I need some help, to understand the read and write function.

The help file says that WRITE will save a file in the same folder as the patcher, but for me it's saving to the application folder. and read can't find it, only if you search for it manually.

It seems to the pipe, there is my problem

if you name max patches same as max objects, that will break them

I don't do that in my device, that was only for demo ......

Excuse me all, I am attempting to send MIDI between 2 MacBook Pros using the Audio MIDI Setup. There is a lag in communication between the two patches that are on each computer. I don't have ethernet cable availability. Is there any sure way to reduce the lag in regard to sending MIDI? I might try a better network.

I'm not sure what kind of bug this is and I'm hip to blame Apple buuuuut

Export plugin has some wacky behavior. The AUv2 "effect" export validates in both Logic and Ableton but it doesn't appear on the plugin drop-down menu in Logic while simultaneously working fine in Ableton.

To be clear, the plugin shows up in the Logic plugin manager as "successfully validated" and has a nice blue check mark alluding to me being able to use it however, it doesn't appear in the plugin insert drop-down menu. Meanwhile, it works fine in Ableton

After some digging it seems perhaps the code is not properly signed to Logic's requirements to at a minimum to "run locally"
maybe
Ableton doesn't care

Yes, this is a "bump"
ANybody else having this issue?

The AU works fine in Ableton.

Hey MANYSOUNDS,

Can you submit a bug ticket with a minimal patcher and steps that shows this problem? Please make sure to provide your system information:

Will do. Checking to be sure it isn't a stupid on my end first :P

I made a simple synth patch that attempts to approximate the sound of a Chinese sheng. It works but after playing a few notes it seems like the ADSR inside the synth voices stops working properly. That makes me think there's a problem with how I've set up thispoly~ and/or the ADSR. As far as I can tell, though, I've set it up exactly the way I've seen it successfully done in other patches. So what am I missing?

We can't see the content of the poly~ patcher, so we can't really help.
But when it comes to using [adsr~] in a poly~, check if you are doing it like in the adsr~ Help file, tab 'poly'.

Thanks for your reply.
Here's a screenshot of what's inside the synth voices inside poly~. As far as I can tell, I'm doing it like it's done in the help files.

It seems the new live objects can't 'survive' without the scripting name. I can delete it but every time I open again the patcher the default scripting name is there again.

Is there a reason for that? I would prefer to be able to delete it; it causes some minor issues in my configuration, e.g. they are always exposed to pattr system.

new-live-objects-and-scripting-name

In the Live ui object's inspector, set parameter visibility to 'hidden'.

Maybe I'm missing something, but every time I open again the patcher, the scripting name (a default name) is there and visible to pattr, in spite of the 'hidden' setting.

maybe I'm missing something too. ?
I'd also just like to exclude live objects from the autopattr system, same problem as matteo. edit: The seemingly unevitable scriptingname also appears in the clientwindow of the pattrstorage object, despite Hidden setting, of course..
cheers
wtg


why don't you just exclude these objects from the pattr system with the second outlet of an autopattr ?


Because i usually do it the other way, which is not a good reason, but this method also seems to introduce more objects and patchcords to patchers which are hard to keep tidy anyways.. But thanks(!) that's kind of a solution.
Still there should  be a way..?


I'm using the "2th outlet technique", too, even if I prefer the other way...

But I'd like to know if there's a specific reason live.objects must always have a scripting name...

I guess there is a reason with Live's way of working...

But I just found this trick :
loadbang to message "varname" to your Live object
it opens your Live object with a blank scripting name


I confirm Live objects are not hidden to pattrstorage when using the 'hidden' parameter (Max 6.0.8).
Strange behaviour.


is this bug is still alive ?
i am tying to delete the scripting name of a live.toggle object.

if i set  the ‘hidden’ parameter, the scripting name disappear, but if i reload the patch, the scripting name is still there.

perhaps someone from cycling has a hint ?

excluding from the pattrstorage is not an option.

I think the 'hidden' attribute must be seen in the context of M4L as it ensures that the parameter value is not saved with the Live set. But you may not always want to exclude it automatically from pattrstorage which provides a different layer of preset management.


I'm having this problem as well. I was trying to exclude certain M4L numbox  and dials from the pattr / autopattr / pattrstorage control, and I thought I achieved this by deleting the Scripting Names. However, default scripting names seem to be auto-regenerated.  

Does that indeed mean :
- The only way to exclude M4L numboxes and dials from the pattr system is to connect them to autopattr's second outlet 
   *and*
- Deleting the Scripting Names of these objects is not an effective way to achieve exclusion of these objects from the pattr system

another un-completed aspect of the max and live.object created for another framework but has some advantages over native max object if you stay in max , which mean that user want to use it for max msp project.

We should be able to delete the scripting name or load the object without a scripting name. It's no intuitive that you are able to delete it when you work (so why?), and then when you re open it, a default name is assigned again. We are all aware that live object require a scripting name to be seen in ableton automation.

The go around takes as stated before a loadmess varname, which  involved to create  unnecessary  load objects for such a tiny need.

In my Javascript code, I'm sending a pair of midi on and off messages to trigger a note event of a particular duration. However, over the course of the note event, it's possible that my script 'cuts' off held notes by sending just note off messages ahead of schedule.

The problem I have is that the original note off message is still scheduled, leading to some unwanted behaviour with notes being truncated where they shouldn't be.

Does RNBO give you the ability to flush the device to cancel any future scheduled events?

Hi, do some of you know how the processes within rnbo are cpu manageble. Like within max there is this mute~ object which is helpful. It's not included in rnbo. Are there other tools to exclude processes (subpatchers?) from the running loop? Or how is this done in general?

Hi, I seem to remember a little example patch which had a square in which you would draw lines with the mouse and they would loop once the mouse button was released. I can't find it anywhere though so I'm hoping to either find out where it is or that maybe my recollection of it is completely wrong.

I'm trying to build a standalone app using just one jit.gl.pix object with attribute @gen set to xfade (for trouble shooting reasons). The app is built succesfully copying both the external and the genjit-file.

When trying to open the app, a dialog appears asking for access to the Documents folder 10+ times and then crashes.

Does anyone know what makes the app crash when including the jitter.gl.pix object? Building apps with regular max msp objects works just fine.

Thanks for the reply, I tried adhoc code signing the app in the terminal but I'm not sure I succeed, the app still crashes if app is in Documents folder (but not if on Desktop). Regular Max and MSP objects works just fine (both places), it seems as if adding Jitter objects causes the app to crash. I'm a bit confused, any clue how to proceed from here? Thanks!

Sometimes the possibilities of using Max are so broad that we love a creative constraint as a way to get us focussed and thinking of new patching ideas. What if your patch only had one button in it to interact with? We invited three artists from the Max community to take the challenge and show us what they came up with. Here are the results of that challenge, with downloadable Max patches included…

oneBang is an interactive audiovisual patch. I wanted to create something that looks and sounds organic. It takes on a life of its own: engagement is encouraged but not essential. The movement (sonic and visual) is driven by a jit.bfg and gets transformed by a push of the button.

“One_Button_Ocean” generates three audio layers, with accompanying video streams. It contains white noise lowpass filter swells, impulse clicks and background noises. It randomly selects the speed between the clicks, the frequency of the background noise and the frequency/volume of the white noise low pass filter. The simple low-fi visuals of cyan “spurts” are generated by the clicks, light blue “triangle waveforms” are created by the background grumbles and dark blue “sine style waveforms” are made from the white noise swells. The results are a digital ocean.

This patch is based on the idea that an mc.comb~ object can be repurposed to create polyphonic Karplus-Strong synth chords. The ‘one button’ creates a stream of midi notes (taken from a chord stored in a table object) which are then converted to delay times for the mc.comb~ Karplus-Strong synth. To add some tonality, the resulting stereo signal then is fed through some buffir~ objects with continually updating source buffers – this sometimes gives the synth a piano-like timbre. A simple reverb, made from another mc.comb~ object with a ‘harmonic’ mc wrapper message, gives some dimensionality to the sound. Many of the patch’s parameters are randomised with each press of the ‘one button’, creating a different vibe each time.

This document and video will demonstrate how Falcon Spotlight provides a one-click solution to prioritized patching.Patch deployment is often scheduled as part of a regular maintenance window. However, there may be occasions where patching can’t wait, such as a newly disclosed vulnerability with known exploits that, if left unpatched, would expose the organization to significant risk.

The project ideas are superb i get more information from this .your work ideas are great and excellent .
Thanks guys for sharing .

We are excited to announce the availability of our 

 as a public beta. We’ve worked closely with 

. The Eventide H9000 is a rack-sized multi-effects unit with powerful DSP processing capabilities and numerous high quality built-in effects. We’re excited to enable RNBO export for this and open the door to unique custom studio effects and instruments without the strict limitations of other hardware platforms.

RNBO support is similar to the existing Gen support, but more streamlined, and uses the built-in 

, rather than a watcher patcher, to manage the export process. Eventually, all of these changes will be rolled into the standard release versions of RNBO and this package.
