Current must have libraries?
All I could find was a thread from 2007. What are the libraries for Max/MSP that are must haves today?
Hi Wackyvorlon,
This really depends a lot on what type of things you do with Max. Some essentials on my list are:
- Sarcduino (straightforward way to read all inputs on Arduino boards into max at a stable sample rate.)
- FTM. Ircam's awesome library from the iMTR group. Allows for matrix operations, named objects and variable and a lot of other goodies.
- Soundhack externals. Very cool effects that make any msp chain sound great.
- CNMAT everything. Great collection of objects, particularly useful for FFT stuff and advanced OSC routing.
- BACH. If you write score-based music this is a must have. You can explore ideas and do procedural material generation very quickly.
All best
