Envelop is a non-profit organization that amplifies the connective power of music through immersive listening spaces and open source spatial audio software. Three-dimensional experiences of sound and music bring people together, catalyzing shared moments of inspiration, empathy and wonder.
EnvelopLX is an interactive lighting application for Envelop. It runs in Processing using the LX Studio framework. The system may be controlled directly, or via remote OSC control from Envelop for Live devices, which can be composed and sequenced within Ableton Live 10. Real-time spatial audio metering and position data can also be used to control animation.
EnvelopLX is free to use — but it takes time, energy, and resources to create and maintain. If you find these tools useful, please consider making a donation to support the Envelop nonprofit organization: https://www.envelop.us/membership-donations
