_air chimes spirits you away as a generative but playable ambient Ableton instrument. 8 pleasing macro controls and 64 presets makes you more mindful than a crypto bro with 10 free meditation apps.
Watch this quick demo and hear the controls in action:
This virtual wind chime instrument, based on Ableton Collision, stays in musical scale when you enable or change Ableton’s new Scale Mode in your projects. Hit your keys or pads and get simple, demure chimes, or totally chaotic, unrealistic results. Add some soft wind to set the scene, or ethereal effects to activate your inner chill bro.
Seriously though, it’s a cool instrument that will probably be popular in many other parallel universes.
