Hi,
I'm making patches from the book: Electronic Music and Sound Design - Theory and Practice with Max & MSP.

there is some patches using the object vs. random , vs. between etc..
In the max I'm using I cannot creat those objects.
Any idea why ? How I could create them ?

Thanks

They're written in Pd. Max and Pd, despite their similarities, are two entirely different programs.

I'd take a look at Holland Hopson's work, if I were you.

thanks I will take a look but still I would like to know how can I re create those objects in max ?

Well, the vs. at the beginning of the object would suggest to me that it's not a standard Pd random object - so you're going to have to do some research. If Andy Farnell's using someone else's libraries, the text should tall you that. I'd start my search for answers there.
