Songbird by Dillon Bastan

Bird flock simulator and more!

Songbird is a MaxForLive audio instrument featuring a simulation of a flock of birds, each bird having its own model of a syrinx (a bird vocal organ) as well as a model of a simple birdbrain that controls the syrinx to create different syllables.Each bird’s position, speed, angle, etc in the flock can be mapped to various parameters as modulation sources.This device yields anything from textures, drones, rhythms, harsh/haunting/noisy/pretty tones, generative soundscapes, odd melodies, and of course different sounding bird calls!

COMPATIBILITY: Ableton Live 10 / 11 Suite or Ableton Live 10 / 11 Standard with MaxforLive Installed

data.train by Dillon Bastan

Want to sample and mangle?

data.train is a sampler mangler of sorts that can be used as an audio effect or instrument (works with dropped samples or live audio input).It centers around the modulation of sample playback and FX through a grid of math operators. Each playback and FX parameter has its own modulation source/value and each frame that value changes based on its selected math operator.By changing the operators in a chain of events and the source of their right-hand operand, you can create complex to harmonic oscillations that can be evolving over time or repeating rhythms.
