Description

SimulScrub is a Max for Live device that plays a number of contiguous time segments of an audio file simultaneously, with a flexible crossfader control to select which segment(s) you want to hear.

This allows you to scrub through time of a longer sample, while always playing the sample at 1x speed. 🤯

In the screen capture shown, the yellow lines represent virtual "playheads" playing from your sample at that position. The blue bars coming in from the bottom represent the volume that the respective playhead will actually play. The position is controlled via slider below the main display, with control over the width of the pickup pattern.

Just drag an audio sample or file to the main plugin area and play any MIDI note to start playing. Automate or modulate the Position slider and Width knob. See how different numbers of slices (up to 32) changes things.

v4 Fixes pops and clicks bugs as well as adding controls for speed and fade times.
