| Description: | What Slip Does Slip is built on Ableton Live 12's MIDI Transformation Tool architecture, the same system that powers Live's built-in transforms like Recombine and Connect. That means it operates directly on note data inside the clip, not on the track's global playback timing. You can nudge individual notes by any number of milliseconds, ahead of the beat for attack emphasis, behind the beat for a dragged feel, without changing the timing of any other note in the clip, any other clip in the session, or your export mix. Track delay, by contrast, shifts the entire track by a fixed offset. It affects every clip, every note. And critically, it doesn't render on export — the offset you hear in your session disappears the moment you bounce. Slip operates at the note level, non-destructively, and exports cleanly. Ableton's track delay moves the whole track — and it doesn't export. If you need to nudge a single MIDI note forward or back by milliseconds without touching anything else in your session, there's no native way to do it. Slip is a Max for Live MIDI tool that moves notes forward or backward in time inside the clip — non-destructively, per-note, with millisecond precision. Slip Use Cases Pocket a bassline Nudge bass notes a few milliseconds behind the kick to lock in the pocket without quantising the feel out of the performance Correct a recording Shift a single misplaced note into time without re-recording the whole clip Layer percussion Offset individual hits across multiple MIDI drum tracks to build a wider, more human-sounding stereo image Fix polyphonic timing Adjust the attack timing of individual notes in a chord to control the roll or strum feel Micro-groove programming Program ghost-note timing variations between hi-hats and snares that quantise would otherwise flatten |
