    The EP, all of the 5.1 stuff, AND two bespoke music apps which I developed to write the EP. Both were developed using Max/MSP; which you'll need to install on your machine (no extra payment necessary, you can use the apps without paying for the software, you just can't make any apps of your own. Go here to get it: cycling74.com/downloads/#.V5nBuZMwjOY ).

    'Drone Machine' is an app designed to help you make 'ambient bed' type sounds, featuring 16 independent oscillators, 4 waveshapes plus a noise source, and various modulation options. You create the sound and export it as an audio file, which you can then import to any program you like. You can watch a video of me showing how it works here: youtu.be/A-zVaMJAGQs


    'Maximal Rhythm' is designed to help you make 'non-standard' beats, a lot of which I used whilst writing the Max/Min EP. It sends MIDI data to any DAW that will accept it (I use it with Ableton Live, but Cubase, Reason etc will all work too. There are 5 independent modules which send MIDI data on individual MIDI note channels. You can choose between relative time (bars/beats) and absolute time (mins/seconds) for each module independently. There is a designated 'kick' module via which you can run various non-standard time signatures. It also comes with an Ableton Live project to get you up and running quickly (you'll need to install Ableton Live on your machine, get it here: www.ableton.com/en/trial/). You can watch a video of me showing how it works here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCbeRK5XFpI

    There's also a tutorial video of me using both apps together with Ableton Live to compose, it's here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjOdggopkmY

    The tutorial videos should be enough to get you up and running, but if you need any help I will answer all queries by email.
