Touchdesigner (TD) is a visual programming environment designed for multimedia applications. It is available for MacOS and Windows. It can easily be used with many other software programs, including Ableton Live.

There's a sizable community of Touchdesigner users and developers with all kinds of support including a Touchdesigner marketplace website.

We developed a plugin to use with Touchdesigner as well as examples, see below.
