Audio Visual Max patch

DMonsoon's icon

Hi there,

First off I'm fairly new to Max so apologies in advance for my probably amateur questions. I'm looking to create an audio visual patch where the visuals react to the music. I've been working on various tutorials and have found Ned Rush's to be really interesting in terms of creating graphics with Max, the main patch of his I have been messing with is this tutorial here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8UvVGomEx4&t=142s

I am ideally wanting to morph this patch into something like this piece of work by Alex Bennett - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lztEChsWA0k

I've attached the patch I'm working on to see if anyone would be so kind to help. I've heard that Jit.catch can be used to achieve this merging of visual and audio but I can't seem to work out where to plug it into! the idea is to trigger different sound files with a bang, starting with organic sounds through to heavily synthesized elements.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

many thanks,

DM
