Liine announces Kapture Pad for iPhone and iPad
By Guest |
Kapture Pad extends Ableton Live's capabilities by allowing you to take snapshots of
all mixer and device parameters in your set and recall them instantly. The inclusion
of snapshot morphing makes Kapture Pad not only an indispensable live performance
utility but also a mind-bending sound design tool.
WHAT IS KAPTURE PAD?
Kapture Pad is an app for iPhone/iPad to control Ableton Live. It builds on the
success of specialised software originally created for Richie Hawtin's Plastikman
Live show. It offers a clean and easy to use iPhone/iPad interface to manage and
perform with snapshots.
Two types of snapshots are available: Global Snapshots and Track Snapshots.
- Global Snapshots store mixer and device parameters for all tracks and all devices
(yes, even VSTs and Audio Units).
- Track Snapshots allow morphing between four snapshots on a track using the Morph
Pad – an incredible new way to perform electronic music with Live.
Both types of snapshots offer filtering so that you can choose exactly which devices
or tracks you want Kapture to control.
WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH KAPTURE PAD?
Kapture and trigger snapshots on the fly during performance, or prepare your
snapshots in advance. Kapture Pad can be used in many different ways, here are just
a few:
- Be more daring: First, Kapture a great loop. Then, feel free to push the envelope
and really let loose with those effects. Now, one tap is all it takes to jump right
back to that perfect groove!
- Performance and sound design: Get acquainted with morphing. Never before has this
been possible in Ableton Live. Kapture four wildly different sounds and discover new
sounds by smoothly morphing between them.
- Set the stage for each song: People often wonder how to manage many songs with
different mix, instrument and effect settings in one Live set. Kapture Pad is the
answer.
- DJ-style XY pad: Wondering how to raise the bar with your DJ performances? Morph
effect snapshots and create your own signature sonic weapons.
- Timed chaos: trigger snapshots with clips in Live. Combine these with follow
actions and you can create fantastic changes synced to the beat.
Kapture Pad is Liine's second collaboration with Stu Fisher, creator of LiveControl.
