I've tried the standalone version and it's definitely worth the €15 ....

Lissajous Ableton Live Version (M4L Version)

There is now a wonderful M4L version which works directly with Ableton Live. Users will be able to use Lissajous within their projects, and to midi map all of its parameters.

Just bought the bundle option :)

 

Quick question, absolutely love the sounds that come out of this - In the m4l version is it possible to turn on & off the visualiser? Would love to use this for a synth for sound production, though with the video window on screen all the time doing other stuff on Ableton makes things a little tricky !

 

ps. I use a dark theme on Ableton which automatically sets the dropdown window background colour to white, the problem is the text on the dropdown in this plugin is also set to white so as you can imagine it's a little tricky to read ! The only way I can read what's on the list is by hovvering the mouse up and down the menu. Not a big issue but thought I'd flag ...

Lissajous - New updated M4L version

 

Audiobulb is excited to bring you an innovative audio & image creative tool.

Lissajous is a real-time audio reactive graphics application (available as Standalone or MaxForLive) built in Max/MSP and inspired by the work of Jules Antoine Lissajous.

The media project is born with the purpose of investigating the relationship between sound and vision, chaos and order, closely related to astronomy, mathematics & physics. It explores the field of harmony and disorder and let the user dip into an elegant, dreamlike, minimalistic yet chaotic space which reflects the complex rules of the universe in all its abstract beauty.

The software shows sound oscillations as XY matrix functions and creates complex graphics curves. Lissajous graphically describes sound and allow observation of constantly varying signal voltage of two audio signals as function of time. Video generated by sound can be controlled in endless ways by giving to the user the possibility of a whole-new range of interactions.

Operating System: PC Windows or Mac computer (not ipad or iphone).

Lissajous comes in two forms:

1. Lissajous Standalone Module
2. Lissajous Ableton Live Version (M4L Version)
