_kick chemist SSS102




_kick chemist is a kick drum designer for Ableton with a twist, with 127 kick samples to seamlessly blend beaters + bodies + tails, then reshape and saturate your concoction.


With 127 Subsocial kick drum samples, and over 2 million possible combinations of beater + body + tail, your kicks will literally never be the same again. By allowing you to blend the components of individual kick samples together into a new hybrid kick, you’ll have total control over a vast array of bass drum formulas as new catalysts for creativity. Go full indie normcore, or totally hardcore  - the choice yours.


Use any of the 128 kick presets provided, or blend your own kick elements together. Feel free to add a little more shape and contour to your creation to distill things further. Add some custom drum drive we created in Ableton 12 Suite’s new saturator by blending your way through 6 Roar presets, going from doughy drive, to supersonic superabundance. 


Take further control of this kick designer as an instrument with 12 simple device macro knobs to dial in your perfect kick. You can play any kick chromatically and use your kicks as other unique percussion elements, or even morph your kick into other kicks over time with simple automation.


Can you kick it? Yes you can.

_roar 256 SSS101




_roar 256 consecrates the release of Ableton 12 with 256 presets for its new saturation device, Roar. Add subtle colour, fold harmonics, or maim that tune.


Roar is made up of three saturation stages for serial, parallel or mid/side and multiband madness. Feedback and modulation controls let you add dynamic, evolving saturation and colour or outright sound destruction.


Drums, bass, vocals, guitars, synths, group tracks, and mix buses will benefit from the beautiful damage that these presets can cause. An all-around buffet featuring anything from creamy colours, to spiced saturations, to inedible indelicacies - this pack of plenty has it all.


We’ve been hard at work making this huge pack of presets for the launch of Ableton 12, while getting to know the new features that help enhance them, like the new tagging and filter features. Preset tags are now included with our Ableton presets so you can find what you’re after faster!


Butcher your bop.


• Minimum requirements: Ableton Suite 12.0+

_meld 256 SSS100




_meld 256 celebrates the release of Ableton 12 with 256 presets for its new bi-timbral synth, Meld. An abundance of aural amalgams await.


Live 12 Suite’s new macro oscillator synthesizer Meld is designed to create unexpected sound design successes. Inspired by modular synthesis, Meld is a new device that encourages intuitive exploration, using two engines, a vast selection of complex oscillators, and interesting ways to route, cross-modulate and combine engine timbres.


We’ve been hard at work making this huge pack of presets for the launch of Ableton 12, while getting to know the new features that help enhance them, like the new tagging and filter features. Preset tags are now included with our Ableton presets so you can find what you’re after faster!


We wanted to push and pull Meld to its limits and explore it as much as possible. Meld’s “macro oscillators” sound new in many ways to us, and there are plenty of new tonal abstractions that we came up with. This collection of sounds is quite varied, but is still a very useable set of sounds that are useful across many genres. 


Included in this pack are:


• 32 Bass

• 32 Keys

• 64 Leads

• 64 Pads

• 64 Plucks


There are no mistakes, only happy accidents.


• Minimum requirements: Ableton Suite 12.0+

• 256 Ableton Meld Instrument Presets. (ADV files)

• 100% Royalty-Free.

• Designed in Vancouver, Canada by Subsocial Studios.
