Divs MIDI Transformer

About Divs

Divs is a transformer for Ableton Live 12 that subdivides notes in your MIDI clips to create ratchets, tuplets, nested rhythms. This device is great for adding decoration or rolls to rhythmic patterns. It includes a pitch and velocity function that shapes those parameters over the course of the subdivisions. I love to use this one in junction with the Blocks tool and multi-sampled acoustic percussion to create complex, lively drums.

Get this device for $7 or get it for a discount through the bundle:

NOTE: You must have Ableton Live 12 Suite or Live 12 Standard with Max for Live to use this device. MIDI Tools are a new feature of Live 12.

Features

Quantized or Unquantized Rhythms: The tuplets this device produces don't always conform to the MIDI clip's grid ,which is one reason it produces such exciting and novel rhythms. Sometimes it's a bit too wild, though. For that reason, this device has a Quantize button that will lock the notes it creates to the MIDI clip's grid.

Scale Aware: Live 12 introduced a new scales feature that allows instruments and MIDI clips to be fixed to a specific scale. Divs fully supports this new feature, which makes its algorithmic melodies surprisingly musical.

Theme Support: Full support for Live's color themes so that the devices matches the look and feel of your Live set.
