XP

About
XP is an integrated solution designed to expand with simplicity Ableton Live potential toward the field of spatial audio design and performance.
The goal of XP is to provide Ableton users with a flexible and simplified environment to create 3d audio projects.
It is made of 5 max for live devices and a standalone application that users have to purchase.
Given the challenge of developing such environnement in Ableton Live, it was nonetheless important to remain as much as possible in the spirit of what makes its workflow unique, a subtil balance in the direction of artistic creativity and live spontaneity.
The project is partly based on Ircam Spat~ , a library of Max/MSP objects for real-time spatial processing of sounds. It's a unique set of tools for its ability to simulate virtual acoustic spaces.
XP is therefore intended for past, new or future users of the Spat library. Although possible before xp4l existed, accessing the library from Ableton Live in the max-for-live environment through a flexible format by users was made complex, and this fact deprived the majority of creators from taking advantage of this incredible tool.
