VOID Shared Memory — Live / TouchDesigner Envelope Follower
VOID envFollower Max for Live Device is part of the VOID Shared Memory suite and allows audio amplitude data extracted in Ableton Live to be sent to TouchDesigner in real time, enabling envelope-driven control of visual or generative systems without MIDI, OSC or network-based protocols.
The device provides a continuous envelope signal derived from audio sources in Live, making it suitable for dynamic modulation, audio-reactive visuals and tightly coupled audiovisual behaviors.

🧩 VOID Shared Memory is a real-time communication system designed to exchange data between Ableton Live / Max for Live and TouchDesigner, using ultra-light, low-latency shared memory.
Distributed as a research initiative, the project brings together a set of tools and proofs of concept designed and developed in-house by @julienbayle within Structure Void’s research and development work. It includes Max for Live devices, Max externals, TouchDesigner operators (CHOPs), as well as Ableton Live demo sets and TouchDesigner demo networks, conceived as experimental, robust and reusable technical building blocks.
