Glitch VST for OSX

Hi,

Anyone know of a good glitch VST, like glitch one for PC? I find beat repeater a bit uncontrollable.

Livecut, Supatrigga and Buffer Overrider= Everything you need. But in reference to beat repeat being "uncontrollable", remember that you have to bounce down and edit the cuts manually. Don't be lazy

All that Glitch stuff is so yesterday... Not doing it, kind of seperates you from the rest...

Your comment is true in most scenarios, but not here really. Especially these stuttering effects are boring. It's an effect that automatically screams for attention and is different than let's say distortion, which helps putting the musical content in the foreground, not itself (the effect). It's almost like a sample, which gets used over and over again. Even non-producers like my friends get sick of it. I never experienced something like that with any other type of effect...

But hey, that's my opinion and who gives a fuck in here anyway...

Happy "stuttering" mate and sorry for hijacking your thread!

ya enrique does have a point. i tend to just resample a glitched up sound and throw it in a drum break at every 4 bar or something for some funkiness and possible tension building. lol funny though, telling live users to stop glitching and stuttering music is like asking dj's to get rid of all there cutoff filters.

Also check out Artillery by Sugar Bytes.
They have a demo on their site for download, aswell as some nice videos of their stuff in action. Really great for Glitch but also for creative live performance and creating weird effects etc.

Back in the 90's I used to say vocal distortion was the gated reverb of the 90's

but now...

+ layering what you bounce down and generally being creative

Beat repeat, glitch and the like have so much potential

Yeah, resampling, resampling and resampling is the key.

Following this post i've taken a bit of detour from my usual process of making music (build in session, jam, record to arrange). I'm working on the arrange timeline now - getting a groove, resampling, mashing, crushing etc, moving along the timeline stacking and building groove section after groove section and then coming back to arrange the whole thing.

I used to use an old Roland S750 sampler - for everything! - basically what i've started to do is treat Live as one big fuck off sampler, which of course it is!!

Right i'm off to play with side-chain compression now!!

Cheer for all the posts guys, this is the best forum on the web i've come across
