Tips for a dude getting started with max
Hi! I'm just getting into max and I'm working on a project involving lots of elements that continuously change color. I was got the following little patch working to have an LED element cycle through colors.
Here the code:
Within the sub-patch I have separate counters going up and down, generating 4 floating variables that are combined into a single message that is sent to the oncolor attribute of the LED. I was looking at other functions that created sine waves but none really did the trick. Although, I'm sure this could be done a lot more efficiently and I would appreciate any tips to get the same functionality. Thanks!
