I'm trying to record some triggers into a data buffer using gen, but it appears that this does not work. I guess it's because the triggers are so short. I've included a trivial example to demonstrate this and it appears you need the pulse width to be at least 0.2 for recording to work accurately. Is there something that I need to do differently in my gen code to make this work for shorter pulses?

Please note that increasing the pulse width is not really a suitable fix, as unlike the trivial example attached my triggers are actually generated in another gen patch which is doing [delta]->[abs]->[> threshold] on another signal to generate the output, so there's no easy way to extend the duration (unless someone can suggest something!)

I have a patch where I get wind directions from an API. Depending on the incoming wind direction, it triggers a sound. I used route for now but I think there are more efficient ways that I am probably forgetting about. Anyone can put me on the right path please?

I made an fbx model with vertex color information, imported it into max and tried to use various attributes in " 

.mesh", but I still cannot read the vertex color information. Does max jitter support this function ? 

Here is my attempt along with the model file.

I tested in Blender, Touchdesigner, Unreal, the model and vertex color information is valid, and the call is simple.

I just came into contact with max and found that its logic is very special. I would like to know how to call the vertex color information of the 3d model in max. Thank you very much for your help.

I am trying to workaround some behavioral nuances (*cough* crashes *cough*) between running/saving a device in Max and in Live, and could workaround them if I were able to detect which environment my js object was running in.

Hi! I have a buffer~ inside a pfft~ abstraction which I am filling with basic waveforms via uzi's & whatnot. The issue is that any time I create or delete any signal connection anywhere within the parent patch, the buffer inside the pfft~ clears. I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this problem + any possible solutions. This does not seem to happen when the buffer contains an actual audio file, only when it contains arbitrary waveforms. Thanks!!

Raspberry Pi 4 B running the latest imager (bookworm) available here 

 (which btw doesn't have X server installed apparently, which is not a problem for me but looks weird)

Exporting this patch drives to an eternal "Sending Library" state and it doesn't seem to export the patch.

I did nothing more. Just exporting it, one time. It worked (even with the eternal "Sending Library" state).

I tried to export another rnbo patcher... it didn't the eternal "Sending Library" state again and didn't export it.

Hi, I want to zoom into a jit.gl.layer at a specific coordinate, not only the centre. I guess I need to combine scaleto and moveto with jit.anim.drive. Would anyone have a patch snippet ready? Otherwise, to calculate this myself I would need to know the size of the texture in the jit.gl.layer (but I can't find how to query this) in units for jit.anim.drive.  I read a little about gl units being -1 to 1, but my texture seems to be 2.5 units wide???
