Studio instruments & MIDI tools for Ableton Live, VST, and AU

Plugins built the way I actually compose — focused on flow, expression, and getting out of the way. Each one solves something real I kept hitting in my own sessions.

WaveRider

WaveRider

Free
VST · AU · Mac & Windows · Hybrid Synth

WaveRider is a hybrid granular/wavetable synthesizer — wild bold sound, ultra-lightweight CPU. Load any sample and transform it into roaring leads, deep bass lines, evolving pads, and crunchy futuristic textures. A new synthesis method that blends granular and wavetable approaches with a distinct, modern, expressive character.

  • Wavedriving engine — unique granular + wavetable hybrid synthesis
  • Drag-and-drop any sample to transform it instantly
  • 4 LFOs + 4 envelopes with fully assignable modulation
  • Unison and stereo spread (pan, position, size, pitch)
  • Fast randomization for quick sound discovery
  • Mac (AU + VST3, Intel & Apple Silicon) · Windows (VST3 64-bit)
SuperScaler

SuperScaler

Free
Max for Live · Ableton Live · MIDI

SuperScaler separates harmonic intent from note entry. A Parent device captures chords or note sets; Child devices on other tracks follow that harmonic framework live. One Parent controls unlimited Child instances — multiple MIDI tracks respond as one instrument while keeping rhythmic independence. Great for improvising over changing harmony, generative setups, and live harmonic performance.

  • Parent/Child architecture: one Parent, unlimited Children across tracks
  • Real-time chord progression steering without rewriting MIDI
  • Works with chords, single notes, or full manual input
  • Keeps rhythmic independence across all tracks

ChordMaster

ChordMaster

Free
Max for Live · Ableton Live · MIDI

ChordMaster turns your keyboard into a custom harmonic instrument inside Ableton Live. Each key recalls a stored chord, and musical layout presets (Default, Fifths, Tonnetz) map harmonic relationships spatially so progressions feel natural to discover. Designed to make harmony easier to explore — nearby chords feel naturally complementary, enabling progressions that flow and feel alive.

  • One key = one stored chord — instant playable chord map
  • Musical layout presets: Default, Fifths, Tonnetz
  • Per-chord editing: root, triad type, 7th, 9/11/13 extensions, inversions
  • Randomize chord and randomize all for fast harmonic exploration
  • Strum and humanize timing controls
  • Pairs naturally with SuperScaler for multi-track harmonic control
LiveQuantizer

LiveQuantizer

Free
Max for Live · Ableton Live · MIDI

LiveQuantizer brings real-time MIDI quantization to Ableton Live while preserving your human feel. Instead of forcing everything onto a rigid grid, it listens to each note and makes a musical decision in real time — snapping, swinging, tolerating, or passing through. Useful whether you want to play live and sound tight, or stay in compositional flow without constant editor interruptions.

  • Real-time quantization — no post-processing, works while you play
  • Tolerance — slightly-off notes treated as intended, keeping groove natural
  • Roll Threshold — preserves flams, grace notes, quick trails
  • Re-Humanize — adds subtle timing variation back after quantization
  • Custom polyrhythmic subdivisions — divide bar into any number of steps
