Examples using fiddle~?

Lauren's icon

Hello all,

I am trying to learn how to use externals. I finally got the help patch for fiddle~ working on my PC running Max 7 in 32-bit.

Is there anyone who has an example of how they have applied fiddle~ in a patch? I'm just not sure what it's capable of.

Thanks!

I was just thinking that if you're running Max 7, you could run retune~ as a pitch detector in 64-bit. I like it because it gives me MIDI note numbers and cent offsets, which is often the way that I like doing !12tET stuff. Your mileage may vary.

Hi! Thanks for your help!

Isn't retune~ currently part of Max? It's not a third-party external, right?

I'm supposed to incorporate some type of external into my patch that I download elsewhere for my class. We don't have much guidance outside of that, so I'm kind of groping around in the dark on my own.

Oh, right. Sorry - I forgot that bit. I'd go with sigmund~ for third-party pitch detection.
