I'm trying to perform IFFT synthesis in Max/MSP, meaning that I'd like to

feed a list of magnitudes into the ifft~ object to determine the resulting

spectrum. For example, I am using a 4096 point FFT, so let's say I have a

list of length 4096, which the index of each value corresponding to a bin

number. At 44.1kz, each bin is 5.38hz, so now lets say my list is full of

zeros except bin 100- I would like to hear a 538hz tone. (I'm taking

phases from a noise~ object as seen in the patch below)

The problem I'm having is converting my list of magnitudes into something

that the ifft~ object can read. Using sig~ seems to only spit out the

first value of my list. Basically, I need to imitate what comes out of

have a look at the 'forbidden planet' example patch (examples/fft fun) -- it does exactly what you are wanting to do
