Simple Side-chain plugin example/tutorial patch

aidenfry's icon

Hello all.

My friend was telling me that there was very little online to help him build a side-chaining plug-in in max/msp/jitter. So i thought id knock one together this afternoon to explain some objects/processes and show how to make a simple side-chain plug in.

Well there is no point in wasting it, so i thought id pop it online for anyone else who is interested in this area and needs a helping hand.

Once again this is a very simple side-chain with the only control being an interval variable, which affects the precision and hence attack/release timing of the side-chain. However we encounter interesting principals such as scaling data and smoothing out fast moving data.

Any questions on the patch or any other subject please feel free.
