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 ?

Not exactly what you’re looking for, but MIMI Glover is how I get Leap data into Max.
https://mimugloves.com/glover/

Oh - I just realized, that Glover doesn't work with Monterey - well, I think, I have to wait for an update. 

Does anyone know if Glover is compatible with the Ultraleap 3Di? I've emailed Mimu a couple of times and no reply.

you could try this: https://maxforlive.com/library/device/4455/max-4-leap. It's still available for download.

Did anyone have any luck with ultraleap 3Di?

I tried https://maxforlive.com/library/device/4455/max-4-leap - but it says, that is it no more supported - or did I misunderstand something?

Hi everybody, 
Like many, I was looking for a new version of the Aka-leap object, for using the Leapmotion in max with the Monterey OS.  All the solutions suggested in the replies don't seem to work.
Thanks
M

You should make leap-motion  work in monterey first. There are no issues with max externals. There is a workaround for leap-motion driver, you can google it at ultra leap forum.

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.

What are the chances...
I was just wondering if the Expert Sleepers ES-3 module could/would communicate with Max well.
I would love to hear what you and your friends have been toying around with.


I'm not sure anyone is using the ES-3 with MAX.  I just have been using an ES-8 for the past couple months and it has been great fun to tinker with.  I would imagine the ES-3 is similar though.

If you're interested, there's a bit of discussion starting at the Lines forum in a sub-category called 'studies'.  Join us if you'd like: http://llllllll.co/c/studies

I really feel like there have to be more people working with this combo, so I'd love to have a nexus for discussion.

Nah, the ES-3 gets along with Max just fine. There isn't a lot to tell, though; just route a signal to the dac~ output that corresponds to the correct ADAT channel on your audio interface and you're good to go.

If you want more accuracy (e.g. for consistent v/oct pitch cv across multiple outputs), you can connect an ES-3 output to a voltmeter and bias/scale your signal in Max to get to a clean 0.1 = 1vdc or whatever. The bias/scale settings will be different for each channel of the ES-3, of course. It's easy enough to put together a simple calibration routine if you're going to be doing this regularly.

If you don't have a meter or want to interface with the ES-3 via MIDI note messages, I'm sure you could also host the Silent Way plugins in Max and use SW Voice Controller's calibration scheme, but I've never tried that personally.


Anyone using the ES-3/ES-6 combo to sequence an eurorack voice with Max and bringing back the audio in ? Any help would be appreciated.

I am, mostly in the context of Live. It works great but definitely is a bit of work to get a setup that you like and understand it all. What are you stuck on? I have an Es3, 5, 8, 8cv, and 6 here, running on a Mac.

I would like to sequence a basic modular synth voice with a simple max sequencer so from what I understand I send signal to the ES-3 using dac~and I bring signal back in max using adc~but how to send CV and Gate from Max ?

Hi, you need to use the encoder object from Expert Sleepers, and you also need to figure out how you want to work with that object because it expects a number representing the state of all the gates. I made a simple object that sits in front of mine allowing me to turn on and off gates with individiual 1/0 messages.  This object needs to be set to output to the dac channels that are multiplexing the gates, to this will be one pair of the set on the parent device (es-8 or 9). In the context of live, what works for me is having my sequencer on a track who's output is set to this pair (dac 9/10 in the picture below), and the gate output lives on that track. The other CV outs can be on other channels as needed and one can use send~/recieve~ or audio routing to send to them.  

I should probably make a video of this, the ones from expert sleepers aren't particularly detailed.

Here's my encoder containing object, the es5encoder~ is the extension you need from expert sleepers.


Wait, I dont have an ES-5, does this external is compatible with ES-3 ? Yes that's pretty complicated for my noobish max level I'm quite lost and even in the many videos on the subject of integrating Max and eurorack I can't find one about using a simple max sequencer to send CV/gate to a basic eurorack synth voice... Thanks for your help.

ah, my mistake. The ES-5 is a multiplexer specifically for gates. If you have an ES3, you can use that for gates too, but you will be using up a channel for each gate, and it's not something I've done. If you have the finances to do so, I would recommend the ES-5 as the way to get gate output!

Yeah I know this is possible to send CV AND gate from the ES-3, I just don't know how to generate a gate from a max sequencer, this is driving me insane...

I haven't done this personally, but I think all you need to is send a high signal out that output for gate = on. This thread seems to conclude that setting it at 8volts should be good.

You could look at the Ableton Live CV tools device and see what they are doing (perhaps with a multimeter...)

ES-3/MOTU user here. I typically send the ES-3 my gates and modulations, reserving a few of my MOTU 8pre-ES's outputs for pitch CV as i find it slightly more accurate, but the ES-3 scales -1. - 1. perfectly to eurorack levels of -10v - 10v.  For gates, anything resembling a square wave is a gate. It could be an LFO, or just a ~sig recieving 1. and then 0. Send your ~DAC a signal at 1. and it's high (on), send 0. and it's low (off). 
Attenuate the output of your synth signal to line level and plug it into your audio interface's inputs, select the channel on ~adc and have fun!
