Description

Karplus Riddle is a max for live audio effect designed to sculpt rhythmic and evolving plucked or comb-like textures from any sound source. Built around a minimalist step-sequencer, it modulates micro-delay times per step, allowing for dynamic textural shifts, tempo variations, and gliding transitions. Applied to drums, it recalls the metallic, glitchy sonorities of early IDM (Autechre, µ-Ziq, Aphex Twin); with ambient material, it opens up into rich, atonal progressions.
