My department kindly let me borrow their Digi002 rack and now I am going to play some surround stuff in Max/MSP.

I know how to setting multi channel in I/O mapping. I also know how to assign multi channel by using "dac~ 1 2 3 4 ...."...but now I am stock in making controller knob (or controller panel) like what we usually see in ProTools, Logic Pro and Cubase so that I can really control or remote sound position.

Digi002 has 16 output channels, I think I can make at least 8 output group for surround output. I think and think and think....I just don't have any idea. I think maybe it is not easy to make a panel in Max so maybe just using knob or slider.....but I still don't have any idea how to precisely control sound's direction between 16 channels. Can somebody help me out here or give me a hint.

thank you so much, I am very appreciate any advice.

just want to say something here. I know VBAP can do surround. But my point is what is the best way to create more user friendly surround sound panel so that audience can easily understand sound panning?

VBAP may have been suggested because there is a lot to getting the

proportions/levels etc. to getting a nice spatialized sound. Here is a link

to a very nice library, which also has its own GUI, that will do all you ask

and much more. You can use an object like "hi" if you want to hook up a

joystick or something like that. Search this list if you have any more

questions, as there is a huge wealth of information about this stuff.

You can try holospat objects (panpot and multiouts~)

I created some wrappers around VBAP in the CNMAT Max/MSP/Jitter Depot.

I'd use a multislider for all 8 channels, or 16 if you go that route. Presets and pattr work well for this. The slider value list (probably 0 to 127) will set the real audio-control elements (gainfaders~) which can be hidden. You can also have a separate matrixctrl to turn the channels on and off. Don't use a gate~ as you'll get clicks, rather set gainfader~ volume to 0 then set to previous level -- like a mute. The interpolation time in the gainfader~ will prevent clicks, set it to somewhere between 10 and 50 ms, or longer if you want more fade time.

The trick is mapping the linear values of the sliders (or knobs or faders or whatever you use) to the right logarithmic values for the audio, I messed with this a lot and wound up using a table lookup. So, 128 values that map on a curve that sounds right. This was just for panning L and R, so this application will probably need a bit more fiddling...

VBAP doesn't do any bass management. You could do that yourself, and pan in a 7.0 setting, though.

Those objects are unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you teaching Max/MSP? I want to be your student. I am serious. Please let me know how to apply or how to attend the class? I am in Colorado Denver right now but I will move to San Francisco next month.

I've been teaching some of the CNMAT summer workshops for a while:

However, my gig is up at the end of this school year. It looks like this Bay Area Computer Music Technology Group might get active...

Hi I am sorry for that question. Now I figure what is 7 settings. Pretty user friendly interface. You are the man.

Hi,

Thanks. Please send me the whole js file. Thank you so much.
xlight63@hotmail.com

Actually, I have one thing to ask. How come everytime I open your patch and there is always a VBAP help file jump out and ask me to test my speaker first. I have already test the speaker and put the dealy time in the ls file. If I ignore that file and run your patch, Max window will have the error message "please test speaker first"......it kind of annoying. Did I do something wrong?

Perhaps you have IRCAM's VBAP from Spat, and not VIlle Pulkki's from here:

http://acoustics.hut.fi/~ville/software/MAX_MSP/

Nothing in the panhandler module generates that message, so it must be something else.

The link you gave me seems not working. I can not link to anything. Oh, by the way, thanks for the js file. I just want to make sure that where should I put this file? should I change the name of file?

has some good spatialization tools, including some Trajectory tools, that, when used in conjunction with vbap and cartopol, can make lots of fun with many speakers!

Yes CICM is very cool. I downloaded their objects and tired it and it is awesome. I used one of their example patch for part of my project. It just I don't know why if I just copy-past from the example patch to my patch, it doesn't work very well. I end of using the example patch as bpatch. Do you have this problem?

Replace the old speaker_placement.js with the one I sent.

Hi, i have recently just finished a surround sound mixer, made in max/msp. Instead of using pots etc to control the sound and where it is in the field i have faders for each speaker. There are 5 stems for a song, or drop boxes to put in your own stems or parts. So you can slide up each fader for each stem on each speaker. This makes learning how 5.1 mixing works easy as it is more like a normal mixing desk with faders. It also has dynamics processing for each fader and a recording facility. Attached is the patch if you would like to try it out.
