Hello, I created a patcher in Max for separating High and Low frequencies from musics and display them in numbers between 0 and 1. My goal is to send the numbers to QLC+ for syncing the light with the music. My problem is my lack of knowledge in both Max and QLC+. I tried looking for answers everywhere I could, but I hit a wall everytime. Do someone have a hint on the situation?

sending-numbers-from-max-to-qlc

I am afraid you will need to at least learn a bit about that QLC+
to be able to tell here what it needs to receive to do what you want.

You want to send 2 floats out of max.
What does that QLC+ react to ? Midi, OSC ?
And what can it do with received values ?


I want to send floats from Max to QLC+ using OSC. The goal is to put those floats into two sliders in QLC+. I now know that I need to use udpsend, but I can't find a way to send the floats.


than all you need is UDP port to which QLC+ is set to listen to, and
also osc string

In Max you use udpsend object.
If QLC+ application is on same computer, you can format udpsend
udpsend 127.0.0.1 5555
that would send osc data to localhost on port 5555
You replace 5555 with real port number
------
osc string is prepended message which QLC+ recognises
as input for some control
one fictive example could look like
/qlc/fad1     ( input to control fader number 1)
in Max you would then create message
/qlc/fad1 $1  
and insert it between the float and udpsend
here for 2 floats :


Now all you need to find out is the port number
and osc string for parameters that you want to control.


Thank you very much! It works like a charm!

I've been trying to find external programmes to allow me to send OSC data from a Kinect sensor to Max. All I've found has been redirecting me either to https://jmpelletier.com/ or other websites and forum threads that are 6 - 10 years old. the main issue that I've encountered is that all of this programs either require me to download Xcode as well as multiple other programmes and libraries or simply don't work with my OS (Mojave). I managed to get a functioning version of the kit.freenect.grab object, so I can actually get data from Kinect , but still can't analyse it to track motion. I've tried the cv.jit objects , but still , nothing close to the amount of flexibility that the previously mentioned applications seem to have.

If anyone knows any working alternative, that would be greatly appreciated.

I'm looking for someone to do some programming work to share, and would be interested to learn about different approaches to commissioning and tendering of work over the internet - tapping into international networks for people programming for MaxMSP, and approaches to cooperative funding of programming projects.

The idea is to make an open source/CC version of the popular HeartMath or Wild Divine heart rate biofeedback applications - but minus the cheesy displays, and new age jargon!

Technically all these apps do is track resonance in heart rate oscilations at around 0.01Hz (6 cycles per minute), that are produced when people engage in very focussed and sustained feelings of appreciation/peacefullness. Sounds crazy - but based on my own experience with these two pieces of software - it does work!!

So the idea would be to either create a Max object that does this - and would let Max folks create emotionally mediated interactives

OR create an independent app that transmits key variables via OSC.

Its also important to able to test this signal - so some type of inverse FFT that would allow users to feed in test signals and test the responsiveness.

Because heart rate data is irregularly sampled, Lomb-type approaches are recommended. Timing accuracy is critical, so it needs to be independent of the Max scheduler?

Perhaps a much simpler approach would be to convert the heart rate data to audio signal (ULF!) then feed it into a standard FFT/fiddle object - but that means having to wait a long time to fill the sample buffer if you want to measure signals at 0.001 Hz, that's a long wait (5-10 mins).

I have a modest budget of around $500-1000 AUD.

I'd like to SHARE the completed object/abstraction with others in the interactive art/design/music community - CC, Shareware license or similar.

Do you have any medical/technical paper on this heart rate resonance ?
The 0.01Hz probably don't mean, that the heart beats 6 times per minute, does it?

The most difficult part of the programming will probably be the data interface between the hardware device (respectivly the driver/SDK) and max/msp.

Or do you plan to also make the hardware "open source" ? (like openEEG)

Of course, you can simply tape a microphone onto you chest ;)


Open Source sounds like a good way  to go. Ideally it would be separate from the actual acquisition of the heart beats, to allow for a range of heart beat sensing hardware.

Frequency Domain analysis of periodic data (non audio) seems like it could have applications beyond heart rate - I reckon there is lots of potential with gestural interaction (Wii Motes etc.) - tracking repetitive gestures like shaking, spinning, drawing shapes etc.

You could develop a whole library of objects for this fq domain stuff! to filter sensor data/realtime data feeds (pachube etc.)...

I remember a long time ago  seeing a book on golden mean, fibonaci, etc, and some investigation into fourier analysis of ballet dancing - harmonic arrangements of wave like gestures etc.

heart RATE variation is what we are measuring here, not the beats per se. This means we are measuring changes in heart RATE - speeding up and slowing down, in time with breathing etc. (hence the 6 breaths/cycles per minute).

Because we are measuring heart RATE, the accuracy of timing is critical, so you need a signal that is clean enough to give you a reliable beat. There are many ways to get this, so I figure to make it as useful as possible - to let other people sort this side of it - they just need to supply a BANG for each beat, then 'our' software measures the amount of time between each beat (known as the Inter Beat Interval or IBI for short), and an analysis of these changes in the frequency domain, resonance at 0.01 Hz and a few other variables.

I've used Vernier wireless heart rate sensors in the past, but unfortunately they use a noise filtering algorythm that effecctively quantizes/down samples the heart rate data - when you put it into Fq Domain analysis - the high fq components are very weak.

ECG/EKG is good but requires lots of prepping. The very popular and affordable Polar sensors, again, use lots of filtering to for noise reduction - so dont provide realtime data (its averaged out and resampled).

I'm planning on using Pulse Oximetry (infra red pulse plethysmograph) like what they put on your finger in hospital - not good in cold weather, but easy to connect, and provides realtime, analogue signal to work with via Phidgets USB interface. Stethoscopes are cool, but to noisey to extract reliable heart RATE data. A combination interface would be cool - but that's a separate problem!

I have a load of papers that I can share with interested people, but its not appropriate that I post them here!

I also have some code written for me that is almost complete, but the programmer is too busy to work on it any more - its written in UNIX, and uses a LOMB type analysis method, which seems the recommended way to go these days - if you are working with irregularly sampled data.


I'm starting a heart rate monitoring project for my dissertation and i'd be really interested to read the aforementioned papers. Also i'd love to hear from anyone that has got a decent heart rate signal going into Max.

'Decent heart rate signal' depends on what you what information you are looking for. Check out the collective I've uploaded to my website - it uses a basic IR plethysmograph, connected to Arduino - then FTDI > USB > Serial port in Max > then lots of signal conditioning, schmidt triggers etc. Its still far from perfect, and there are lots of tricks for building robust plethysmographs with greed and IR lights etc.

There are also HR kits available from SparkFun for listening to Polar heart rate monitors, but you wont get individual beats out of it, just average heart rate or *average* interbeat interaval in ms
http://danjuliodesigns.com/sparkfun/sparkfun.html


There is a workaround for getting a raw heart rate signal from the Sparkfun Polar Heart Rate Monitor Interface.  It's described in one of the posted comments on the Sparkfun web page for the product.  We had one in-house for testing for awhile, and the method seemed to work, but it appears to have a potential error as high as 60ms. for each interbeat interval.  Since I was planning to use it in a clinical setting, I wanted greater precision.

So, I found another way.  There is a pin on the receiver chip on that board that provides a 1ms. pulse on each heart beat.  You can hack into that, bring the signal into Max on an audio line, and process it just as you would an audio click track.

Anyone handy with electronics can simply buy the receiver chip from Sparkfun and build an interface without the more expensive board.  I've built a couple and they work well when the person being monitored is relatively motionless.  Things get a bit more complicated for both ECG and plethysmography when the person is moving.

take a look at this project if you want to implement it in java

Hi George,
Did you get anywhere with the heart rate variability on MAX? I just started out with MAX to do something similarly.
I have an arduino with an Olimex ECG board. With wristbands it measures the heartbeat now at 256 samples/second. It sends it by OSC protocoll over ethernet to my mac with MAX on it.
Since i'm just starting out with MAX i have not yet figured out how to convert these int16 numbers into a signal that i can use in fft or play back as audio. I'm longing back to Labview but that is not too good in doing audio stuff. MAX is confusing for me.
The idea is to calculate the HRV. With that i want to change strobotic lights that influence the mental state of the person supplying the heart rate. I also want to use it to generate audio to generate binaural sounds to modify the mental state.

I also have the wilddivine box but never figured out how to use it with different software.

I'm not sure what you are measuring: the pulse trace (i.e. the "ba boom" or 'whosh" rhythm)or variations in the time between pulse intervals (Heart Rate variability aka HRV) - they are very different data. 

My focus is on Heart Rate Variability - which means you need to use a Schmidt trigger to detect a reliable and accurate 'beat' for each pulse period i.e. trigger a bang , then measure time in milliseconds between bangs - this is the inter beat interval (IBI) - that the HRV pattern is calculated from.

Here's a link to the app that was developed for OSX that runs from the Terminal (runs on OSX 10.8), using LOMB method to obtain spectrum analysis:https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23285359/hrse.zip

You need to send it an OSC pulse message "/heart/pulse/1 1" and then parse the OSC incoming messages from the terminal app.
It's not a finished code yet - and there where many aspects that were left quite fuzzy i.e. I used overlapping VLF, LF and HF bands - because I wanted to catch peaks in spectrum that lay on the edges as well - which is a messy. The main thing is you can obtain a 128 member long list that provides the basic spectrum analysis.

P.S. the analysis app for terminal is located inside 'bin' folder


Hi George!
I am a big fan of your work. 
I am a doctor (also a digital artist) and I am very interested in biofeedback installations. 
I am currently designing an installation where a person is connected to a doppler device in order to capture the heart sounds. I would like to collect heart rate and HRV out of these sounds and with that data, modify video and sound. 
Could you please help me?

Hi George,

I love the sound of your project, especially as I am getting to grips with something similar using HRV data myself. I see that the app project files are no longer active, but I'd be keen to hear about how you progressed!

All the best,

Fiona

Since this morning i get an error msg everytime i try to lauch max even after restart : "Max cannot be opened because of a problem" (see screenshot)

My OS is Mojave 10.14.6 (no idea if it did some update in the night or what.

I still use 6.1 which was running fine until few days ago. (note: i need to keep using that version for some old patch & stuff, even if would maybe update soon at some point)

Hi,
by any chance, did you update iTunes because of syncing an iPhone? I have a problem with Max v7 32b, it is crashing on startup, Max 7  (stripped down 64 bit version) not. The cyc-support ist investigating this issue.

Dear Alexandre, i have the exact same problem. It happened suddenly with a max version (7.3) that i has been using moths and an OSX (10.14.6) that i haven't updated for a long time.

I'm just disappointed by the lack of submarines and personal security

OK, since I ALWAYS feel like a radio amateur (WX9T...held an Extra ticket for coming up on a couple of decades now) and I've got a composition background (otherwise there wasn't a lot of point in going to Germany some years back and studying with Stockhausen) AND I might've done one or two or way more things with varying electronic and electroacoustic systems and such in the past...oh, what the f...thirty years? I think? AAAAND also having had a look at the site for this...this...whatevertheHELLthisis...

Firstly, to do anything like what is described here, interpolating VLF signals (which is gonna be a laff-riot in any sort of developed area due to the mains frequency leakage from power systems, all sorts of RF squeeeel and bbbbbzzzzzzz from any number of electronic devices ranging from computers to LED bulbs to...well, you name it!) is going to require some sort of VLF input setup. Now, in THEORY, you can attach a very long antenna to the input of any old soundcard you have laying around (although this works better with an RF amplifier inline) and pick up a lot of...well, see above...but then you're going to have to make use of this signal-soup. Now, the site claims (I...think?) there's some sort of noise-cancellation setup in this, but, seriously...having messed about down in that part of the RF spectrum at points in my past, I just DO...NOT...SEE...how you're going to sort the various CW and FSK signals (and loads of geomagnetic noises...which, frankly, are a helluva lot more sonically interesting in of themselves) out of the wash of EM garbage that tends to swamp that frequency range 24/7/365. Especially without the assistance of an actual SDR, which I see no mentions of on the Compositor website. Odd omission, that, for a system that's so radio-dependent.

Various other things don't add up. How does 'altitude' fit into a scheme involving radio signals? Sure, at some frequencies (VHF and upwards) line-of-sight effects determine what can be received, but how, pray tell, do I use this 'altitude' control to...ah...change my present line-of-sight horizon? I think? Otherwise, not...? And how do I store 16km of coax to feed the SDR that isn't there anyway, much less get...an...antenna...up 16km...?????? WHAT!?!?!?!

Let me do some more Vicodin, and I'll get back on this...

OK...maybe that's better. Now, reading elsewhere, I see some mentions of 'kernel' architecture. I know what that is, having cut my teeth on a few versions of UNIX over the decades. Buuuuut..a 'kernel' is simply a core bit of code (hence the name; it's supposed to evoke a 'tiny bit of seed' that the processes grow out of via the code) that is small and viable to any incoming process.

Ableton Live 9.x is not what I'd call a 'kernel'. Yr.Typ. UNIX kernel is maybe some kBytes in size. Ableton Live is...is...ahhh...reallyhonkinBIG. It's not a kernel. No. NononononoNO. >THWAP< BAD programmer! NO pocky!
 
Detroit techno used organ as a primary instrument. Ah....hah. Mmmmmmmmmmmnope. I've seen quite a bit of this stuff (I even nearly got my finger broke by Carl Craig one night @ the Sardine Bar, when he and I were moving a table...TRUE STORY) and know some of the people who cook this stuff up, including Juan (of the Belleville Three that Mr. Ruslan mentions) Atkins. And what jazzed him up in that first incarnation of Cybotron was no organ. No. That first album, 'Clear', comes right out of the electronic scene in Germany, from artists such as Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk, and especially a little (HA! it's an hour long) ditty called 'E2-E4' by one Manuel Gottsching which has pretty much ZERO organ playing on it. But beside that, 


Haven't been there for a while and was amused by your post. At least you made an attempt to understand the whole thing. But now lets look closer. The VLF spectrum I refer to is a real radio spectrum, which can be captured in any audio stream. You mentioned that any sound card can pickup this spectrum, but not so many sound cards can produce teletype readable results. For this, kernel concept needed and I produced such microkernel, which is now version 8.5.6. I produced this kernel mainly during my work in telekom industry, working with routers, multiplexers etc. I really build a CLI (command line interface) network operation system on top of this with my DSP code, exported from Max 6.1 and compiled it in JUCE for Windows and Android platforms. Here is where my project at now. I am writing a Russian language documentation for this operation system to apply it as the operation system for Ethernet router. It passes the specifications for this task as it has an opportunity of supporting up to 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports and potentially could be used as a multiplexing system for SDH and PDH communications also.

You are pointing a nice question about how altitude helps to position the signal vector. If you will look closer to the Compositor 4 interface there is Constellations menu. It has 16 preset values with different RPF (Reverse Path Forwarding) vector values (in a present moment Compositor works with Euler angles Pitch, Roll and Yaw to represent RPF vector, which gives more freedom). I also must name here that DSP code for CLI OS is different from MaxMSP based RTOS, which is Compositor 9 Hypervisor named on my site is. In MaxMSP RTOS you can program very few parameters in real-time compared to CLI version. But as the name implies it happens in real-time and at 11025 Hz sample rate its hard real-time to be more specific.

I will not comment other stuff you wrote as it out of subject for me nowdays. I no more closely into techno, but more on network engineering side of things. And by the way soon all 2700 pages of CLI documentaion on my OS will be ready and I will present this project here as the successful exportcode project from GenEXPR world.

Dac, concerning your note that Ableton Live 9 has no kernel in it. You may call it whatever but any audio software has a kind of engine in it for driver management system. And in case of Ableton Live 9 32-bit it is a kernel engine, because this software supports Multicast Listener Discovery v1 and v2 protocols, which I confirmed by my MDL12 Max for Live plugin. They reworked an engine in Live 10 and because it is 64-bit only it no longer supports 32-bit MLDv2 protocol, but it still supports tunneling to a some degree, which I can confirm by working with SASER Max for Live plugin.

It looks like there is text missing from the first sentence. How '.planemap' can be used to select a plane from a given jitter matrix to then overwrite it with a given plane from another jitter matrix using '.frommatrix()' is not clear from the tutorial .

Would it be possible to find (or make) an updated version of the tutorial with the missing text or is there a succinct explanation for how a particular plane of a given matrix can be copied into particular plane of another matrix without overwriting any other planes of the matrix in MAX MSP / Jitter with javascript? Is there another tutorial on this or on using '.frommatrix()' in the MAX / Jitter documentation?

I am trying to understand part of the implementation of a particle system in 'Tutorial 46: Manipulating Matrix Data using Javascript' , however I have found that the tutorial seems to be missing text.

is there a message to poly (not poly~) with which I could change the polyphony ? in other words to change in a patch [poly 2 1] into [poly 4 1] do I have to change it manually, in edit mode or is there a message ??

if it hasnt changed with max8, all it can receive is "pitch" and "stop". but you might want to connect an attrui.

no, seems you can not - would have been very handy.... ( then it's the first time I need such a feature after... too many years of Max...)


you can write your own poly object. the original is imperfect anyway.^^


thanks
haven't thought about scripting, but, yes that's a possibility. or doing my own poly, yes

message to poly ?

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.

Get the preview version of the RNBO package (v1.2.7-eventide.0):
