I'm just wondering if MaxMSP is the best program to use for a set design that needs to incorporate multiple display screens becoming active at different times. Each screen would ideally be playing different video content.

Max can do this, as well as other softwares such as Vdmx, Touchdesigner...

Don't know if it's "the best". If you don't know Max, it's going to take some time to learn it and understand how to do this. Probably look into VJ softwares, they're usually pretty straightforward.

Good luck! 


You could also look at QLab for this - it can do what you're describing with a minimal amount of programming.

Hi. As this is quite a late response, for future reference, vMix works quite well for this application. I used it quite successfully a couple years ago for three screens displaying two live sources mixed with video and static overlays. While Max certainly has a much greater potential, it also certainly would require much more work to configure and probably run.
