"wo last things before I leave:
1 - While the 1.0 has been working well for me, software for me is always a work in progress. If you find any proper bugs or issues, please email me via the Contact form on the website or leave a comment on this post. I'll keep an eye on it.
2 - The AU version was built using a free Juce license so you'll see a nice splash image for Juce in the corner. I'll fix this once start working more with AU / VST plugins and get a proper license."

Usage:
to get the full power of your DDRM use a polyphone Midi Keyboard with poly aftertouch.
the DDRM can analyze the "new" MPE protocol over Midi.
just try a Roli Seaboard or a Linnstrument
more MPE devices are listed here: http://www.rogerlinndesign.com/other-mpe-controllers.html
Important: Ableton Live 10 don't support MPE - you have to change the DDRM Midi Mode otherwise you get some problems with hanging Notes or freezes.
