Overview

Name | Version: Empires - risers and drops designer - full 1.0 1.0
Author: nelgabriel
Device Type: Audio Effect
Description: I got tired of spending all that time making white noise based risers and drops, so I've made that very useful white noise risers & drops generator.

the two large buttons allow you to start risers and drops
the "link" button on the display in between will make the drop start when the riser end.
the drop and riser controls are below (yellow and blue panels)

RISER key control
"cut" will end the riser before the end of the next bar (if linked, the drop will start at the beginning of the next bar as expected)
you can choose if the cut only affects the sound of the plugin or mute the entire ableton track

DROP key control
the lower smaller knobs control a "pre-ramp" before the main ramp, to create some kind of an attack in the first few ms of the drop, this may be refined in the full version

C and D key will start risers and drops
I forgot which one I set but there's a C/D pair that start the processes instantly, and an octave below, they start the processes in sync with ableton

the "b e a t" buttons below the rise/fall main button determine on which quarter note in the bar the process will start. if linked, the drop "b e a t" buttons have no incidence.

Select length separately for risers and drops
Select frenquency start & end separately
most controls are independent
LFO Modulation (one LFO, independently assignable)
Sync'd to ableton
"Cut" feature can cut the riser before the end at the plugin level or ableton track level (automated track mute)
Autopan feature
You can select a track in ableton that can be muted during the rise process
You can also select another track in ableton to be solo'd during the cut process

there's lots of controls, I'd do a video manual but I won't be able to until january 25

GUI appears. Midi creates no sound.

Is Ableton playing ? The start of the process is synchronized to Ableton so it has to be playing for the device to make sound

Yes. It's playing. Ableton Live 10.1.4 Suite

This plugin was made on Max 9 and Ableton 12, there’s quite a big gap between Ableton 10s max version and Ableton 12’s 

I’m guessing there’s missing elements in the version of max that is running on Ableton 10.

It may work on 11, but I’m doubtful.

Did you manage to have the demo version work ?

looks cool! but it is not making sound on my end either :(







the gui loads, but no sound. i tried in arrangement and session view, with and without midi and playback running. I also tried the demo version and that one has the same issue on my end. i am running ableton 12 on windows but maybe the problem is that i have max 8.6 and need to update. i will try that soon and get back to you!
