I try t o understand the behavior of the  gate object in max, and it's driving me crazy. I’ve set up a patch, but I can’t figure out why it’s not behaving as expected.

My understanding is that when I press the bang button, the 

 should immediately go to the right inlet of the gate and close it. Then, the delayed bang from the first output of the trigger will arrive at the left inlet of the gate. Since the gate is closed, I expect nothing to pass through to the print object.

But every time I press the bang button, I see 0 printed. This made me believe that the delayed bang is still passing through the gate, even though I thought the gate was closed.

Am I misunderstanding how the gate works? Or is there something wrong with this setup? I’ve attached the patch code below for reference.

Someone made a device for me, but it's not quite finished (the guy who coded it lost interest).

Anyone fancy doing the last bit of development?

It would be nice to keep it free for the community!

It's quite a unique device, please check it out here:

Apart from that, any comments are welcome!

i have a midifile (.mid) that I'm playing with [seq].

Since I want to have more control over it I'm thinking of having it as a coll/dict representation, with the midinote and the note timevalue (es: "45 1n").

What would be the easiest way to do this?

I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light whether it's possible for MAX 9 and it's new jitter geometry be able to generate 3d fractal worlds something akin to Mandelbulber and the 3d fractal worlds it can create something like this below?

I'm hoping to create some simple audio reactive 3d fractal worlds to be apart of my Max Msp performances. I'm pretty new to Max. I'm enjoying it and recently I created a live improvisational experimental soundscape piece using Max over some fractal visuals, however the visuals were not mine nor were they audio reactive, so it would be cool to learn how to do this. If Max is far off from doing anything like this, I'm also wondering if there's anyone here with mandelbulb experience who can share any info whether mandelbulb can be integrated with Max. I understand the computing requirements for fractal world generation can be huge, but perhaps simpler more efficient versions an be created to be able to be realtime audio reactive.

https://developer.apple.com/developer-id/

Wondering if anyone has tried to get their Apple Developer ID-signed Max standalone notarized by Apple, and how they did it.  There is some info that Apple provides, that suggests that one has to enable “hardened runtime” status for the app, which seems similar to the entitlements signing required for the App Store, but what I’m concerned about is that the examples Apple provides suggest that one has to do these things within XCode, which obviously won’t work for standalones created with Max:
