Soft Bark

I've been trying to connect to a Lanbox using a version of the patch shown here: 

https://cycling74.com/tutorials/working-with-hardware-dmx-part-1

as the externals given to me with the Lanbox keep crashing. It just isn't working, it's as if the FullPacket message isn't going through. Has anyone been trying to do a similar thing recently? I'm running it in 32-bit mode, vs. 7.3.3, on El Capitan vs. 10.11.6. Have tried multiple IP addresses to sync up max and the lanbox. the lanbox works fine with the software that came with it. Lanbox aren't responding to my queries.

Any help or insights greatly appreciated!

i'm having a similar issue - did you ever get a solution?

nope - was even corresponding with Lanbox for troubleshooting, nothing worked and eventually they stopped replying - do not recommend at all for Max/MSP, shady business

The issue is that the externals for Lanbox are 32 bit. The fix for the problem is to start up Max in 32bit mode. It will work then.

I have just posted a solution if you still want one:

Thanks for this, Luke!. This looks great, but I still can't get it working with my particular setup.

Any suggestions for how the message would be structured for a 4-ch RGB lamp (which I'm assuming is RGBA) ... I've tried editing your 6-ch version, but no avail.

My example was actually only 3 channels, for some reason you need to add 6 to the number of channels you have in the message format, but my example does that for you. This is all you need to do for 4 channels:
