Fast, fuzzy search across 8,891 Max for Live devices
max4.live is a fast, fuzzy, filterable search across 8,891 Max for Live devices for Ableton Live - audio effects, instruments, MIDI effects, generators, and transformations, indexed from maxforlive.com. Filter by type and license (Free, Commercial, Creative Commons); sort by relevance, name, newest, or downloads. The same catalog you know, but actually searchable. Unofficial tool over maxforlive.com data - not affiliated with Cycling '74 or Ableton, and doesn't host or sell devices. Free to use.
Hey PH, Tamas here, solo maker (and Ableton nerd). maxforlive.com is an amazing catalog of Max for Live devices, but actually FINDING the right one - the specific granular delay, the utility MIDI generator - is rough. So I built max4.live: a fast, fuzzy, filterable search over the same 8,891 devices, indexed from maxforlive.com. Filter by type and license (Free / Commercial / Creative Commons), sort by downloads or newest. Same catalog you know, just actually searchable. Important: it's an UNOFFICIAL search tool over maxforlive.com's data - not affiliated with Cycling '74 or Ableton, and it doesn't host or sell anything; it points you to the original. Free. Two things I'd love feedback on: (1) what's the device you can never find when you need it? (2) which filters/sorts would make this a daily tool for you? Thanks for looking.
Finally, a way to actually find stuff in the maxforlive catalog without scrolling forever. The type and license filters are super handy, especially when you just want to browse free instruments.
