Everyone --

Version 1.6 (Max5) of the [chuck~] Max/MSP object is available for free download:

http://music.columbia.edu/~brad/chuck~/

for Macintosh OS X (10.5/6).

The new [chuck~] object is up-to-date with the latest (v 1.2.1.3) release of the ChucK language, including the LiSa live-sampling unit generators and the unit-analysis generators in the 1.2.1.3 package.

[chuck~] imbeds the ChucK music-programming language in Max/MSP, bringing a sophisticated set of synthesis and signal-processing tools into the Max/MSP environment. [chuck~] also features an advanced timing and scheduling system in addition to a functional-style programming interface for algorithmic operations. Full source for the object and the language are also on-line.

No Windows version is available at present -- sorry!

This is a fun object -- enjoy it! For more information about ChucK, visit the ChucK web page:
