Designed by Ableton Certified Trainer Noah Pred to enhance harmonic coherence and provide new approaches to signal processing while enabling interactions between otherwise unrelated musical elements, X-FX is comprised of nine unique Max for Live audio effects. This is just one effect from the entire bundle which also comes with the bonus packs – Utility Boost & Mod Squad! – MFA X-FX AVAILABLE HERE
In addition to standard timing controls, each effect can be controlled melodically with a MIDI note dial. Better yet, when played in a harmonic mode, all X-FX can be constrained within 69 scales in any key, selected locally within the device.
Harmonizers are characterized by the addition of one or more harmonically related pitches to a signal. This can create a sense of thickening and fullness, and can add a sense of depth and complexity to any sound.Designed by Ableton Certified Trainer Noah Pred X-Harmonizer not only offers two such harmonic shifts, but they can both be quantized to the current scale and key. Better yet, it can also shift or autotune the original, pre-harmonized incoming signal — also within the current key and scale. Rich, full, and lush, X-Harmonizer adds diatonic depth to any sound, creating new dimensions in your music. X-Harmonizer is optimized for Push with full Info View annotations for further details; just hover the mouse over any parameter to view detailed information on all controls in Live’s Info View.
The input threshold control on all X-FX allows you to apply effects only to signal above (or, optionally, below) a specified amplitude. Only want to delay, reverberate, or tame signal above certain peaks? This is the parameter to explore. Switch to crossover mode to only apply effects when signal is above (or, optionally, below) a specified frequency. Ultimate flexibility for enhanced creativity.
All X-FX can be constrained to one of 69 scales in any key. By default, this will be set by Live 12’s scale and key, or with Live 11 and older, an instance of the included Global Hub utility – but can also be pinned locally on a per-device basis, allowing you to explore diatonic musical expressions of previously chromatic effects.
In addition to standard dry/wet balance, the unique interpolate mode works in tandem with the input threshold to only trigger the current wet effect amount when signal exceeds the specified threshold or crossover, resulting in truly dynamic processing.
First, place the included X-Relay utility on any MIDI source track, switch it to Relay mode, and select a conduit. Then set your target X-FX to Relay mode and set it to receive on the same conduit. Voila! Now you can play your effect via MIDI, within the selected scale and key, and with optional transposition. Better yet, you can flip the incoming Relay signal to invert the notes on the keyboard for instant counterpoint. Or, set a delay on the source X-Relay instance to induce call and response. The possibilities are truly endless.
Every device has input and output gain controls with a wide range to boost or attenuate as needed to keep your signal at optimal levels regardless of effect processing.
As described above, X-FX fits neatly with our Global Hub and X-Relay utilities as well as Live 12’s scale awareness, creating an integrated musical ecosystem that expands the possible to new realms.
All X-FX have built-in output limiting enabled by default so you can experiment with extreme feedback and other settings without concern for damage.
X-FX are designed to integrate with Mod Squad, our custom collection of advanced modulation devices — LFOs, Envelopes, Trackers, Randomizers all come included with the bundled Mod Squad Free, and over 70 presets demonstrate how they work together, hand to glove. Better yet, it also comes bundled with Utility Boost: a set of five workflow-enhancing devices that help coordinate the scale and key of X-FX, flexibly route MIDI into X-FX, and much more.
