LDM Design

LDM Design is the brainchild of Daniel Malcolm, who started creating Max For Live devices in 2016.

The project has since expanded into developing apps for the Roli Lightpad Block, creating packs for Novation Circuit and further sound design with synth presets and sample packs. He has created the best-selling Chance packs, Gravity pack and the Midi Filter pack, as well as the popular Organizm Circuit pack.

His Max For Live devices are distinguished by a clear unique GUI and minimalist design.

Chance Pack FOUR by LDM Design

MPE-friendly functional MIDI filters, modifiers and probability

COMPATIBILITY: Ableton Live 11 Suite or Ableton Live 11 Standard with MaxforLive Installed

£33.00

10 more functional and creative devices initially inspired by the scripts used by Brian Eno, refined and updated for full MPE compatibility. LDM Design has yet again brought another selection of useful but simple devices to alter the course of your MIDI streams and introduce a little chaos into your Live creations.

The Chance Pack FOUR includes devices for splitting and randomizing based on velocity or pitch bands, filtering and modifying notes, quantizing velocity values and triggering clusters of notes. Each of the devices is designed specifically to allow MPE data to pass through, and is fully optimized for controlling using Push or mapping to any midi controller.

    SICU by LDM Design

    Expressive MPE Pan Flute Instrument

    COMPATIBILITY: Ableton Live 11 / 12 Suite or Ableton Live 11 / 12 Standard with MaxforLive Installed

    £16.00

    Sicu is a boutique physically modeled MPE Pan Flute instrument. Minimalist controls make way for simple and effective hands-on play which responds to Aftertouch / Channel Pressure and MPE pitch bends. Although optimised for a realistic pan flute sound, the instrument also allows for a much longer envelope to create breathing pad sounds.

      Unstable length modulated sequencer

      COMPATIBILITY: Ableton Live 11 Suite or Ableton Live 11 Standard with MaxforLive Installed

      £20.00

      Build on the idea of instability, this MPE compatible sequencer creates constantly changing patterns of notes with modulated note parameters. Each time the sequence reaches the end, the sequence length itself grows or shrinks, within predefined limitations, creating unpredictable rhythmic patterns. The changes in length can also be mapped to velocity level, note length, and MPE slide and pressure parameter values.The device consists of 8 note sequencers with individual controls for grow mode, step size, minimum and maximum sequence length, growth amount, hold, and probability. It also includes the option to freeze specific sequences to prevent changes. Global controls allow us to set swing amount to loosen up midi timing and note pitches can be set using a scale selection.
