I'm working on a tree vibration installation and receiving live data from two ADXL345 accelerometers via the serial object in Max/MSP.

The data comes in as six float values per reading:

I'd like to record this data and play it back later for prototyping the sonification without needing the physical sensors connected.

1. Record and playback directly inside Max

2. Save to CSV and read it back in Max later

What would be the recommended approach for this kind of multi-channel float data? Any patches or objects you'd suggest?

I would like to join, combine, lace etc - Maybe a better way

the final result should have commas to get into spat

the goal here is group each 8 sources in different azim and dist configurations

This has been a recurring topic on the forum for years: Max doesn’t have a built-in 

! And it’s a real frustration—relying on qlist, timepoint, or dict quickly becomes a nightmare. Plus, it’s not visual at all, which is ironic for Max! We’ve all dreamed of a visual interface, something like a musical score.

A few attempts have been made using Functions, but they’re not very flexible to use.

So, the idea of using an OSC sequencer seemed like the most suitable solution. There are a few OSC sequencer apps out there but they’re often expensive, complex, or abandoned.

Ossia Score appeared to be a promising open-source option, but it's very complex and feature-rich, and its interface can be quite challenging — the learning curve is steep.

There was also the IRCAM’s OSCar/ToscA plugin for DAWs, but it doesn’t work well with the latest versions of Logic and isn’t really maintained anymore.

So, in the end, with the help of Mistral AI and Claude AI, I decided to create my own OSC sequencer tailored to my needs. I started with a Python prototype, and it worked so well (even though I’m not much of a coder…) that I continued developing it in Xcode using Swift (sorry, Windows users!).

I hope this will interest some of you… According to my goals, it’s quite comprehensive and flexible. The sequencer is multi-track. You can create different types of tracks: interpolated curves, step, message, bang, as well as a "markers" track with magnetic guides/landmarks.

It includes advanced zoom features, amplitude range settings for curve and step tracks, curve editing (linear or S-shaped/bulge interpolation), and an "autofill" function to automatically fill tracks with periodic patterns. You can select, copy/paste, and duplicate groups of points. You can review/edit points in a dedicated Point List window.

If anyone wants to test it, I’d love to hear your feedback!

I have some questions about file dependencies of buffer?

In the version 1.3.4 of RNBO, when I export patch on Raspberry the file in a buffer (@file) is always load.

Instead in the newer version 1.4.3, at the export all is fine. But after reboot the Raspberry, the buffer is empty??
