When you click on a band, you'll see its gain knob*.
When gain is set to 0, the Saturator is switched off (this is done via mapping browser in Map mode) and it activates whenever any gain is applied.
*LATER EDIT:
I actually edited the rack (thanks to Esa Ruoho's comment!) so that the band gain controls are in the macro knobs so you don't necessarily have to click on a band to access its gain.
This is handy for applying a bit of (or a lot!) or saturation into a signal: this is superduper helpful for adding a bit of tone for basses and drums, for example.
The creation and use of this rack is shown and explained in this video of mine (which also shows you how to create a 808 / "trap" bass quickly with Ableton Analog synth, so I won't repeat it here – this'll only take a few minutes of your time, so do watch it!
Note: you can and should of course tweak the Saturator settings to taste!
This should help you get familiar with @Ableton Live's easy and convenient chains and parallel processing.
PS: I edited the tiers slightly. I guess this'll take a bit of time to get everything correct.
Anything to ask, feel free to!

2020-05-17 08:30:14 +0000 UTCSpeaking of SP sound and drums/bass, would love to see some more content specific to that style ...your most recent Fatgyver release, SSTMSS. Anything in regards to achieving that old school/lofi sound we’ve discussed, I know at least I would love it! Just throwin it out there =)

2020-05-17 08:26:17 +0000 UTCAh, good idea, thanks: I've now updated the rack to have those band gain controls in macros…think it's just clearer that way. Thanks for the idea! And sounds good re: your own edits with Drum Buss etc!

2020-05-17 08:25:46 +0000 UTCFanu, will you be making the SP1200izer available in the near future via Patreon? Must say I really like the concept of finding all of the racks in one easy place (here!)

2020-05-17 08:16:18 +0000 UTCThanks for making this available! The first step I made was to enable macro mapping in the MultibandRoastRack and map the three gains (low, mid, high) to three macro knobs. I guess that was kind of the point of it, getting our hands dirty. I ended up adding a Drum Buss to each band, mapping Boom to each band's gainrackSaturator macro knob and mapping a macro knob in MultibandRoastRack to control each one. I guess next step is to create 3 more knobs, for controlling low, mid, high transients. that'll leave 1 more knob, maybe for boom freq?
