I need help creating a Fibonacci generator..

Take a look at the bucket object.

Does it look like you're doing my homework?

What is the bucket object? and where/how do I find it?

Thanks

You can generate the sequence with [expr] using the closed form equation found here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_number#Closed-form_expression

As far as turning the sequence into MIDI notes.. you need to decide what the sequence represents. Practically speaking, you need to convert large Fibonacci numbers into to smaller MIDI numbers. I'm sure there are a lot of ways to do that, but the easiest is probably to use the modulo operator [%]. ex. [% 12] will divide any input by 12 and output a remainder between 0-11 (which can be used to index your notes). Same can be done with [% 128] for all MIDI notes, [% 7] for notes in a scale, etc. These numbers can then be used to trigger output of a [coll] object that has a pre-defined set of notes that correspond to each index number.

Until you sort that out, here is one way to port a math expression into Max using the [expr] object - along with an example of using [%] to get your output in the proper numerical range. Hope this helps. Good luck with your project!

Thanks a lot Metamax, much appreciated.

Any other help appreciated

"I want to: "Apply a Fibonacci generator to select a series of predefined MIDI notes." "

"Does it look like you’re doing my homework?"

Lol yes... :)

I've yet to see anyone but Metamax do my "homework".
Stop acting like you're doing my homework the rest of you and just do it already :)

See now you're trying to make me look bad.. but did you think it was a coincidence that I posted a solution that uses the closed form expression? How's that stack overflow treating you, btw? ;)
