Description

Note: !!!THIS IS A MacOSX STANDALONE!!!

It works without Ableton. A m4l based on this will eventually come out.

ClassiCfizer is an experimental timestretch tool inspired by the classic AKAI time stretching algorithm. It’s developed in MaxMSP/Gen and runs as a standalone on MacOSX.  

With this tool you can achieve a classic jungle era sound, even without tuning any parameters. Just drop in any sound of your choice, re-record it, and save it.  

This device contains some unique features too:

• An algorithm that calculates the stretch speed based on the desired new BPM rate.

• The CycleFrequency (or rate), which can be synced to beat subdivisions, allowing for powerful stuttering effects and rhythmic variations.

• A BPM-synced LFO with three different waveforms that modulates the Speed parameter, opening up greater rhythmic experimentation and strange effects.

Additionally, this device features two stereo timestretching algorithms that can be mixed together or used separately:

• A "normal" timestretch algorithm optimized in Gen.

• A "broken" timestretch algorithm derived from a failed port of a Pure Data patch.  

This device allows you to set a recording time and then record a session from a sample of your choice, which can then be saved to your Mac.
