I love this device. I bought it for Christmas, and it’s legitimately one of the most versatile instruments I’ve ever used. Be careful to save your set before loading samples though, or you can lose everything very easily! One thing I wish the device had was MPE functionality.
@@impulsecontrol another great way I’ve found to use it is to do sound design using synths on C3, resample it, and use Coalescence to explore it like a granulator in Mel mode
that example at 3:30 sold me on this. great for making evolving percussive sounds and I have decades of samples sitting around. Shame it can't help me select them. :)
This concept exists since a few years already. How is that redefining sampling? Its Ableton catching up with the competition instead of any redefinition.
I’m not ableton though, although I’d agree I’m not redefining sampling. I left a longer comment for the concept I was going for when making the device. Also process has existed for much more than a few years
@@impulsecontrol A lot of the tricks are in the Roland VP9000 hardware sampler that does complex and super involved time stretching and pitching techniques that are particular to that machine. It was over £3 grand new back in the 90s now you can pick them up for about £500. They were only a couple of hundred a few years ago but the prices of hardware samplers have rocketed in the last two years. I can do a lot of your tricks in my hardware samplers without breaking a sweat and the sound quality is better than a DAW hands down due to AD/DA converters etc….
Certainly a nice tool, but I feel throwing the term "A.I." around here is a bit much. Frequency analysis, pitch detection, then perhaps saving meta data for each sample, not exactly "wow it can think" type stuff.
I intended this video to be watched from beginning to end so didn’t include characters. Didn’t think there’s a need for before and after examples 🤷🏼♂️
@@impulsecontrol You did a great job showcasing the tool. Just would be helpful for those who are new to easily dissect and better understand this device. But who am I; it’s your video mate. Cheers
@@relative_vie Thanks, I appreciate that. I would recommend watching the official walkthrough via the link in the description. It's by the creator himself, he dives deep into all the details.
It’s not meant as a sample library organizer. It’s meant to be a multi sampler instrument that you drop several samples to blend together. It only goes up to 2000 samples in the event that a user wants to blend a bunch of one shots
@impulsecontrol glecko9241 had already answerd it. I was afraid it would be as with some other new plugins, in which you have to upload your content to a cloud in order to use it.
@@impulsecontrol I don't think I saw anywhere that he said that those were your words, or that he was contradicting you. Think you need a little impulse control.
Ai is such a blanket term nowadays. I was pleased to hear you talk about what it means in this context.
With pleasure, I don’t like to throw fancy terms up into the air with no explanation.

Good advice!

@@lemonhscott7667I see you have experimented with this device plenty 😅 I’ll have to try that myself, thanks!
Fyi you don’t have to take the caution to save your set before using it unless you are dropping in samples that were recorded with an unsaved live set
@@dillonbastan246 true, sorry I didn’t mean to spread slander
Please demo its playability as a granular synth whose grains evolve. Thanks.
It’s not quite a granular synth, it doesn’t have fine control over the individual grains in the same way a granular synth has
that example at 3:30 sold me on this. great for making evolving percussive sounds and I have decades of samples sitting around. Shame it can't help me select them. :)
Path mode is sick! There’s so much space for experimentation
5:48 onwards is wow, this would save you time coming up with new ideas.
It looks like something I’ll never ever use in my life
This device is very much experimental and not for everyone
How does it use AI if you can’t run local AI in Live?
Thanks for this walkthrough. I saw this plugin a couple of days ago but I wasn't sure if I should buy it. You convinced me! ;)
Oh nice! That’s good to hear 😌
Very interesting tool, definitely going to need to give it a try
Such a lovely tool to have fun with!
Bought it yesterday, a more in depth tutorial would be appreciated 🙌🏻
This is as deep as I would go, but you can always watch the official walkthrough via the link in the description

I haven’t seen a sampler In this form before, would you be more specific?

I’m clarifying in the video that the A.I part is about sorting the samples based on their sonic similarity
Nice! will have to give this a try. This sounds like acid psytrance
This will be great for Psytrance!
Does it work in Ableton 10?
In the link provided - scroll down to fin the software requirements
This is like audiostelar ported to max.
🤷🏼♂️
Chapters would be great. You showcased the tool but had there was no true before and after lol

@@impulsecontrol sounds good, thanks mate!
Oh my, 30 though. It’s nice. 30 nice?
Definitely worth the 30 👌🏼
it was good not to have a sample number limitation, my sample collection is more than 200 000 and I sure a lot of you have that much
Every good thing has a limit 🤷🏼♂️

200,000? Holy cow!
yes collecting from 2005@@mrr5835
Bro your eye flicker.. are you using teleprompter ?
I have Nystagmus
upload? the next "sample collector" which takes my samples for free?
No it's offline, upload just means telling the device the directory of samples it should work with
Not sure I quite understand your comment 🤔
@impulsecontrol glecko9241 had already answerd it. I was afraid it would be as with some other new plugins, in which you have to upload your content to a cloud in order to use it.
Definitely not a must to have
I haven’t said it’s a must 🤷🏼♂️
At least the asking price is nowhere near that of, say, Sononym or XO. I could see myself springing for this, but alas it only supports Live. :(

Sad. Leave your humanity at the door. 😔
What’s so sad?
