OK I'm kind of slow tonight, and can't figure this out.  As part of a bigger patch, I generate some numbers which represent ASCII characters, and which I aggregate into a list to define a longer string.  That string can sometimes can have multiple space characters (ascii 32) in a row, between words.  I'd like to preserve those spaces, and display everything in a textedit.  I can't seem to do it, without having to have quotes displayed around the entire string, as the patch below shows.  How to fix?

Is it possible to hide the Menu and Toolbar in Windows?

does not work. Crtl+8 of course works but I want to start the patch without it.
I miss the runtime for stuff like that!

Bit of an odd question really but I've been using Max for about 2.5 years now. I've written a huge app that does loads of MIDI processing and a bit of innovative graphics in its interface window (making a clock face out of Dial objects!) but I'm keen to spread my wings a bit more now that the app is finished and working.

So what other programming tools/languages do any of you use for building stuff to use within the Max environment? JavaScript? Python? C++?  Etc. For eample, how easy is it to write code for an external Max object in a different language?

And has anybody ever incorporated Max code into an external programming environment (like Visual Studio) to build a fully linked and compiled application written in C++, for example?

I'm trying to simulate a capacitor in gen for an envelope design i'm working on. 

The basic idea is that you send a number to some sort of counter, as a 1 sample impulse. 

The counter should then count down from whatever number that is until it reaches zero, where it will rest until it receives another number input.

The kicker is that if the counter receives the input of additional numbers before it has finished counting down to zero, it should add those numbers to the remaining total and proceed to count down from the new total, until it reaches zero.

I hope that makes sense, if anyone could help me, it would be much appreciated. My patch it getting messy as i'm getting frustrated.


Hi there,

The lesson is to have a break whenever i'm getting frustrated.

I know this is pretty old but I'm new to gen~. How would you create the inverse of the discharge cycle? For example using a toggle. Toggle on charges the capacitor and toggle off discharges?

Your solution seems really slick and if I could just wrap my head around gen~ I think it'd solve a specific use case I'm having.

A complete M4L blockhead here, hi. I have this audio to midi in realtime -plugin, which works almost perfectly, but it won't play two times the same note without my playing another note in between. So my guess is that I'd need to insert some sort of note-off behavior / note repeat rule / re-triggering box somewhere in MaxForLive editing tree. I have Ableton 9 / Max 7. This is the only plugin that I have been able to (almost) use. I'm an acoustic musician and need this for live performances.

I've tried contacting the developer, but since it's a free plugin, seems like he doesn't (understandably) wish to waste his time on it. Looks like I'm on my own. As far as I can understand, it's a very cleverly made plugin, except for this bug. So I thought maybe it's ok to ask here?

Like I said, I know nnnothing. Yet I feel that a more experienced brain would solve this in a minute. Anyone feeling like helping me out?

hi,
i want to find the highest, say, n peaks from a jit.matrix with magnitude values from a pfft~. is the zsa.freqpeak object from maxobjects.com currently the only freely available option for this? or is there something built into a max/msp/jiter object somewhere which i could use to achieve this? were i to do this myself would javascript be the best option to do this? what if i want to find the peaks from a single fft frame in real time, would java script be too slow for this?
cheers,,

Something like this, using [mxj buf.Op] might help.

hi zachary,
thanks for your response. this example may take me some days to digest, but thanks for more thought!


hi,
not that anyones interested but i came up with this solution, basically a column-wise traversal of the matrix, sorting each column and getting the highest n values from that. hopefully i can now do math operations on the highest values in the time i need. cheers,,


so, i noticed that when the values are all the same, [zl sort] still sorts them, always in the same way. why is this?


An easy way to reorder the peaks is to separate frequencies from the amplitude coming from zsa.freqpeak~ (using zl delace). Then you can simply sort the amplitudes (zl sort) and use the right outlet of zl sort in combination with zl lookup to reorder the frequency properly.


hi,
after reading the papers on your website i see that zsa.freqpeak~ implements the peak detection algorithm i was looking for, so it's just a matter of me to incorporate it into my little patch. cheers,,


Just out of curiosity, does the minimum number of peaks in the freqpeak object is always 4?

I recently studied an episode of Federico's tutorial and it was fantastic!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZvcDGbEbZk 

I made a little modification to his patch by replacing jit.bfg with jit.gl.model so that I could transform the 3D model into a point cloud.

But the result is not very satisfactory, because the point cloud splits into some rectangles according to the position of the vertices of the 3D model.

I want to make the point cloud shape smoother, and I have tried many methods without getting the desired result. Do you have any good suggestions?

In the Max MSP synthesis tutorials, there are visual screenshots of a [cycle~] object output going into a [plot~]. I know you can use plot~ as a sort of oscilloscope, but in the tutorial it looks like it did a plot of a slice of time from audio rate data, similar to how the SuperCollider's .plot works, where you enter a period of time you want to capture and it plots the result after that time has passed. Is this possible to do within Max?
