Changing speed of [line] ramp in real time.

Hi all, I’m trying to create a ramp using the [line] object with which I can adjust the speed to change the rate of number flow in real time. For example, here is my current patch: <code> ———-begin_max5_patcher———- 3362.3oc6csziaajD97L+JHDxdarb+tat.4PBRtr.Y2.3rXOXXXvYDsF5URT fhxwYCx+8s4CQ1ThTp3qdDGYXfwyzTjrput5p9ppen+796l8X3W82My4u67d m6t6Ou+t6RaJog6x+66ls16qOsxaW5Ga1SgqW6uId1CYWK1+qwos+C+z+3e+ tey4c+5O+y+zgKtY+5v8wq7iSuUTdqa8he54fMK+Xj+SwYuZBhM2ESkb4CNX NeN5AGW2jeRPyQNeH+F+TzxGSePyO7nBVj9tCe7yugfN7V+T3l3Mdq8yDqn. uUlWYWv+K8JXRwSQKlAaNHk3j19q6uO4GOzSL4e8OaMRHDIpMOQEcn71AAX2 WNHXi+uqEgSPfUgdKdzayx5wAby3.l4NmPIHt3AGFKAGDnSPCScWcYcO6MG+ Ga8ydGyRkrRr0tPyN+UNn5wExYvEEq.WHDZpYh3r.CUzUj4AmYsCcHCG5rPi N3NX0nJPGJN0CBUddzgaE6ltfLOtONNbSqwfLOH4dQImePCkATG68ff3vkKW 42QkQARWHyJdNQ59wX+nO5uw6wU9ltbOQOCz9sGN0rAqYszDE10dxL6XF97Z O9p0Ntic8XBtXrL1U.vBfbEaArzKtePPtyd14cmAgBvI.v3aBr1e2Nuk9mNt v6qZcAgZMxnuo4tBFFi0dGRsJDovCV0DvHmV.SvFMIPTunMkgK7KfKpqRbQ+ .dzO5f.neXAq2uN4JZP4rTlzOkCezDCKXHUdvR94cufAPjp0NddvVrPaxRaW b311alYxBkm5Rhdd6LzzxwDQO7w46v8yicFvj4wtYf45zwTS4yErwu84rXBJ pzj4XmOmETWXk297UnWAI5RIj4xp9gtPltH1UaptmKNup8PiL0VIm7G6BNXn St.7j9YrjCKnyCK3Ik6kNWtHhjWfLDW9bhfioxKMVRRlbCkj8CanTUA1PIy4 Ma5HoSIKmfO47cAXmu+6cjNwO6uwA63uZmuSGnPSokCxnYYcgqoTrlPEazgJ [...]

MillerPuckette's "Switch&Ramp" reworked in gen~

I got obsessed with figuring out MillerPuckette’s “Switch&Ramp” technique: http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/techniques/latest/book-html/node63.html ‘stead of using snapshot~(wanted to use gen~’s ‘history’ object), basically, trying to offset the phase at the point of retrigger by the absdiff between 2 samples at the boundary of abrupt change. This creates continuity in the waveform at the point of retrigger. Then ramp [...]

Max 6 SDK – indexmap.h API

Hi folks, I am coding a complex UI external using the Max 6.1.1 SDK. I am in a situation where the perfect data structure to use would be an indexmap. However, all of the function prototypes declared in indexmap.h do not seem to be exported. The API is very clear and self-explanatory in its usage, [...]

New gen~ Code Export Examples (VST and iOS)

With the release of 6.1.3, we have posted some new code export examples on the Max wiki under code export. The new examples are an iOS filter that uses the Audiobus SDK and a sample VST project for Windows and OSX. Please remember that these are sample implementations that are provided to show one possible [...]

Mac for Jitter // external graphic card needed??

Hi to everyone, I can buy a new computer “dedicated only” for Jitter!!! Time ago i tried to do audiovideo in real-time with jitter on a single mac book pro1,1 processor 2 GHz RAM 2GB ATI Radeon X1600. Using IshowU HD for recording my desktop in real-time. Happened a great disaster :) …… obviously. // [...]

Interfacing between MaxMSP and slippery chicken

The following youtube link might be of interest to fellow Lisp and algorithmic composition geeks. In the video I show how I can control my slippery chicken algorithmic composition software via an interface created in Max. The score is then generated and displayed on-thy-fly, using the musician’s favourite configuration. Communication between Max MSP and Lisp [...]

M4L Clip playing_position as phasor~

Hi, Im looking at the best way to get the current clips playing position as a phasor~, so i can then rate~ and generally manipulate the signal, to create stepped signals etc… Would I just have to re-trigger a phasor~ that’s synced to the transport or is there a better way of doing this? I [...]

message 'order 1' to zplane~ crashes max

Hi, for a one pole filter design I wanted to use the zplane~ object and sent a message ‘order 1′ to it. I read that the object only accepts orders starting from 2. When trying the ‘order 1′ message, it worked for a short time, then max crashed. Could you please update the object, that [...]

variable delay/phase shift at end of phasor~ ramp

Hello, this might be a pretty easy question, but I have searched around for quite awhile and have not been able to figure out a solution. I am trying to find a way to either produce a delay or shift in phase of a phasor~ object exactly when it ends its cycle. I would like [...]

Concave phys bodies containing small phys objects….Why do they fall through?

Hi, I’m just wondering if someone can help me with this particular jitter problem. The patch I’ve created displays a rigid sphere inside a larger (mesh) sphere. The problem I’m having is that when the size of the ‘small ball’ is decreased below about 0.8 it falls through the rigid body. <code> ———-begin_max5_patcher———- 1885.3oc0alraiaCF.9bFf4cfvm8nJRp0hbvyfdr.CP6gdnSggrDiMSjk7nk rzA8cubSNNwazJTLZPbrrj0xO+3+JI8O93GtZxhxGI0S.+J3uAWc0OXG4Jww [...]

CNMAT externals not being found

I just tried to install the CNMAT externals but Max isn’t finding the objects. It is in a file path which is in the Max5 file paths, and I have ‘subfolders’ checked. The external objects such as OSC-Route are not found. Any ideas? I’ve been using Max for a while and have never had problems [...]

manually cross-fading through a series of images – any tips?

I’m building an interactive animation in which people will use changes in their heart rate to smoothly cross-fade smoothly through a *series* of time-lapse photos. Basically I want to create a slideshow of around 20 images that can be ‘scrolled/scribbed’ through using input from a slider – that is controlled by heart rate. The fading [...]

Pitch Ratios with a Global Ratio

Hello All, I’ve had a little search but can’t come up with much from the forum. I have a few different granular polys~ which all work using a pitch ratio (0.5 = -12 semitones, 2 = +12). I want to be able to change these pitches with a global control, which also works on ratios. [...]

Matrox M9138 OpenGL not working

Hi there. It’s me again. Sorry to keep going on about this. There is a time pressure. We need this to work in two days and this is the third day. Has anyone had any experience with these graphics cards? Matrox M9138. It states on their website, that Open GL support 2.0 But all openGL [...]

UDP from Max/MSP to Processing

I’m trying to send MIDI from Max/MSP to Processing via udp. I have a number box with 0-127 values connected to udpsend. It is on the same port as the Processing patch, which uses the UDP library (http://ubaa.net/shared/processing/udp/) The problem is, at the Processing end I get this: receive: “int,i” from 127.0.0.1 on port 57041 [...]

phys.bodies inside other phys.bodies, falling through

a student of mine wants to use the jit.phys objects to place several small balls inside a hollow, transparent sphere. The small balls should roll around inside. At the moment we have a problem whereby they occasionally fall through the sphere. We are trying to understand exactly why this is happening. It doesn’t seem to [...]

Reset phasor when click is detected at signal rate

Hey all, I’ve been digging around a bit and I have a super simple question. How do I reset a phasor when a signal goes from 0. to 1.? I need the phasor to be going at a given frequency but reset intermittently by another signal. It must be done at signal rate which I [...]

popup

Hi. I was wondering – is there a way to exploit the magic behind [print @popup 1] in a custom object? And, btw, are you Cycling guys still sure that you will never provide a way to show a custom name in the “object” column of the Max window? please… fwiw, I just want the [...]

Anyone using a touchscreen laptop (ie. not a tablet) with Max?

Hi there, First time poster, I’ve been using Max for a few years now but have only recently integrated it with my live performance setup, primarily as a MIDI router for my guitar gear (usually an FCB1010 footboard and Sansamp PSA1 through an UA-25 audio interface to a Macbook Air). I’ve been thinking about getting [...]

Comment text position difference between Mac and Windows

I’m creating a set of learning objects that need to be accessible on both Mac and Windows computers. In a couple of the learning objects, I need to add emphasis to a line of text. Since you can’t change font style within a comment box, I use two different comment boxes and align them. The [...]

sine waves with envelope in poly~ clipping

Hi! I am having troubles with the poly~ object. Basically I built a sampler for sustaining sine waves. I have a cycle~ with envelope inside a poly~ and I am giving it different frequencies through a $1 message. This works fine for a few minutes then suddenly it starts clipping and sometimes even the sound [...]
