MaxforLive Plate Reverb

Piastrone is a Max4Live device for Ableton Live, a plate reverb dedicated to the italian composer Gino Marinuzzi Jr., who in 1963 defined with this term the reverb technique. It’s based on the famous Dattorro (1997) digital plate reverb design, which returns a dry and, at the same time, deep and spacious sound, with the possibility, through modulations, to obtain more metallic and spicy sound.

    INSTALLATION:

    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 install directly into the Packs Section of the browser of Ableton Live. 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.

    Control Surface Scripts – Please refer to the individual User Guides provided with your download, an abridged version of the installation will be shown further down this page.

    ClyphX Pro – Please refer directly to the manual and installation video for this specific product.

    Novation Circuit Packs – These are provided as individual Sysex Files and as a complete bank file. All are to be installed using a version of the Circuit Editor and not via Novations Components back up utility.

    PIASTRONE by AVAL

    Piastrone is a Max4Live device for Ableton Live, a plate reverb dedicated to the italian composer Gino Marinuzzi Jr., who in 1963 defined with this term the reverb technique.

    It’s based on the famous Dattorro (1997) digital plate reverb design, which returns a dry and, at the same time, deep and spacious sound, with the possibility, through modulations, to obtain more metallic and spicy sound.

    The algorithm has been simplified in its controls, allowing you to act on the different parametrics through the central panel, which provides the filtering and diffusion options, as well as a simple animation that responds to the rms value of the reverberated signal.

    “Really nice sounding reverb. Probably the best sounding maxforlive reverb I’ve heard. Awesome visual design as well, as usual for Aval.”- Animus Invidious

    PIASTRONE CONTROLS

    • XY control panel: controls internal diffusing and filtering, centered it creates warm and
      diffused signal, while to the sides it generates a sharp and bright sound. At the bottom
      there are X and Y position values, mappable in order to make them move with external
      LFOs or sequencers.
    • Material: controls the decay of the reverberation.
    • Size: changes the ‘plate size’ by expanding the delay lines.
    • DryWet: amount of dry or wet signal.
    • PreDelay: amount of delay before early reflection
    • Input Diffuse: enable/disable input diffusing, allowing to get softer transients when
      enabled.
    • Highpass Filter: the white curve, a HPF that filters the input signal before the
      reverberation.
    • Lowpass Filter: the green curve, a LPF that filters the input signal before the
      reverberation
    • Down left arrow: opens a pup up menu where you can set the LFO mask of the diffusers,
      from here you can change:

      • Rate: speeds up or stop the LFOs freq.
      • Depth: change the amount of modulation
      • Shape: dragging it you can change the Ifo shape, from a reverse saw to a ramp, a
        triangle wave by default.

    AVAL is a ridiculously small audio software house with ridiculously big dreams. it was born out of a need of two musicians (Edoardo Staffa and Francesco Paradisi) to create their own sound, own workflow, and somehow fill the space left by bigger software houses. that said, use and enjoy, create and be beautiful!
