In my current patch, I made a LFO using the [phasor] object, and then I've translated its output into data using [snapshot]. Now, I'm aiming to establish the rate of data output (grain) at ~50ms. 

Initially, I considered using [line] for this purpose, but it seems to work only when generating a ramp.

Are there any other objects you'd recommend for achieving this goal, either within the audio processing part or after the [snapshot] operation?

So I found an app that is supposed to be a remote software for the Emu Emulator III sampler. I found this on the old EIII forums. The app was designed for Mac in late 2013 so I cannot open it with my current machine (still intel based, but running 2019 i9 machine with Ventura). 

However the person who made it mentioned he used Max as a basis. When I viewed the package contents, I saw that there is an .mxf file in there. I looked up how to convert .mxf to maxpat with a hex editor and successfully converted it. Now it opens and looks good, but I am getting an error of 

js: js: no function closedb [sqlite_DDV_EIII.js]"

I'm not sure what this means or if this max file is even enough to run the remote software. Anyone have an idea? I've attached the converted max file here. And a link to the actual old app is here:

I'm trying to create an automated file-name changer with the shell object.  It works with individual files but not with multiple files at the same time. Is there any reason why?

The process is very simple: A [dropfile] gives the path for a file, a bunch of regexp to prepend a number (with a [counter]) for the file. I made some text files TEST1.txt, TEST2.txt and TEST3.txt to try it in order and they should return 0-TEST1.txt, 1-TEST2.txt and so on...

That works completely fine when I'm trying individual files, but if I use [dropfile] to [folder] and [absolutepath] the content, for some reason doesn't work. It only changes the first file. In the above example, it would return 0-TEST1.txt but the other files remain the same. I printed the messages going to [shell] and they are all correct, I don't understand why it won't change the files

Any ideas? Is there a limitation in iterating messages to [shell]?

I'm attaching the patch I used for my texts. Excuse me if the renaming process isn't very clean, but it should work

I installed the Bach Package and when I hit the 'B' button, it goes out a bach. object instead of bang. Since I'm not using this package yet, I've uninstalled it and restarted the Max. But the problem is still there. Funny thing is sometimes when I press the keyboard B, bang comes out; sometimes a bach.... object comes out. How can I fix this?

4 Multisliders with only two values (0+1) same size and only one of them can have a one at that specific slider number. Example (8bars) so when you draw on MS 1 Bar 1  it sets all other MS to 0 at bar 1. 

Set MS 2 Bar 3 to 1 and it sets all other multislider to 0 at that one.  etc

must be sth with lists maybe also counter

Hi guys, I'm trying to map the bypass toggles in this mapping device to a macro knob such that each bypass button is only switched on at specific ranges of the rack macro, problem is it's impossible to define a range when mapping it. Is there any way to make it have a range?

as you can see from patch or pic, i am really trying to step through how gen~ processes one sample at a time. My mai questio here is, is switch tested/queried/outputs at any time a value arrives at any inlet or only when a value is received in the first inlet? What trobles me, is that according to my step thru, event one (e1) seems to send both a value from the recipt at inlet 1 and inlet 2, which would cause 2 values backed up at history, both which seem problematically within the same sample frame. I lost my train of thought, so please not that my event scheduling loses it some point.

I suppose the more general question is, how does gen handle events? when we say that gen handles processing 1 sample at a time, per sample frame, does it follow right to left order? does switch respond to any value in any slot?

I have this simple patch where I am just dropping a folder with some videos on a jit.gl.polymovie object.

Basically every time I do that, Max becomes unresponsive.

The folder contains videos in mp4 format and it is just 250 MB overall, my machine is an M1 Max with 64 GB of ram.

I am not sure why this is happening, any help?
