Tree Tone is a new instrument and effect found in Live 11 Suite, designed by Dillon Bastan in collaboration with Ableton. I've linked to it further down in the text. In the KZitem subtitles I've put some performance notes.
Short explanation: Here I use 8 different instances of Tree Tone - an instrument based on virtual trees - to generate a variety of plucked, struck and almost bowed sounds. You can see the tree in question react to the sounds being generated by it behind me.
With Tree Tone it's possible to generate trees whereby each branch represents a resonator with its own frequency, decay and amplitude. Longer and thicker branches are louder and have a longer sustain. The tree's branches can be played either by MIDI notes or they can be struck/excited by built in noise generators. It's also possible to use it as an audio effect - but here I only used Tree Tone as an instrument, sometimes playing it with Push, but mostly modulating the various generators.
I found Tree Tone very inspiring, in particular the "rain" generators. They sound very organic to me and generate very dynamic yet somehow organic tones. I think it's a beautiful addition to Live, and bravo to Dillan and Ableton for the result - I actually don't know how that collaboration worked exactly but perhaps Dillan can fill us in! It's also a beautifully visualised instrument, done in a simple yet effective way, something which isn't at all easy. I can see it becoming part of my sonic toolkit.

The video itself was a little tricky to set up, and also edit in a way that makes some kind of sense - I also spotted the reflection on Push's screen too late. Again an interesting learning experience, and you can always let me know any feedback or ideas you have.
As always, my sincere thanks go most of all to my students/WRKSHPers at @WRKSHP who through their support of my work at the school allow me to make time to make videos like these.
