NM Vocal Chop

Vocal chops on the transients

$14Buy · Soon

Drop a vocal and it is cut at its transients into 2 to 32 slices. A 16-step pattern plays them in sync with reverse, gate and pitch, and MIDI notes play the slices too.

Ableton Live 12 Suite, or Live 12 Standard with Max for Live. Windows and macOS.

How it works

Put it on a MIDI track and drop a vocal. It finds the transients and cuts the vocal into as many slices as you choose. Click the 16 steps to pick slices (shift for reverse), press Generate for a new pattern and PLAY to hear it in sync, or play the slices from your keyboard starting at C3.

Features

  • Slices on the transients (2 to 32)
  • 16-step pattern, reverse steps
  • Generate with Density and Reverse
  • MIDI: C3 plays slice 1
  • Native Ableton look, automatable controls
  • Defaults do nothing until you turn a control
