bang control by change in number box?

Brand new to forum- very, very novice, so thanks in advance for any patience/tolerance that happens my way. Is there an object that produces a bang when a change in number is received? I am working through the Cipriani book, and seem to recall something of the sort, but cannot locate it presently. Max is [...]

M4L MIDI Lib – Unrestricted MIDI I/O

I’ve just posted a beta version of a cross-platform MIDI library (written in Java) for unrestricted MIDI input/output in M4L devices and would appreciate some help testing it out. You can find a download link and post feedback on the library in this thread on my forum. Thanks in advance.

New XBox controller?

Anyone seen this: http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/05/hands-on-and-camera-on-with-xbox-ones-new-controller-and-kinect/ I like the bit about built in wifi. I don’t know anything about wifi direct, but I’m hoping that means you can connect to a laptop dongle free. Also touting higher resolution stuff. Could make for a pretty wicked max controller.

new m4l device: Compulsive Switcher I

The Compulsive Switcher I is a Max for Live device wich switches the incoming audio on and off, periodically. Each segment is filtered and panned and, since the switching happens at audio rate it can create some interesting effects. Download it here http://www.amazingnoises.com/am/?p=185 (And, if you missed them, check the other devices at http://www.amazingnoises.com)
