Peter Ostry

When I set the first in/out for example to 0 0 0.5 I get signals on all 6 matrix outputs. They have individual levels (according to inputs) and the gain value of the first channel acts as global gain for all of them. Strange: the printout of matrix~ is ok, it reports only the first channel as open. But output is on all channels. Furthermore: setting any other input than the first one has no effect.

mc.matrix~ does not work here.

Max 8.0.0 (bcdbf35) (64-bit mac)

6 inputs and 6 outputs:

...in early stages of the patch, i tested with your exact matrix~ arguments: 

and your exact message: "0 0 0.5" and it all worked fine.

....maybe if you post your patch, we could isolate the issue better between both our efforts(?).

I am on the same version of Max, but MacOSX 10.13.6 here.

(and now i've fallen deep into the rabbit hole noticing how there's voice-allocation built in to determine how to mixdown in various ways and there's so much to try out like mc.voiceallocator~, mc.target, mc.pack/unpack~, etc. ...gonna need to buy me a surround-sound system 🙈)

and also, as "MC Wrappin Raja" i feel it's my duty every now and then to drop some rhymes 🙊 ...been awhile, gettin' about that time again...

It's a glitch in the matrix, watch Keanu twerk!

Yo! this mc.matrix~ shit: just ain't gonna work!

I'mma try this out, straight up patchin' like a Boss G

Don't be tryna front.. on my homie Peter Os-try!

I just tried it out, and it seems to work fine

And the CPU don't sweat, stays as cheap as a 5-and-dime

Meanwhile Peter's stumped, on channel number one

mc.matrix~ dances krump, with a winky face and tongue

"it's being such a jerk when mc.matrix~ does not work!"

Seems to work for me here.
I created a test patch:

Yesterday I tried a couple of times, always created new objects, then restarted Max and the computer but nothing helped. Left the patch open overnight, today made again an mc.matrix and it worked right away. Now I remember that, yesterday, [mc.matrix 6 6] had the same 7 outputs as the standard matrix. Today it has only 2 outputs as expected. Maybe it was just some glitch that will not be seen again.

confirming the bug, you saved me a lot of cables and meters ;-)

In the morning when I rised
I tried again and was surprised
In a very similar patch
mc.matrix~
Worked from scratch

 see the bug early on when first creating the patch, but then it never appeared again(i'm not sure what i did....i either 'clear'ed the connection of all routing in the matrix~ and then rerouted individual channels afterwards, or i might have used the multislider thing in my patch to reset the connections individually, after which everything continued to work as expected without fail again).... so the bug might still be there, but there is definitely a workaround that seems to last once the patch is twiddled to work a bit(whenever i try my test-patch posted above, it never gives me the bug as it is now))

Haha, nice! Glad to hear it worked :)

Cheers! 


I have the same problem here with a m4l device. I get inconsistent results. I merged some objects in a patcher(comb filter patcher) that were leading in one of the inputs of mc.matrix~ and suddenly all the output channels were the same . The weird thing is that is working fine when the device is in edit mode but when i close the max window and try to use it inside ableton I get only one channel duplicated 20 times!

mac os --> 10.14
max --> 8.0.0


I believe that the mc.matrix~ issue should be fixed in the next update.

 to do with that (and where is he anyway)

what has twerk to do with that (and where is he anyway)

haHA! I just thought the image of Keanu twerking would be a nice, random addition there to assist the rhyme :)

and of all the questions that come up about those lyrics, 

I would think you'd probably ask the following:

"Raja, if you were really a 'Boss Gangster' i doubt you'd spend your time patching, surely as a Boss you would have other people performing the patchings for you?.... and who are you telling not to front? mc.matrix~? or the people reading this? and what will happen if I DO decide to "front" on your so-called, "homie" Peter, and that brings up 

I don't think you and Peter have ever met at all, so how can you call him your 'homie' in the first place?! Do you just go everywhere thinking anyone will be your 'homie'? I don't think that's how it works. I think you need to establish a bit of a comfort zone with the person first(even though, on these forums, respecting comfort zones has not exactly been your 'forté', *nervous laughter* 😅)... 

This is just my opinion, ..just my.. how you say.... 'dollar and ten cents' ;)

who? Keanu? he's doing fine, probably somewhere with Winona Ryder eating chocolates in a hotel room dreading the malaise together they will both feel when they attend the celebrity-Gala luncheon they must chauffeur all the way across town for tomorrow morning and wondering if he could somehow create another "sad keanu" picture/meme that didn't look so sad:

 And Ben Bracken just said they'll have that mc.matrix~ bug fixed

 at first, i didn't realize who you meant, but now i do: Shawn! 🙌 he's here in the bay area i believe, i went to him to master three projects in the past 5 years or so, he does VERY good work:

check out his selected projects page in particular, there are so many albums people have heard, probably didn't realize were mastered by him:
