mubu catart M4L

James Kogane

Hi--planning on getting the IRCAM Skatart but trying to use process of porting the max catart into M4L as a learning opportunity and having issues w/ a floating window for the imubu container. Sorry the device doesn't really have a gui right now--just trying to get things working. So for the time being in order to load a folder and have a full analysis take place you need to 1: readfolder and the 2: readappend a file from that folder (this is something I'll sort out on a different thread), and then 3: hit open to open the imubu container. The problem is that once I move the cursor over the container the window disappears and i get an error in the console saying that imubu doesn't take int.

Not sure how to fix this so any help would be appreciated!

ok did away w/ extra stuff so here's a more condensed version and now i can hover over the imubu but i don't get any sound:

getting this error in the console:

mubu.concat~: cannot connect to audio track 'audio' of MuBu container 'corpus'
mubu.concat~: cannot connect to marker track 'descr' of MuBu container 'corpus'

Hi James,
have a look at the catart-mubu project, which explains in step-by-step tutorials how to build/adapt your own catart.

Especially, you need to use imubu's mouse output to drive the knn selection. And don't worry about the errors when the data tracks are not there yet (there might be some config messages that need to be delayed, but it is a minor issue).

Tell us how you progress, best.

is it just plugging directly from the mouse output to the knn input?

or using some kind of descriptor?

this is treated in `catart-mubu-tutorial 1a selection.maxpat` and must have been in the original patch. The mouse coordinates go into a `select` message.
