ADM Vinyl Ableton Project

Vinyl is a collection of 50 Ableton Live Instrument Racks that have the sound of vinyl records.

The instruments were created from micro samples of a collection of vinyl records featuring music of the Pacific Islands and the Americas. Individual notes of a variety of instruments were isolated and tuned to be played back as sample-based synthesizer instruments. The crackling of the vinyl inherent in each sound is apparent in each instrument, giving it character and analog warmth, as well as some grit and texture.
