Just updated to Sequoia 15.6.1 yesterday and now Max won't open. Have tried uninstalling, deleting the files in Application Support, and installing again with no luck. It's strange as it opens on a separate user on my Mac but not my main one.  Have also deleted ~/Library/Preferences/com.cycling74.Max.plist, and still not working.

I try to control an ethernet relay board with some http commands.

It does work fine in Max with the help of [maxurl]  but 

 as a live device (Live12, Max8.6 under macOS13, 14).

In Live [maxurl] behaves erratically and crashes sooner or later (sometimes when quitting Live).

I built a workaround, sending TCP commands (thanks to [sadam.tcpClient]) but I'd prefer not to rely on an external.

 I'm a beginner, but for a university exam I'd like to create a patch that can capture a live scream from a person and convert it into data that can be sent to TouchDesigner. Obviously, I'd like the sound to be cleaned up so that only the scream is captured and not other sounds like voices or footsteps. I've been going crazy for days because I've watched tutorial after tutorial, but they all use audio and not an ezadc (microphone). So far, I've only managed to connect the ezadc with meter and number, but I don't know how to proceed. My instructor recommended zmap, but I have no idea how to implement a patch like this.

The live.scope object set to update interval 0.01 is causing an extremely sloppy audio timing despite the settings seen in the screenshots below. 

In order to get the timing correct, I need to set my Signal Vector Size to 1 sample. Nothing else will cut it on the audio settings side.

To fix it on the live.scope side instead, set its interval to values 1 and larger.

Not sure if this is a bug per se, but it sure is able to mess with the users and cause some painful debugging moments in complex patches.

I would like to know how I am able to send textures 2x movie and 2x cam feeds to a single gridshape.

I can see in the tutorial that you can have two textures working fine.  When I try create a third and follow the same naming technique it does not work?

Has anyone ever taken a an open source VST and translated the C++ code to gen~ codebox then ported it to Daisy? My dream is to take the SmartElectronix Dfx Vst Scrubby and make a Eurorack or pedal version of it. I feel like this might be a good project for hire for someone with better programming skills, like maybe a Fiverr freelancer or something. 

Or maybe there's some AI system out there that can learn gen~ codebox and help me translate the differences from C++? Wonder if anyone here could help guide me in the right direction to realize this one.

I'm looking to convert between HSL and RGB, 3 floats in the range 0.,1. This is going to be inside a patcher which I am going to have multiple copies of using [poly~], so I'd like to keep it as tight as possible.

I was a bit surprised that I couldn't find a built-in object to do this, but it seems like I have a few options:

1. Implement using [expr] and consume via [bpatcher]. Optionally use a [swatch] to do HSL to RGB and get the saturation from RGB.

2. Implement in Javascript in a [js] object

3. Convert to a 1x1x3 matrix and use [jit.rgb2hsl] / [jit.hsl2rgb]

#1 seems easiest, but I have a feeling #3 is more efficient. #2 just seems like a bad idea, if there are going to be a few dozen copies of it. (I'm still on Max 5 and the old JS for now.)

I am trying to get into RNBO Script, and trying to find a code replacement for 

. I found I can do multidimensional arrays 

  with fixed arrays, so that’s basically the thing I did with [

 10 10] before. I have some working knowledge in JS but no experience in c++ so I am struggling on the syntax

@state myarray = new FixedIntArray(10,10);

myarray[0,0] =[10,10];  It gives no errors, so that’s probably right too

But writing out1= myarray[0,0]; doesn’t work.

Can someone post a little example to set and retrieve rows of an 2d array?

I want to store midi chords and address them with a single number [row] and get them as a list back so a typical Coll task

It currently has one external (chuck~) with the following features:

- Generate and process audio via an embedded chuck engine by running chuck files with `global` parameters adjusted and controlled in realtime via Max messages.

- Layer sounds by running multiple chuck files concurrently.

- Add and remove audio and audio processes on the fly via Max messages.
