Ambient Drift showcases Drift in its most beautiful and organic expression. A complete two-in-one sound pack for Ableton Move and Ableton Live, it features 79 living, expressive patches with deep velocity response, 15 polished demo sets, and a fully installable Ableton Live Pack Project that includes the same instruments, samples, and drum kits, plus the demo sets specifically arranged for Ableton Live, offering a more in-depth production workflow.

tech notes:
this is a one take live recording. with mixing and mastering done in post.
all audio recording are multi-tracked (4 stereo channel) via usb c from S-4 to my hackintosh (macos sequoia). recorded using ableton live 11.
i set the buffer size to 256, which seems to be a sweet spot. i was using buffer size 128, but i was getting a lot of noise crackles/cpu drop out.
ableton is sending midi clock to S-4 via usb, then from S-4 i send midi clock to Plinky via TRS 3.5mm. i was sending midi clock to Plinky from ableton via usb, but it was not stable/very wonky. then i tried the TRS from S-4 which was very tight and a lot better.
and also , i need the set the midi sync delay in ableton, i think its about -36ms.
audio out from Plinky goes to S-4 analog in, and i put it into track 4."

Minimal Electronic with norns shield, NTS-1 Loop EG, OP-1 field : Star Trail 2025-10-24 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"A piece created with norns shield, @KORG_INC NTS-1, and @teenageengineering OP-1 field — a minimal ambient composition where looping envelopes, micro-loops, and sustained tones intertwine to form delicate textures.
On the norns shield, the sines script is used to generate various types of sustained tones, controlled via the monome grid. The output is routed through @HologramElectronics MICROCOSM with the GLITCH effect applied.
The NTS-1 receives MIDI sequencing from Ableton, with the envelope generator set to loop, creating finely textured rhythmic particles. Its output passes throug @ChaseBlissAudio LOSSY, adding reverb and a lo-fi character.
On the OP-1 field, sampled vocal sounds are used to create harmonies triggered by MIDI from Ableton. A touch of delay from @ChaseBlissAudio MOOD MKII is added, while the TAPE mode is used to generate micro-loops with a warm, lo-fi tone."
