ClassiCfizer - MaxForLive

This is the MaxForLive version of the ClassiCfizer!

ClassiCfizer is an experimental timestretch tool inspired by the classic AKAI time stretching algorithm. It’s developed in MaxMSP/Gen and works inside Ableton Live! (requires version 10 or above).

With this tool you can achieve a classic jungle era sound, even without tuning any parameters. Just drop in any sound of your choice and press play.

Features:

• 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.

• A MIDI-Input to send MIDI notes and control the playback accordingly. 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. PDF Manual included.
