Easy to find a corner for this straightforward utility set.
The oscilloscope is the most useful for me, I liked the freeze setting, the threshold setting and the bigger pop-out window. The note value translator, if you don't have one, is handy.

UtiliKit by NOISS COKO
Testing and calibration in Ableton Live often means guesswork, approximation, and visual estimation. You’re tweaking EQ curves without knowing exact frequencies, setting delay times by ear, calibrating levels without proper reference tones. UtiliKit changes that equation entirely. This three-device MaxforLive pack brings precision measurement, signal visualization, and musical mathematics directly into your Live set, transforming technical workflows from guesswork into certainty.
Developed by Barcelona-based NOISS COKO (Javier Salthú), UtiliKit delivers the kind of analytical tools typically found in dedicated test equipment or external applications, now native to your DAW. Whether you’re fine-tuning compressor timings to match song tempo, analyzing waveforms for clipping or phase issues, calibrating gain staging across your signal chain, or converting musical values into precise technical measurements, these three utilities work as your technical foundation.
The pack includes Scope, a high-resolution oscilloscope that visualizes audio signals in real time with adjustable buffer size, refresh rate, dual-mode operation (History and Trigger), and a floating high-resolution window for detailed waveform inspection. Tone provides sine wave and white noise generation for calibration tasks, with frequency control switchable between notes and hertz (20Hz to 20kHz), filtered noise output, and adjustable gain. Translator converts MIDI notes into frequency and period values, and note durations into millisecond measurements, perfect for setting reverb decay times, compressor attack/release, delay resonances, or frequency-specific EQ moves based on harmonic context.
Together, these utilities solve problems that otherwise require multiple external tools, calculator apps, or educated guesses. Set compressor release times in sync with your track’s groove by converting note values to milliseconds. Tune delay feedback to resonate at specific pitches using period calculations. Calibrate your monitoring chain with precise reference tones. Inspect transients and waveforms for clipping, phase cancellation, or DC offset. Match levels across different signal paths. All without leaving Live’s interface.
UtiliKit integrates seamlessly into technical workflows. Drop Scope onto your master chain during mixdown to catch clipping before it reaches your limiter. Use Tone to generate test signals for speaker placement, room analysis, or gain calibration. Keep Translator open in a side panel to quickly reference frequency values when surgical EQing, or convert rhythmic note values into exact millisecond timings for tempo-synced effects. Each device operates independently but complements the others as part of a complete diagnostic toolkit.
The oscilloscope offers History mode for continuous waveform display (showing the last N samples defined by buffer size) or Trigger mode, which captures waveforms only when they exceed a configurable threshold, perfect for isolating transients or specific signal events. The display features adjustable grid opacity and waveform line width, with stereo visualization showing left, right, or both channels simultaneously. A single click opens a floating high-resolution window for detailed analysis while your session continues playing.
Tone’s dual-source architecture switches between sine wave generation (with note or hertz-based frequency control) and filtered white noise (with adjustable lowpass cutoff), covering both tonal and broadband calibration needs. The gain control operates in decibels, allowing precise level matching and safe output management. This makes it ideal for checking frequency response across playback systems, setting unity gain through effects chains, or providing reference signals for external gear calibration.
Translator solves the constant mental math of music production. Enter a MIDI note manually or send it via MIDI input, and instantly see its frequency in hertz and period in milliseconds. Set a note value (whole note, quarter note, 16th, etc.) and get its exact length in milliseconds based on your project tempo. Use frequency values to target harmonic content with surgical precision. Use period values to tune delays for pitch-resonant feedback effects. Use length values to set reverb pre-delay or decay times that lock to your track’s rhythmic grid. The calculations update in real time as you adjust tempo or note values.
UtiliKit represents NOISS COKO’s commitment to workflow enhancement through thoughtful utility design. Where other developers focus on sound generation or creative effects, this pack addresses the technical foundation that underpins professional production work. Precision, clarity, and measurement over approximation and guesswork.
What’s Inside
Scope: High-resolution oscilloscope with adjustable buffer size (sample-based window control), refresh rate control (frames per second), input gain adjustment, History and Trigger display modes, configurable trigger threshold, adjustable grid opacity, waveform line width control, stereo display (left/right/both channels), freeze function for waveform capture, and floating high-resolution window.
Tone: Dual-source signal generator with sine wave output (20Hz to 20kHz), white noise output, switchable frequency units (notes or hertz), lowpass filter for noise shaping, decibel-based gain control, and safe output level management.
Translator: Musical-to-technical conversion utility with MIDI note input (manual or MIDI-triggered), frequency display in hertz, period display in milliseconds, note value selection (whole note through 64th note subdivisions), length calculation in milliseconds (tempo-based), and real-time updates for all calculations.

Use Cases
Mixdown and mastering engineers use Scope to visually confirm headroom, check for intersample peaks, analyze stereo imaging, and identify phase issues before final bounce. The trigger mode isolates transient events for detailed inspection, while the floating window allows waveform monitoring without cluttering your arrangement view.
Sound designers rely on Translator to calculate delay times that create harmonic resonance at specific pitches, set reverb parameters in musical time values, and target frequencies for spectral processing based on note input rather than guesswork. The real-time conversion streamlines technical decisions during creative workflows.
Mixing engineers deploy Tone for gain staging calibration across complex signal chains, speaker placement verification through frequency sweeps, monitoring system frequency response checks, and level matching between different processing paths. The filtered noise output provides broadband test signals for room analysis and acoustic treatment evaluation.
Live performers use these utilities for pre-show system checks, ensuring proper signal flow and level calibration before taking the stage. The oscilloscope confirms clean audio paths, the tone generator verifies speaker function and frequency response, and the translator quickly calculates effect timings for tempo-synced performances.
Workflow Integration
UtiliKit operates as permanent fixtures in your Live set templates or deploys on-demand for specific technical tasks. Many users keep Scope on the master channel with the device collapsed, expanding it only when visual confirmation is needed. Translator often lives in a dedicated MIDI track or info view panel for quick reference during arrangement and mixing. Tone typically appears temporarily for calibration tasks, then gets removed once levels are confirmed.
The devices require minimal CPU overhead, making them suitable for background operation even in dense sessions. Scope’s refresh rate and buffer size parameters allow you to balance visual responsiveness against processing load. On lower-powered systems, reduce the update rate for smoother performance. On high-performance machines, maximize refresh and buffer settings for ultra-detailed waveform display.
Integration with Ableton Push provides hands-on parameter control for all three devices, though screen-based interaction remains the primary interface due to the visual nature of Scope’s display and Translator’s numerical outputs. The devices save their states with your Live projects, preserving settings across sessions.
