I've been working these past weeks on a patch to extend our Soundcraft MTK 12 mixing table to control movements of percussive souds on a quadraphonic system.

On first tryouts, I realise the mute buttons of the mixing table don't affect any of its channels anymore, as they normally do when connected to Reaper as a soundcard for our recordings. It's probably a very basic issue but I didn't find any documentation on the subject yet.

The patch uses adc~ and dac~ with matrixes, counters and onset detection externals by Rodrigo Constanzo to (supposedly) give each channel independant movement across the speakers.

I was wondering if anyone here had to deal with mixing tables' controls on Max and could share tips and hints on this topic here.

When I want to upload an effect to mod duo and press the export code button, I just get a prompt to select the folder instead of the expected behavior of progress and completion on the watch window. From what I’ve seen in the video tutorial Gen should be finding the mod duo automatically and just pushing the code to mod duo. Does anybody know anything about this?

I want to use max to do some live signal processing.  I'd like to control it with some foot pedal devices. I don't currently have a lot of experience with footswitches and expression pedals.

I thought I'd be able to find a MIDI Expression pedal on Sweetweater easily, but it looks like all the expression pedals have a TRS cable.  There is a USB one that is much more expensive.

I was wondering, what could Max do with a TRS Expression Pedal?  Could I plug it into my audio interface and have Max read it as a signal from -1 to 1?

Even the footswitches have TRS out.    What will the output of these devices look like as a signal in Max?

Basically I'm looking for a foot button I can use to trigger taps for a tap delay.  And an expression pedal I can use to control volume.  

Since I have max skills, I'd rather build a max patch than buy a dedicated delay pedal.  I just need the appropriate hardware so I can control max with my feet on stage.

There was a great patch called aka.leapmotion. Unfortunately this doesn't work anymore - is there a new way of using the Leapmotion device ?

Sorry for posting about a side topic regarding this forum, but I have looked a bit everywhere on the internet and since Soundflower was initially developped by Cycling74, I thought that might not be totally out of place.

Also, Soundflower is a very useful audio application...

It seems impossible to install soundflower on recent Macs.

I used all the procedures recommended on the web and keep failing 

Is there an alternative to Sound Flower? It is very convenient yet.

Anyone else using Expert Sleepers to interface MAX and modular synths? I'm asking because a few friends are trying to pool our knowledge and help each other develop projects, etc.. If anyone here is interested, I'm happy to direct you our way.

I am looking for motion sensors that work with max. 

They should be more or less plug and play, work with wifi,

And I would like to connect 6 simultaneously to a computer.

I would like to share a project I am trying to bring to life which might be of interest for some of you. 

It’s a plug-and-play sensing platform for creative and audiovisual applications, with MIDI, OSC, wireless capabilities and a convenient web interface. 

So it should be a good fit with max ! You can turn movement, touch, distance, buttons or other sensors into wireless controllers quickly and reliably. 

After using arduino for years to tinker around with sensors, but encountering so many limitations and struggles, I decided to develop and share a much easier, convenient and robust solution for all. 

The project will be open source, and is currently about to launch. There will be a pre-order campaign soon on Crowd Supply (a funding platform for open source electronics). If you are interested, check out the pre-launch page and follow the project updates !

I've been playing with bluetooth speakers as a cheap way make spatialized sound in a popup installation (i.e. inexpensive, lightweight, easy to setup and teardown). I'm not too concerned about pristine sound quality, and so far the latency they introduce has not been an issue. 

What I've done so far has worked so well that I'm interested in scaling it.

I'm running into a couple issues with that.

The number of speakers I can connect seems to max out at 3. When I connect the 4th bluetooth speaker the third one disconnects. The 

 says "The official Bluetooth specifications say seven is the maximum number of Bluetooth devices that can be connected to your Mac at once. 

However, three to four devices is a practical limit, depending on the types of devices used."

Does anybody have any insight into what the limiting factor is here? Or how I could expand it? I thought maybe if I add additional Bluetooth USB dongles I might get more bandwidth, but that doesn't seem to change the behaviour. My macbook doesn't seem to be utilizing the additional Bluetooth interfaces.

 instead of the onboard bluetooth controller, but the command didn't seem to have any effect.

I'm curious if anybody has ever tried to do something like this, or has any insight into the technical limitations. I can imagine plugging in a USB hub with 6 usb bluetooth dongles attached and being able to connect 15-20 bluetooth speakers, and then creating an aggregate device so I can use Max to send sound to each of them independently.

It'd be fun to make this work with cheap bluetooth speakers instead of having to spend $$$$++ on a gigantic audio interface and wireless setup.
