Wave Drum Kits (WDK) is an astonishing new drum sound library from the MESA+ sound design team. WDK was created from the ground up to work exclusively with Ableton Live. Transient, synthetic timbres were forged into the WDK sound set, creating an exciting and versatile library suitable for a wide range of electronic music styles. A carefully designed waveform is the foundation for each drum sound in the WDK sound library. As each waveform is played back as an oscillator within Sampler, further sculpting of the tone is achieved through Sampler’s sound design functions and Ableton’s powerful built-in effects. The 700 Instrument Racks in the WDK library have been constructed into 40 distinct Drum Racks, each rack loaded with 22 pads. The grouping arrangement of the Drum Rack pads is consistent, allowing for perfect compatibility with the 150 MIDI clips included in the WDK library. These useful and inspiring clips can be freely interchanged with any of the WDK Drum Racks to create new and original combinations for fresh compositions and hot remixes.
MESA+ Waveforming the synth library for Ableton Live
MESA+ "Waveforming" is a multi purpose synth sound library designed for Ableton Live 7. Waveforming is based on wavetables formed by 66 waveforms that act as oscillators for Ableton Simpler. Each waveform has been carefully designed in order to avoid unwanted aliasing-noise and multisampled across the keyboard range to improve sound fidelity. more...
ADD price drop
we proudly announce a permanent 75% price drop for ADD. ADD is now offered at the much lower price of €39 on our web site.
ADD vs 1.2 available for download
Highlights:
Add has now a powerful Arpeggiator. It automatically creates new sequences in real-time by combining MIDI input (preferably chords) and a midi clip.
LFO waveform can now be stored into a specific folder for a easy re-loading.
Scale graph can now be saved and loaded.
The clip key-range is now stored in a clipset file for all clips, clip file now contains only midi data informations.
Bug solved: changing Vst presets caused crashes in certain hosts.
ADD 1.1 Update
Highlights:
A special SSE optimization for Intel and AMD processors has been applied to Version 1.1. The CPU usage is much lower and more efficient now, and using SSE hand-coding we hope to further increase speed and performance in upcoming releases.
The filters in Version 1.0 used 64 bit for calculation which required masses of memory (around 60 MB!!!) as well as more CPU.
In Version 1.1 all filters have been modified to work at 32 bit. This reduces CPU usage without any audible difference.
Modulating Pitch has been optimized to further reduce CPU usage
106 brand new soundsets/patches have been included in ADD 1.1 boxed version. Now the boxed version includes a total of 439 instruments and 57 drumkits.
The LFOs have been enhanced allowing you to choose per Voice or per Sound. You can select ON/OFF/RETRIG. The RETRIG mode is per voice (as ON was in Version 1.0). The new ON mode is per Sound. This uses the CPU more efficiently, especially when modulating a lot. This is important in POLY mode where all voices use the same LFO.
Note: the default mode is ON (per Sound) – this will make certain audio files sound different.
Wave Bundle available for download
MESA+ is proud to announce the Wave Bundle. This package includes WDK and Waveforming at a special price of €43 (almost 30% off the origianal price).
Waveformer changes name to Waveforming
Waveformer is a trademarked name of SynaptiCAD. MESA+ had to change the name to Waveforming in order to avoid confusion in the marketplace. An update to Waveforming is already available for download to all Waveformer custumers.
