| Description: | Celium – A New Realm of Granular Sound Videos: https://youtu.be/iRxrN0LQvXE https://youtu.be/a42kq7V9MNw https://youtu.be/XRf5LB5KN-s Celium is an advanced Max for Live granular instrument designed for deep sonic exploration, from lush cinematic textures to abstract experimental layers. It offers a highly flexible grain engine with precise control over every detail of your sound. At its core is a dual-buffer engine with Live and Freeze modes, each supporting two audio sources. You can blend between sources using crossfading, inter-grain transitions (where a single grain starts from Source 1 and ends in Source 2), and per-source grain probability. Create rich granular detail with up to 70 grains per second and grain durations up to 2 seconds. Shape each grain using per-grain effects, including: Four types of distortion (with probability control) Ring modulation (with probability control) Panning Randomized filtering Pitch processing is equally detailed, with pitch shift and spread up to ±12 semitones, selectable spread direction, major/minor pitch quantization, and probabilistic pitch randomness. Further shape your grains with vibrato, bend, jitter, and stretch over grain life. Trigger grains using simple, random, or Euclidean rhythmic systems. Choose from multiple playback directions including forward, reverse, and palindrome modes. Celium is now more powerful and user-friendly than ever: you can save and recall presets, interpolate between two presets in real time, and map virtually every parameter using Ableton’s native tabs, number boxes, and other interface elements. The new Freeze mode allows grains to be triggered via MIDI controller or piano roll, and users can drop their own samples into freeze buffers. Freeze buffer sizes are fully resizable, giving unprecedented control over granular sound design. Celium Max for Live device is compatible with both Ableton Live 11 and 12 (Max 8 and 9). Key Features: ⚙️ Dual-Buffer Engine Live & Freeze modes Each mode supports 2 audio sources Morph between sources with source crossfade Per-grain source probability for randomized grain generation Inter-grain crossfade: A single grain can begin in Source 1 and end in Source 2 Freeze mode with MIDI or piano-roll triggering Drop samples directly into freeze buffers Resizable freeze buffer size 🎛️ Grain Control Up to 70 grains per second Grain duration up to 2 seconds Multiple playback directions: Forward, Reverse, Palindrome Grain envelope shaping with adjustable window curves Visual grain display for intuitive feedback 🌀 Per-Grain Effects Per-Grain Distortion with 4 unique algorithms Per-Grain Ring modulation Per-Grain stereo panning Per-grain filtering with randomization options Per-Grain pitch vibrato, Per-Grain pitch bend Per-Grain pitch jitter Per-Grain stretch across each grain’s lifetime Probability control available for all effects 🎵 Pitch Modulation & Processing Pitch shift and spread up to ±12 semitones Selectable spread direction (up, down, both) Pitch quantization (major & natural/harmonic minor scales) Pitch randomness control with probability targeting 🔁 Grain Triggering Systems Simple triggering Random triggering Euclidean rhythm-based triggering for structured repetition and patterns 💾 Presets & Workflow Save and recall presets Interpolate between two presets in real time Fully mappable parameters using Ableton’s native interface 🔍 Interface & Visual Feedback Organized sections for triggering, pitch, pitch modulation and effects LFO and automation mapping for all parameters Visual grain display for real-time feedback |
