IRCAM IRCAMAX 1 v1.1 [Max for Live]

Developed at the legendary IRCAM institute in Paris, this Pack contains six Max for Live effects and one instrument for advanced real-time sound processing and manipulation.

Since opening in 1977, the Institute for Research and Coordination in Acoustics/Music has been at the forefront of technological developments in musical expression. Artists who have worked at IRCAM include John Cage and Iannis Xennakis, to name just a few. Among the countless technical innovations to have come out of the Paris institution, John Chowning's pioneering work in FM synthesis and Miller Puckette's development of Max are perhaps the two that have had the profoundest impact on modern music and music-making.

In recent years, IRCAM has developed devices that provide access to deep sound-shaping capabilities through interfaces that invite intuitive and musical interaction. Taking full advantage of the Max for Live platform, IRCAMAX 1 represents a selection of unique IRCAM devices and instruments optimized for use with Ableton Live.
