Superposition is a monophonic probabilistic concatenative multisampler with an inbuilt multi-fx and modulation system. It centers around transitioning between playback States; each State essentially is a preset for playback (including playing different samples), FX, and modulation settings/mappings.
Additionally there are three playback modes (normal, grain, spectral) for time stretching and freezing effects. You can transition between playback States using the Markov probability system or through MIDI notes (or both simultaneously!).
The device is pretty open ended and has many uses but it is great for sample mangling/cut up, generative melodies, jungle DnB and other breakbeats, glitchy FX/rhythms/textures, ambient progressions, and quite a lot more depending how you set it up!
Comes with
The device, user manual, 29 presets, 7 samples
SUPERPOSITION FEATURES:
- Probabilistic Markov system that can switch between different playback States
- Manual and two modes of Auto triggering the next playback State
- MIDI control of playback States and gating playback
- Parameter transition gliding
- Ability to lock and loop the last set number of transitions (for a repetitive rhythm)
- 2D interface for editing the different States
- Up to 16 Playback States of various parameters:
- Selection of playback between up to 6 samples (which can be warped individually to retain the rhythm of their original tempo)
- 3 different start position modes: percentage of sample, bars/beats, and a No-Start mode where the last sample and left off position are used instead
- 3 different playback modes: normal, granular, and spectral. Granular and spectral have a speed parameter for time stretching. Granular mode has grain size and spray options
- Playback direction, loop length, repitions, volume fade window, and independent auto transitioning parameters
- Basic effects: filter, distortion, sample reduction, wavefolding, phaser, delay, and reverb
- Modulation sources: ADS envelope, step sequencer, LFO, and random spray. Most of the State parameters mentioned above can be modulated. Modulation values and their mappings are individual per State!
- Transition probabilities
- Randomization options for each parameter category

Outstanding! Innovative device, with an intuitive interface, awesome sound and really fun to work with. Some really unexpected results with this device when you go a little off-road with your choice of samples. Dillon consistently delivers unique and surprising devices. Keep up the great work and many thanks to you and the team at Isotonik. One of the best platforms out there!!!

Dillon’s quirky genius continues. This is a very surreal sample mangler with a LOT going on under the hood. Be prepared to take time to learn the device as there is so much depth to this. Fantastic device as always by this developer.

Dam fine fun! Way to get into but no way have I mastered it yet, I think this will be a part of the toolbox and play room for a very long time. The flexibility of the setup is genius, from ‘normal’ beat slicing and mashing techniques, right through to fully off the wall messing about with sound it’s got it all…
