Cool. I'll give it a go in two months!

At the very least, this can be used as a surround matrix for live. Thats pretty cool.

I agree, this sounds interesting ... once it was interpreted by others for me

Your writing style is very confusing, and hurts the marketing of your app

Find someone to write for you. IMO

There is no need to be all overly artsy about this. Ok, so you made something in Max and you want people to use it, then give it to them straight.

Fluffy designs and spiel are all well and good, but not if people can't get around it and understand for themselves.

And concerts in Huts' virtual reality headspace!

In layman's English, please, without the bullshit marketing acid-trip talk.

I for one may then possibily be interested, but this is just starting to piss me off.

I'll carry on with my envelope panning I'm doing in Live if I want virtual spaceships piloted by Huts to whoosh around the quadraphonic dancefloor!

Otherwise, Huts, take your advertising shit elsewhere, please.

Also your website is still "Untitled Document"

Really...... You need text on your site or it is invisible to google.

At least put the text as a ALT on the images.... and turn off imagetoolbar
meta so that the IE image download toolbar doesn't come up on
mouseover.

It's a nice design ethic but it just doesn't work.

This program looks like it could be really useful to me, but it keeps bugging out.

It will not connect to Live via Rewire. When I open the "status" window it tells me that Rewire failed.

And then when I change something like the number of channels, I get an evil high pitched squeal that efficiently clears the entire room.

Has anyone else had similar issues with this program? I can't get any help from the site.

Hi,
I do not have problems to connect it with Live.
In the configuration window I choose Rewire in Input .
Rewire Device (but down) I choose Ableton Live.
And then load Live.

My system is G5/10.3.7 and M-AUDIO

best.

huts, assuming your tool can move a sound 360 degrees around the listener on a flat plane - i.e. Left/Right/Front/Back - can it also move it up and down?

Can it achieve this on a regular 2 channel sound system?

Can you post an MP3 demo of what the tool can produce?

thanks

Yeah, Live doesn't even come up as an option in the Rewire Device drop down list for some reason. Maybe a bad install? I usually don't use Macs, only for this one project, so I don't know what kind of things can go wrong when installing apps like this.

I'm running a G5 OSX and M-Audio Firewire 410

I just spotted this on the Live update thread:

[01] Bug: ReWire shared library

Platform: Mac OS X

Previous version of Live 4.1.x had a corrupt ReWire library.
Live now re-install ReWire library also if it is the correct version
but a different size in order to correct a previously installed
corrupt version

Status: Fixed

I'm pretty sure the copy of Live that I had been using hasn't been updated ie is version 4.0.3

Any chance this is the problem? I'll install the update anyway to be sure.
