Hello, I'd been waiting for Novation to fix their NRPN functionality and they claim they finally did at release 2.1.  I am deeply into microtonality and would like to be able to switch tuning tables on the fly, but I cannot get it to work.  When I use the nrpnin and nrpnout objects the synth continually selects the first tuning table regardless of the value.  In this program I am reading the synth output while changing the tuning table on the synth and capturing the NRPN data it sends.  I then change the parameter value and resend the data but it just doesn't select a table other than the first one.  Please let me know if this looks right and that it should work, or what I should be sending  given that the documentation says the Peak NRPN control Number should be 25:6.

I am wondering if I can use routepass + route obejct (or something else) to parse an osc msg based on part of a string coming from python. 

I am sending from python column (name) with row (value), such as (freq_220, 023) or (dim_0, 012). I know the prefix (freq_ and dim_) but the amount of freqs or dims is dynamic.

I imagine that I can create lists based on my prefix and then parse this list based on index?

I tried to find an example in this forum to do thins, but I couldnt find anything. anyone can guide me in the right direction? also is it possible to extract the number for freq_ and send it to another object?

I'm trying to extract the first part of an OSC address using the CNMAT odot package and found a complicated solution and guess I am missing the easy one.

Example : given the OSC message "/foo/note 60", I try to get "foo", as this part of the OSC message can vary.

I thought [o.route] or something similar should have a mechanism to extract the parts of the address by an index e.g., but I don' see it.

Hence I implemented it via [o.expr.codebox] (see the attached patcher), but I think there should be an easier way to do it.

Is it possible to access data from the "Zone" window of a Sampler device ?

I would like to control samples related parameters such as "Root names", loop points, etc.

Can this parameters be automated, and accessible using the Live Object Model ?

I'm still quite new to Max, but I understand that the standard way to clear the content of a jit.gl.text object is to send it the message "text". That was working fine in Max 8, but when I open my patches in Max 9, this no longer works. Is this a bug? Or is there another method I should be using instead?

i'd like to be able to clear the dialog when the dialog has been already filled one time with a symbol/string.

If you have a dialog, then after a first bang, and if you or a random user has enter a string, i don't find the way that the dialog is prompt with a cleared field.

I think we miss a clear message here. Sending symbol " " obviously doesn't work as it opens up the dialog again

clear the 'label' attribute, using attrui

thx but that's not working. It clears the label of the dialog, which is not my need.
I need a way, in mode 0, to clear the field (as symbol) when the dialog is prompt so the field  is empty (always). As i understand, the field is only cleared when the patcher is closed. 

This is what I used in old max versions which had no attributes
 (127 = delete key)

thx @source audio - it works indeed!
 i tried also symbol " " but it gets this weird uncleared field

how to clear dialog?

I'm using alongside max patches a python code that takes data from zyntonic screen sensor into max msp. each time I press something inside the max patch it will go out from the python script so I manually need to bring it to front after pressing what I need in max.

Is there any way max will work and be display on one monitor while the python script will run on the other monitor without being interapted each time I touch the max patch?

Hey, I've been recently getting into Modalys which is created by IRCAM and it really seems quite fantastic. However, the documentation leaves quite a bit to be desired when it comes to explaning the implementation in Max. I'm interested in testing out certain aspects of a piano-like structure and in the manual there's mention of piano_soundboard.dat (now .txt in the installation I have). Seems like the only way to use this file would be read from file but how should it then be used?

Has anyone on here used Modalys and would like to share experience about it. It seems VERY unclear to me if I should do more within max with their objects or just directly code and import into max.

need-a-bit-of-help-with-modalys-and-max

I have used Modalys with Max for one (large) project, and intend to use it more. I worked by using their objects in Max exclusively. I learned by reading the documentation and from the Moalys overview/tutorial in the Forum Max Apps. Now they also have help files for their Max objects. 

I've found their documentation to be rather lacking in the Max department but I guess I'll just have to fool around with it a lot more. Did you happen to use the soundboard function? 

Agreed that Modalys is an absolutely fantastic program. I really find that most of the IRCAM stuff is truly incredible. I've been using SPAT for awhile and am incredibly impressed by it. I'm thinking of perhaps getting Omax to use it with Modalys and SPAT.


I'm busy today, but then I don't mind to try and explain a bit how I understand Modalys use in Max, or discuss some questions. I haven't used the soundboard function. I have found the folks on the Modalys list quite helpful.

Edit: Omax, Modalys, and Spat sounds like a lot of fun. :-)


Hey, just : if you're going to explain anything Modalys, please make so publicly :-)


How much should I write in code and not with Max objects to be precise? 

I'm trying to get the piano soundboard with this code, but can't get it to work at all.
