The Max4Live Device for Spontaneous Clip Triggering, also known as the Random Launcher 1.0, is a software designed and coded by killihu that notably changes the functions of Ableton Live’s Session View. Providing randomness and surprise to performances or studio sessions, this program enables spontaneous triggering of audio clips across multiple tracks. The primary operation of the Random Launcher lies in its transformation of predictable audio playback into eccentric and dynamic clip executions.
Key features of this device include the ability to designate a Track/Scene range, the capability to capture running audio clips into a new scene at the list’s end, and a unique random mode that avoids any repetition in clip triggering. This Max4Live device tends to respect the structure of a session by ignoring empty slots, ensuring a seamless yet surprising progression of a set. With mappable buttons, the Random Launcher is highly user-friendly and readily integrates with a user’s workflow.
This software tool is ideal for both performance and production situations, resulting in a change from static clip layout into a dynamic and spectral playground. As a commercially licensed product, the Random Launcher 1.0 justifies its value by providing the potential to introduce unique twists into live performances or enhance the production workflow.

ProbTool 1.0 is a Max4Live MIDI generator designed by Gross9978 that thrives on the element of chance. It enables the creation of melodies and rhythms determined by probability settings, which can be applied to parameters such as octave, pitch, and velocity. This system integrates a sense of randomness while keeping the musician in control, owing to the possibility of locking attributes like Pitch/Octave, Velocity, and Chance. In terms of usage, it fits seamlessly into Ableton Live 12, provided it is placed into the UserLibrary/MidiTools folder. ProbTool 1.0 fosters a dynamic interaction with its users, generating variations of sequences based on probability manipulations, thereby serving as a unique tool for those seeking innovation and spontaneity in their music composition.

Slynk’s Expander is a Max4Live device designed for Ableton Live, aiming to augment the stereo aspects of audio. This tool operates by generating a delayed and polarity-inverted version of a mono signal, producing a broader stereo experience. The device’s distinct feature is its combination of the original dry signal and the altered one, giving birth to a comb filter effect. This element widens the sonic perception remarkably. The Expander is also equipped with customisable all-pass filters that effectively work on both ends of the frequency spectrum to ensure a sonically coherent output. To utilize this plugin, Ableton Live version 10.1.18 and Max version 8.1.5 are required.
This Max4Live plugin gives you control over parameters like ‘Expand’, ‘Dry/Wet’, ‘Low Blur’ and ‘High Blur’, allowing you to broaden the stereo field of your mono tracks while maintaining their original character. The thing that sets Slynk’s Expander apart is its ability to create convincing, lush stereo fields from mono sources, without compromising mono compatibility. This device works across different genres and is not limited to electronic music.

Split Wizard+ is an advanced audio separation tool developed by OSTINSOLO, leveraging the capabilities of Demucs v4 – a state-of-art source separation model. It’s a Max4Live device designed for Ableton Live, focusing on high-quality audio separation. It enables the splitting of audio stems into up to six distinct parts: drums, bass, vocals, guitar, piano etc. Comes with seven specialized models, inclusive of the Hybrid Transformer Demucs technology. It features user-friendly installation and operation procedure. Enhancing the device’s capabilities are features like GPU usage toggle for faster processing, memory management option through segment length adjustment, control over audio clipping modes, and shift increases for improved audio quality. Despite its advanced features, the Split Wizard+ is only compatible with OSX and Windows 10/11. It’s designed for innovation and education, and the developer holds no responsibility for any copyright issues. Commercial license applicable and available to purchase from the official OSTINSOLO Gumroad Page.

The Monotale Simpler Random Loop 1.0 is a Max4Live device engineered for both novice and advanced Ableton Live 11 users. Designed to manipulate audio loops with precision, it provides two distinct randomization algorithms for creative exploration. The destructive randomness algorithm disassembles loops into unpredictable variations, while the grid-based random mode offers structured changes to maintain cohesive timing, both with an emphasis on drum loops but applicable across a vast range of instrumental options.
This device houses a user-friendly interface where loops can be easily imported and manipulated. It offers a preloaded sample library of 50 drum loops and supports WAV files. Various velocity levels are available to control the intensity of the manipulated loop. In its current version, it only supports .wav files format.
Significant integration with Ableton Live ensures the rhythm of the manipulated loops aligns perfectly with your session, aiding the creative process, and reducing time required for beat-alignment. The device is sold with a commercial license and can be purchased from the official page.
