how do i create drum sounds on max. this is for a sequencer. (Beginner)

hello tomasgarcia.
if you want to save any settings in a max patch, like a sequence, there are a couple of options, but the easiest one is maybe the "preset" object. for a more sophisticated version have a look at the pattr-family like "pattrstorage" "autopattr" and so on..
what kind of drum sounds? Look at the tutorials for audio synthesis or use "buffer~" to load in samples..
hope that helps,
woyteg

thank you.i waned to make drum sounds from scratch.

pattr-family like "pattrstorage" "autopattr" -------unsure what this is

woyteg's saying you can use those objects to "save [your] sequence after writing it..." as you asked only on how to save things you've written, it seems implied in your question that you already have built a sequencer of some type and now only need to learn how to apply some kind of preset-saving-and-recall-system to it. thus, pattr-family is a great answer; see helpfile for the objects mentioned and also these tutorials:

found starting on this page:

as for drum sounds from scratch, you could take the basic waveform objects like cycle~, cos~, tri~, phasor~, saw~, as well as noise objects like noise~ and pink~ and apply sharp envelopes and mix and match...
you could see this for envelope generation but tweak it for short-form percussive sounds:

what you should do is try something out, then post your patch, people can help you better from there... it's not always possible for others to make the patch for you(time-constraints and all) and some don't want to share their advanced patches straight away. but sometimes you can also get lucky...
you can also search on these forums for similar topics, you'll find stuff like these:

some of those are less related to the drum 'synth' idea than others, but they all can help you by describing in a wholistic way the basic elements involved in what you're after.

anyways, hope it helps. best of luck.

mrmrshoes, those are great patches! you are no doubt a truly masterful connoisseur of synthdrums!

Hi mrmrshoes,

Is the snaredrum triangle frequencies just tweaked to taste, or do they follow some principle for snaredrum modelling?

Hia Noob4Life.

Cheers dude. I do have to say that these drum patch's are based on cool sounding examples i was pulling apart while i was trying to learn supercollider. The really hard part is getting the env's right. something that line~ will never come close to. The selection of env gen's and the curves they use is really top notch in a standard SC dist.
Flowdesigner The tri~ wave freq's are more to taste than a model. But there are based some what on a snare drum's top skin pitch dive, so to speak.
I'm working on max translation of ideas that Nick collins has made pubic, like his remix code and a basic BBcut sample cutting routine from one of his papers. I'll post them when i've got them done.
