Hi everyone. On occasion I post updates here about my music creation platform. This community drives me to learn and grow, and I am constantly impressed by the level of sophistication by the posters here and the depth on knowledge on this forum. For that reason, I’d really appreciate hearing any feedback you may have on the progress of this software, or your feature requests. I’d even love to hear if you have comments or thoughts on the copy that I’m using to promote the update! So, without any further delay, here’s the official announcement:
The Music and Sound Design Platform is a 100% free and open-source tool for the design and performance of live electronic music. It is available as a free download for Windows and MacOS, and the Max 7 source code is available on GitHub.

MSDP is designed around a non-linear pedal board system that includes 64 modules that can be created and combined however you’d like. Our module list currently includes 11 instruments, 33 effects and filters, and 20 tools and utilities and has modules that provide full VST compatibility. Develop system scores to have the computer follow your performances, or design controller setups to get in-depth manipulation of every knob and parameter in the program.
This is a really flexible and unique program, and it utilizes the full strength of Max 7 to create something new. Treat it like the ultimate guitar pedal rig, or make compelling live compositions from scratch. Four granular tools, several stochastic (chaos) controllers, and a large variety of electronic music staples makes this a very robust system for all kinds of performances. We are often compared to a more intuitive and contemporary Ppooll, and you can design everything from droney soundscapes to searing chaotic drum patterns without having to do any programming.
Our latest update, version 1.3.0 just launched today, and includes the ability to completely save and re-load projects exactly where you left them. We also have a brand-new wavetable synthesizer, expanded metronome sync options, and much more. You can read all about the updates in detail in our latest news post: http://musicsdp.com/music_sdp-1-3-is-here-with-massive-new-features/
Music_SDP is completely free because we believe that powerful and impactful tools can change the world. We think that a better society is one where everyone has access to professional software, and that income should not be a barrier to the creative spirit.
