TRIPLE PACK SAVINGS: Add any three or more White Horse products to your cart and save 15% automatically at checkout!
Bokoodo by White Horse is a MaxforLive pitch shifter, delay, and feedback effect inspired by the warped vocal processing of classic Doctor Who. With two independent pitch shifters, a detailed feedback path, and surgical control over delay, saturation, and stereo imaging, Bokoodo creates everything from vocal thickening to infinite feedback chaos.
Push your signal into a feedback loop with tube or tape-style saturation, sculpt the return with filters and syncable delay, and experiment with comb-like effects via adjustable window sizes. Designed for both subtle use and full modulation mayhem, Bokoodo is a characterful tool for experimental sound design and sci-fi-inspired processing.
- Dual pitch shifters with frequency and stepped modes
- Adjustable window sizes for timbral control
- Blendable and linkable pitch paths
- Feedback loop with filters, delay, and saturation
- Tube and Tape saturation models
- Syncable delay for rhythmic FX
- Stereo width and upsampling options
Also Available Bokoodo Lite

This isn't just an effect; it's a tool for complete sonic deconstruction. It shatters your audio into a million pieces and then reassembles them into something entirely new and unexpected—ghostly harmonic trails, evolving rhythmic patterns, and textures that feel impossibly alive. It’s less about processing a sound and more about discovering the new sounds hidden within it. A gateway to true sonic metamorphosis.
Bokoodo by White Horse
OVERVIEW & INSPIRATION
Bokoodo is a MaxforLive pitch shifting and feedback effect by White Horse, designed to create strange, beautiful, or broken sounds through dual pitch processing and recursive feedback. Whether you’re after alien-sounding vocals, harmonic delays, or self-oscillating chaos, Bokoodo makes modulation the centrepiece of your sound.
Core Features
Each of Bokoodo’s two pitch shifters operates independently — use smooth frequency modulation or stepped pitch shifting over multiple octaves. The shifters can be blended, linked in multiple directions, and routed into a feedback path designed for tonal control and saturation.
Feedback Circuit
The feedback section includes a delay (free or syncable), filters (highpass/lowpass), and two saturation modes (Tube and Tape). Delay time syncs to project tempo, and saturation can push the signal from warm grit to noisy overload. Feedback gain, filter placement, and width control give you precise or chaotic results depending on how deep you want to go.
Creative Use
Use Bokoodo for classic pitch-based effects, robotic textures, or experimental modulation. Dial in comb filtering with short window sizes, or increase delay and feedback to generate rhythmic, evolving drones. It’s perfect for vocal mangling, tonal sound design, or treating any audio input like a modular synth voice.

Important Information
V2.0 – Released April 2026
Externals replaced with Gen Code to address performance issues across different OS.
V1.0.0 – Initial Release – September 2025
Our Products are generally provided as Zip file downloads which in all cases will need to be extracted and saved to your hard drive prior to installation. Details on the different file type provided and what to do with them are below.
.alp Files – These are Ableton Live Packs and will either install directly into the Packs Section of the browser of Ableton Live or ask you to save them to your hard drive. For packs that install to the library, when you double click on them you will see a pop up window asking you to confirm that installation is ok as the files are described as “Legacy”. This is fine and you are ok to proceed, the packs are created using the format for an earlier version of Live and so remain compatible with the current version.
.amxd files – These are individual MaxforLive Devices and can be stored anywhere on your hard drive. We’d advise creating a folder for them and then adding that folder as a location within the Places section of Lives Browser.
