Æthernity | Max for Live devices for atmospheric sounds

Æthernity is a collection of seven Max for Live devices oriented towards the creation of ethereal and atmospheric music. The devices currently featured are:

• Paysage: a soundscape creator tool with an interactive mixer featuring 20 professionally recorded and seamlessly looping soundscapes.

• Ksenia: a polyphonic synthesizer based on Karplus-Strong synthesis, ideal to create physical models of guitar and piano strings. It also has some effects to shape the sound without the need of additional devices.

• Padradise: a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer specialized in the creation of lush and evolving pads and textures.

• Babel: an effect processor with 16 parallel filters, pitchshifters, delays and pan units followed by a thick reverberator, able to transform any kind of sound into a deep evolving texture.

• Picoscape: a tiny device that creates an evolving eerie texture.

• Escape: another small device that synthesizes a dense texture.

• Myscape: with this pocket device you can create mysterious soundscapes from any couple of sound samples.

Some sounds made using Æthernity devices only:

Æthernity needs Ableton Live Suite (tested on versions 10 and 11) or Standard with Max for Live addon to work. The devices can be used in Max/MSP 8 standalone, too. Both Windows and Mac OSX are supported.
