I've build a simple visual aid with an lcd to set the position of my channels with ambiencode~ from ICST, but i can't find out how to match their coordinate system where full left, f.e, is -90 and full right is 90 degrees (as shown in the picture in the patch).

Could someone help me a little bit with simple math trick ?

Here's the patch. Double-click in the [draw_tool] subpatch to find the cartopol thing.

Put a swap object between your pack and cartopol objects. See below.

The 'ambimonitor' that works in Max4 is awesome. Is there a reason you have to do it in Max5?

@dodgeroo : ambimonitor is an ui object that has to be re-wrote with the new api.

open the patch I posted.  you need one before cartopol.


but there are now beta releases that are mostly complete:

@mzed, thank you a lot. Sorry i thought you just quote my patch (still kinda confused reading posts since list died). It works perfectly

ambimonitor is out in beta, but not ambiencode...

I felt free to further modify your draw_tool to draw_tool_waj.

So it works for me.

I also have my own color palette.
I can send it to you by private mail.
