Max 5 SDK released

Nov 15 2008 | 4:10 am

Just in time for the developer workshop at IRCAM, I'm pleased to announce that we've just released the Max 5 SDK for writing external objects in C. What we've put together so far is (almost) a complete rewrite of the documentation I first wrote back in 1992 or so.

This is just the first pass, so expect a fair number of errors and incomplete information. We have much, more to document, but there should be enough text and examples to keep you busy for a while.

Visit the Cycling '74 home page and you'll find a link to the new SDK. One file covers both Mac and Windows development.

You have to use Xcode.

Many USB WebCams are not plug and play with OS X. If your webcam is on the list of cameras supported by macam (http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/), then if you install the macam software you should be able to use it with Jitter.
It looks like Logitech cameras may or may not be supported depending on the brand: http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/cameras/index.php

Unfortunately I was not able to make it to Paris. Would it be possible to post any notes or examples from the developer workshop at IRCAM?
