Hey All, been making patches that do audio and video all-in-one and posting vids on social networks where I get many requests for the patches... so I figured I'd at least create one of those patches to share with others and post it here for the requests 😇

-this patch currently only runs on OpenGL 2 (go into Max preferences and change the gl engine setting to 'gl2' before operating this patch)

-this patch will run by itself and unfold gradually if you just let it run for a few minutes after loadup(it will turn on the render window and the ezdac~ automatically and begin fading sounds into the mix). there is a labelled toggle which you can use to stop the automation and then control the mix yourself(there's not much to control here beyond the volume faders).

For those that just want to see what it does without having to download and run it, here's a vid:

RanDreamRen

included in the folder is also my translation of 

's eyeball shader to jit.gl.pix(found in the 'xtra' subfolder; this thing helped me learn jit.gl.pix quite a bit so i figured i'd share it in case it helps others too), this one can run on both gl2 or gl3, but looks truer to my original effort in gl2, here's a quick vid to show that one, too:

the docs and articles made right here by cycling74! :D

there are so many others i'm forgetting, join the groups on Slack, Discord, Facebook, etc. and you'll find everything you ever need.

So much work. Looks and sounds superb. Thanks for sharing and giving us an insight into how things work.

my pleasure, Miles! 🤗 Thanks for checking it out 🍻

For some reason, the audio seems stuttered on my laptop (Macbook 2019)...

hmmm... sorry to hear, i probably should've put the audio stuff into poly~ voices, but these all-in-one patches are more like pandemic/socialIsolation-inspired improvisational efforts these days 😅...

in 'Audio Options' window, try with a lower sampling-rate(44.1), increase sigvs size to 256 or 512, and try without 'overdrive' or 'in audio interrupt'. 

let me know if any of that improves it, i tried it again just now on my macbook from 2015 and it doesn't seem to give me any probs(but the audio cpu-usage is more than usual because of the MC objects), here's an image of my audio options in case it helps:

Definitely the Vector size that was too small.

Thanks and congrats again. This is super inspiring.

I'll take a look, but would be useful to know if you are able to diagnose which element of the patch is not functioning with gl3 engine?

it seems to be my choice of blend modes(and i notice after taking the screenshot above, those same blend modes also behave differently on gl3/mac than they do on gl3/windows... that screenshot is on a mac and it seems to draw more responsively: pixels don't blend properly but they at least disappear after awhile)...

the problem on windows/gl3 makes it so that pixels get stuck on the screen, gradually filling up the screen with a blood-stain-looking smear of pixels that blocks sight of anything else(i can't make them go away without re-instantiating jit.world entirely, or restarting the patch). one could probably make it work by choosing different blend modes(in my patch i'm using the 2-digit numbered modes, not the named ones), but i haven't been able to pinpoint which blend-mode combos give me the problem and which would provide a fix that achieves the same look as gl2, so i hope at least this much info. can help.

@Yot Magnet
glad to hear you got it working, cheers!
