Glitchtastic Device by 36db

The Glitchtastic Device features 9 effects channels which include the following:

  • The 36db Glitch Delay
  • Reverse Effect
  • Random Reverbs
  • Overdrive
  • Bitcrusher
  • Phaser / Flanger / Doubler
  • Saturation
  • Chorus / Ensemble / Vibrato
  • Echo Delay

Each of the selected effects channels also may include LFO’s or Macros to multiple specific parameters of each of the effects in each channel. This allows you to change the settings for many of the Effects racks and create endless variations of that effects channel.

The Glitchtastic Device lets you mess up a sound or instrument, allowing you to glitch it out with 9 different effects channel feeds. These can be selected with the Warp Macro. By dialing the Warp Macro, you’ll see each effects channel switch to that channel feed, giving you a new effect treatment.

There are snapshots with different effects settings, which you’ll see change when you play the keyboard. Each key selects a different effects snapshot. This allows you to play and perform the Effects rack and create instant effects. By going back to the Thru channel, (which is Middle C), you will turn off the selected effects channel. This creates a momentary effect from your previous selection. Try it out, then you’ll get the idea!

Each of the snapshots can be customized with your own settings. Simply hit the randomize button and see what effects you create. By selecting and channel with the Warp Macro, you can audition the effect you’re testing out. Once you have something you like, save it onto that snapshot. Try making a bunch of your own snapshots. All the macros are connected to multiple parameters within the Effects rack. It will instantly give you some wonky vibes to work with!

If you want to keep the snapshots that are already created, simply make a new snapshot with the settings you’ve created. To select this new snapshot via MIDI, you’ll need to add a key to that specific new snapshot you’ve created.

Tip: The GlitchtasticDevice’s Thru channel has the dry signal constant through each of the effects channels. If you want to have just the effected signal, in chains, make the Thru channel only feed on the Thru channel selection.

Frequently Asked Questions

The device features 9 effects channels covering glitch delay, reverse effect, random reverbs, overdrive, bitcrusher, phaser/flanger/doubler, saturation, chorus/ensemble/vibrato, and echo delay. Each channel offers its own distinct sonic character, giving you a wide palette of glitch and texture treatments.

The Glitchtastic Device is a Max for Live device, so it requires Ableton Live Suite or a copy of Ableton Live with a Max for Live licence. Make sure you are running a current version of Live and Max for Live for the best performance.

The Warp Macro lets you dial through all 9 effects channels in a single sweep, switching between each channel feed as you turn it. This makes it ideal for live performance or automation, letting you move fluidly between completely different effect treatments in real time.

Yes, each effects channel can include dedicated LFOs and Macros mapped to multiple parameters within that channel. This means you can create a huge range of variations for any given effect without needing to dig into the underlying racks manually.

The device works well on virtually any sound source, including synthesisers, drums, vocals, and audio clips. It is particularly effective when you want to add movement, chaos, or texture to an otherwise static sound.

After purchasing, download the device file and drag it into your Ableton Live User Library or directly onto a MIDI or audio track. As a Max for Live device, no additional installation steps are required beyond having Max for Live active.
