BBCut and LiveCut

I’ve started making 2 VST plugins dedicated to breakbeat Cutting inspired by Nick Collins library for SuperCollider called BBCut.
thus the name BBCut for the instrument and LiveCut for the effect.
I have finally something roughly working and here is a demo.

BTW it seems that LiveCut isn’t a very unique name so if you were after live concerts or video editing, maybe you’ll find what you were looking for on one of those 2 sites:

  • i think it would be great if you could turn the cutting/rehashing on and off using automation so that you could make certain parts of a sequence unaltered, and chop up others.

  • Please please please make an intel mac compatible version!!!

  • I’ve not seen anyone mention the worst bug I repeatedly encounter which is currently the bane of my musical creativity – it simple stops outputting audio or outputs in very spuradic, short segments, this is not always the case but more often than not it is – atleast when I reload a track it seems, usually not during the original creation, I have tried all the following things but not been able to resolve the issuse and I hardly see how your anywhere near an alpha with this issuse in place:

    A)Changing settings in the VST
    B)Reloading the plug-in in the sequencer
    C)Lowering audio buffers
    D)Adding it to a different point in the sequence – if there are multiple instances running they all behave in this manner and seem to output audio in the same spuradic 2-3 times every 8 bars sorta fashion
    E)Deleting & Reinstalling the .dll (This includs deleting any intial registry entries and other files which reference it)
    F)Replacing 0.8 with 0.9 – issuse is the same in both of them

    it’s pretty basic so I can think of little to do other than that, I really like your software and interface desgin but for some reason it lacks functionality in my setup, I would dearly enjoy seeing the issuse resolved but I do not even see it addressed in bugs reports, fixes, comments etc…I’m certain it’s not an issuse that’s computer specific though as I can replicate the error on multiple machines

  • way cool plugin, except for the randomness of it. the demo song was cool too until you chopped up Squarepusher’s “Kill Robok” at the end. Squarepusher is way to original to plagiarize, but your point is well taken.

  • love the vst man.
    i used it on a track on my page.

    nice work.
    Anychance of making a more stable one that wont crash ableton live?

    i would definatly use this vst live, but its kind of unreliable.
    Fair play though!
