01Overview

This preset pack from 5Pin Media targets producers working in deep tech, tech house, minimal tech, minimal house and leftfield electronic music. The developer says the racks are inspired by artists such as Boris Brejcha, Richie Hawtin and Stephan Bodzin. The pack contains only presets and MIDI, with no loops or one-shot samples. Drums and percussion heard in the demos are built into the racks themselves. Ableton Live 11 Suite is required.

03In depth

Sound Design and Modulation in the Racks

Each of the 250 racks exposes macro controls for shaping sounds quickly, along with room for hands-on automation. The developer uses Shaper as a modulation source on some presets to create more unusual timbres. Live's LFO is used to extend the Operator and Analog devices in several racks.

MIDI note velocity is routed as a modulator on many presets, so the sound responds to how you play. That makes the racks useful as a starting point for expressive, dynamic parts rather than static patches.

What Is Included and What You Need

The pack includes MIDI clips matched to the presets so you can audition each rack immediately. 5Pin Media also include the Live Arrangements from the featured demos and 14 "Jam Session" kits.

You need an existing copy of Ableton Live 11 Suite. Most racks use Analog, Operator and Wavetable, so check that your edition of Ableton supports these devices before buying.
