"i've been messing around with using ableton live as a hub for sending control voltages (CV) out to my analog gear. it's fun and very flexible. best of all, it's free, cross platform, and can be done now while everybody's waiting for volta to released."
ableton live & motu CV control of frostwave resonator
YouTube via tremorcore
"more geeky CV crap using ableton live and a handful of LFO type wav files to modulate external analog gear.
(if you're not interested in the "how" and just want to see the frostwave spaz out, jump to 3:30 or so.) this stuff *only* works with MOTU audio interfaces (see: volta). this is an easy and free way to send beat-synced LFOs to your outboard modular gear; moogerfoogers, sherman filterbank, little phatty... anything with a CV input.
the LFO wav files used in the vid can be downloaded here:

i recommend setting the warp method to "Re-Pitch" to keep LFOs smooth at extreme BPMs. or don't... and get cool glitches."
frostwave resonator as bass synth. (ableton live + motu)
"more of the CV stuff.
here, the frostwave resonator becomes a bass synth. ableton live's simpler and drum racks are used to send CV signals to the frostwave and make it "playable" via midi. check out my other frostwave vid if you want a better understanding of what's going on.
you can download the ableton project used in this vid here
you'll probably have to install sonalksis' "free-g" plug-in if you want the key pitch tracking to work correctly, but maybe not... it's here: http://www.sonalksis.com/index.php?se..."
ableton live CV - motu - gakken sx-150
"wiring up the gakken for control within ableton... via a drum rack sending CV info. woop. the poor man's volta."

ReplyDeleteHey!
ReplyDeleteEveryone in the Chicago area should definitely be the next Ableton user group downtown this upcoming Thurs, May 28th:
http://www.ableton.com/pages/2009/chicago_usergroup_2
In addition to Sam from Ableton presenting the new flashy-ass APC 40, and as well as some other great guest speakers, I'll be presenting a little bit about using Live as a CV controller on a modular synth.
Big shouts to Tremocore for bringing this to light!
I'll post a youtube link here for those who couldn't make it.
i grabbed the file and got this working with my roland sh101 - had to have hold on but worked great
