Completed Feedback Loop patch

Rodrigo's icon

thanks everyone that helped ,

heres the completed patch, it uses 2 externals(monoverb~, and
pit_shift~ (from percolate library),
i put an instructions jpg in there since i more or less built it for
'my eyes only'

it sounds amazing, turn the random control on, and bring the speed/%
down, and you have an evolving noisescape for hours!

if that direct link doesnt work go to :
http://www.rodrigoconstanzo.com/instruments
and scroll down to the maxMSP section

id love to hear some feedback(har har) as this is my first 'balls out' patch

pretty sweet, few things I would change
Its humongous, Id scale it down to fit on an average monitor
panning would be nice so you can get some stereo or surround
volume seems to be blasting unless I turn it to the bottom most pixel
sound quality is a bit gritty, but thats probably because of the distortion/lofi

but yeah man I think this is a bad ass noise generator,

love to see the next version if you make one

the size thing was a consideration, but i didnt initially build it for
other people to use
thats why things arent too well labeled eitehr, since i know what they are

i may incorporate panning as well, probably 2left 2right, with a
'mono' switch for simplicities sake

and the volume thing is bothersome, i was looking up how to do a
logarithmic scaling of values for the master volume, but i figure its
that loud because the signal hitting the master *~ object is super
high, so the different between 0.01 and 0.0 is still big

the grittiness is intentional, making the delay analogesque, using an
aliasy pitchshift, and degrade etc..

thanks for the suggestions,

ill probably develop it a bit more, and create a more general purpose
one thats suited to people other than me

that and i want to max the chaos out a little more (it sounded even
better when i let the overdrive~ going into higher negative numbers
(-1 to -5), but it would crash after using it for a long time, so i
gotta find the 'sweet spot' of chaos before max shuts down on me

Hey Rodrigo,

Is this feedback max patch still available on your website? I would love to see how you’ve put this together, but couldn’t find it just now.

Thanks!
