Sinewave Reel from Morphagene (Reels Pack)
https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...
Recomposing the Architecture of Sound
The Make Noise Morphagene functions as a system for reorganizing recorded time. Each splice and grain becomes a modular event, where sound is reshaped through control voltage, feedback, and probability.
The Morphagene Reels Sample Pack ver.2.1 extends this system by providing a collection of reel structures designed for direct use. It includes 26 sets of curated sound materials that range from TB-303 inspired acid patterns to dubstep modulations, color bass textures, rave stabs, Wave atmospheres, retro PCM timbres, breakbeats, and industrial percussive elements. Every reel is pre-labeled with accurate splice points, enabling immediate interaction within Morphagene without additional editing."

Ambient | LYRA-8 & Ableton REcho
video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto
"The SOMA LYRA-8 has earned a reputation as one of the most unconventional analog synthesizers ever built. It does not follow the rules of standard pitch, MIDI sequencing, or predictable modulation. Instead, it generates sound through an organic interaction of oscillators, distortion stages, and feedback paths. Every note is less a fixed frequency and more a living event shaped by your touch, voltage instabilities, and the nonlinear behavior of its circuitry.

Minimoog & Ableton SOLFA – A Generative MIDI Sequencer for Minimal and Experimental Music
video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto
"SOLFA – A Generative MIDI Sequencer for Minimal and Experimental Music
https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...
Inspired by Arvo Pärt, Designed for Creative Exploration
SOLFA is a generative MIDI sequencer for Ableton Max for Live, built for electronic music producers, experimental composers, ambient sound designers, and those interested in algorithmic composition. Inspired by the works of Arvo Pärt, this tool allows you to create evolving, hypnotic patterns that seamlessly blend tonal minimalism with rhythmic complexity.
Minimal Pitch, Infinite Possibilities
At the core of SOLFA is a simple seven-note sequence. These notes are randomized across octaves, generating organic melodic shifts. This structured yet fluid approach results in endlessly varying musical textures that maintain a coherent harmonic identity.
Independent Rhythmic Structures
SOLFA employs isorhythmic principles, where the pitch sequence operates independently from the rhythm pattern. This allows for intricate, evolving interactions between melody and rhythm, giving rise to unexpected yet deeply musical results.
Ideal for Generative and Experimental Music
Whether you're composing ambient soundscapes, intricate polyrhythmic pieces, or avant-garde electronic music, SOLFA provides a unique method for crafting evolving compositions with minimal input. By embracing randomness within defined constraints, it encourages exploration while maintaining musical cohesion.
Unlock New Creative Dimensions
Transform simple ideas into dynamic, evolving sequences with SOLFA. Experiment with chance, structure, and unpredictability to discover new musical possibilities. Now available for Max for Live."

Buchla Sparkle | Music Easel
video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto
"Buchla Modular Synth Sample Pack
https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...
An inquiry into timbre shaped by the circuitry of a singular electronic instrument
A system built for exploration
Don Buchla’s electronic instruments can be understood as musical tools and as environments for exploration. They allow performers to play in a physical and expressive way, yet they also invite a method of working that resembles research into the behavior of voltage and timbre.
Buchla did not follow the conventions of keyboard based instruments. Instead he created systems in which sound could be shaped through touch sensitive controls, complex modulation, and freely arranged signal paths. As a result, each patch becomes both a performance setup and a place to investigate how tones, noise sources, control voltages and modulation can interact within an electronic space.
This sample pack carries that spirit forward through recordings made with the Buchla Music Easel Modern. It offers a survey of sonic behavior, inviting listeners to study the subtle warmth that emerges when complex oscillators interact. It highlights the characteristic percussive transients of low pass gates. It captures broadband noise shaped by minute spectral movements. It presents drones formed by slow feedback interactions and microscopic frequency shifts. The goal is to provide raw material for creators who wish to work closely with the textures that define this family of instruments."

Ableton Datashifter Max for Live Device
video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto
https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...
"Most glitch processors treat rhythm as something to destroy. Datashifter takes a more controlled approach. It breaks the surface of percussion while preserving the force underneath.
Designed as an Ableton Max for Live device, Datashifter captures short fragments of incoming stereo audio into an internal memory system, then reads those fragments back through multiple voices. These voices can stutter, reverse, jump to earlier moments, or shift playback speed in octave based steps.
The result is not a simple repeat effect. It feels closer to a live editing system for drum time. The groove continues to move forward, while small pieces of its memory are rearranged, folded, interrupted, and returned to the beat.

Sinewave Feedback FM | Make Noise Shared System
video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto
"A textural expedition into modular synthesis
This pack is a deep dive into the sonic world of Make Noise, the Asheville-based modular synthesizer company known for redefining how musicians interact with sound.
Drawing inspiration from the vision of founder Tony Rolando, who sought to create instruments that invite play, exploration, and complexity, this collection offers sounds you cannot extract from conventional DAWs or virtual synths alone.
All material was produced entirely with Make Noise modular systems, capturing their distinctive tonal character and lively unpredictability. It is designed for electronic music producers who value raw texture, voltage-driven chaos, and intricate sound design rooted in hardware.
That is 1951 oneshots and 1059 loops, each chosen for its uniqueness and modular authenticity.
This pack is not static. All purchases include free lifetime updates. Files are continuously added over time, rewarding those who support early and stay involved. If you've already bought the pack, you now have access to the latest additions at no extra cost. If not, this is a perfect moment to jump in.
Perfect for those working in experimental club music, ambient, glitch, techno, leftfield bass, or soundtracks that need something unfamiliar yet compelling.
This is not just a sample pack. It is a collection of sonic experiments born from voltage and possibility."

Elektron Machinedrum
video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto
"Machinedrum Sample Pack
https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...
The Elektron Machinedrum, first introduced in the early 2000s, was not simply a drum machine. It was a digital architecture built to generate percussion with surgical precision and metallic sharpness. Its synthesis models produced results that went beyond drum programming, moving into the territory of sound design. Even today, no software plugin has managed to fully replicate its distinctive texture.
This collection captures that uniqueness. Every sample was recorded directly from the Machinedrum itself. No external processing, no layering. What you hear is the circuitry of early Elektron design, distilled into one-shots that highlight the instrument’s raw identity."
