Hi there!

My idea for a university project is to use max to create a new form of sequencer that is 3-dimensional. By this, i mean that the sequence of events works by mapping sounds in shapes as opposed to in the traditional linear fashion. I was inspired by 'Leafcutter John's 'Nodal Rhythm' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9u2DWBXPhnA

Building on 'Leafcutter John's work, each element of the sequence (sound) would ideally be able to have on it different effects, processing and dynamics settings to create a fully adaptable, visually stimulating sequencer.

What I would like to find out is how to incorporate samplers and sequencers into the 'nodes' object and framework, and how to make it functional for creating new rhythmically based ideas.

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks,

Ivo
