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.
Envelop for Live (E4L) is an open source audio production framework for spatial audio composition and performance. Envelop for Live operates within the music production environment of Ableton Live 10 and Max for Live. Envelop for Live is designed to be a highly modular, flexible platform for artists to compose and perform spatial audio, and for developers to create new kinds of audio effects for the Ambisonics domain.
E4L makes use of the advanced routing capabilities in Live 10 and Max for Live. Before continuing, make sure that you have installed both of these packages.

HOA Utilities and Effects
EnvelopLX is an interactive LED lighting application for Envelop, which enables synchronized control over lighting patterns and animation in LED-enabled Envelop spaces. It also offers a 3D simulation UI, so that lighting effects can be rehearsed and prepared when working outside of a physical Envelop space.
