using a Torso T1 Algorithmic Sequencer with max
Hi I been learning MAX on and of fo years but my math is bad and it takes time so i g back to my hardware synths and a bit of patching in Reaktor.
now i bought a Torso T1, a 16 channel Algorithmic Sequencer that can do all i want sequensing wise. Random everything from time sig. to CC,0-127.
I found this nine years old tool for midi learning in MAX https://github.com/johnnyturpin/max-midi-learn?search=1
Is this something I can be helped with?
I´m thinking making patch with a bunch of voices and let T1 do the trigging and modulation.
Thanks!
I am very new to all this as well & happen to be using my Torso T-1 to modulate parameters within MAX.
My setup uses a Roland Um-One USB midi cable. You can connect from the TRS Midi Out from the Torso to a computers USB. I found this cable to be solid for a 1:1 Torso to Mac setup.
Within MAX make sure you have clicked on the options tab and MIDI & then selected the correct MIDI inputs and outputs to your personal setup.
The midin object within your locked patch will need to be double clicked on to reveal a drop down menu & enable selection of the Um-One USB cable / Torso T-1.
Once this has been set-up use the scale object to ensure input values of CC # 0-127 are converted to output values relevant to the chosen modulation source (for example if a dial value ranges from 0 to 1.0 that you intend to modulate then you will need to ensure the MIDI 0-127 range scales to output 0 - 1). There are 4 arguments needed for the scale object & with the above example would be: low input value (0), High input value (127), low output value (0.) & High output value (1.).
Entered as: 0 127 0. 1.
There is a small icon at the bottom of the patching window that looks like a mini keyboard. Click on this icon. Parts of your patch that can learn MIDI will highlight. Click on one of them and it will listen to the next output signal from your Torso (move one of the CC Output encoders), once it hears that output it is learned unless you overwrite it with another learn procedure.
Remember to select the correct track type on your torso, which has 3 track types / modes (Step, FX & MIDI).
