I’m fairly new to Max and trying to set up an audiovisual installation that I actually need to have running by this Saturday, so I’m a bit pressed for time. I’ve been trying to figure things out on my own but keep running into issues, so I thought I’d ask here.

What I’m trying to do is pretty straightforward in theory: I need to play back one stereo audio file and two separate video files at the same time, with each video going to its own projector. All three files are the same length (around 30min and heavy).

I’m on a MacBook Pro M3 Max running the latest version of Max 9. I’ve tried a few different approaches already but nothing has worked reliably so far – either the video routing to two separate displays doesn’t behave the way I expect, or things just start getting messy over time.

I guess my main questions are: what’s the best way to send two independent video streams to two projectors – two 

 objects, two jit.window objects, something else entirely? Is 

 the right choice for playing back long video over that long a duration, or is there something better suited? And are there any general tips for keeping things stable over 8 hours – things like file formats, settings, .... ?

Any advice would be hugely appreciated! Thank you!

As part of my final project for university, I'm developing a musical synth in which the input is only dynamic image (video). You can load videos, process them, and it triggers sound events as well as it functions as an oscillator.

To transform the video into a VCO, I'm using jit.peek and having it run through all coordinates of a frame (320x240 at 30fps means 76,800 samples per 33.3... ms. Because this drastically fails the nyquist frequency at any sample rate below 4,608,000Hz, I'll have to lower the quality of the video drastically to a point where I lose a lot of details, unfortunately). Since jit.peek functions for each plane individually, it creates a sort of triple oscillator, which each plane functioning independently.

I can also use motion detection as sort of a "VCA", with the amount of difference between two frames dictating the volume.

Now I'm looking for a way to implement a filter, and, for that, I would like to use the fft of an image (it is bidimensional so it would be cool to choose which dimension I want to serve as a filter or maybe the combination of both, or maybe one dimensions for one plane, the other for another plane, and the combination for the third plane. idk, i just wanna make sure this is possible) and have it shape the spectrum of the signal that the video itself creates.

This way, the video would be a VCO, VCA and VCF on its own.

The documentation for jit.fft only shows me that it does the transform and then does the inverse. I'm also struggling to find useful exercises with this object and ways to join both the video fft with an audio fft.

If anyone out there can help with this, I would be very grateful!

I am having trouble getting a physarum simulation in Max up and running. This is my first attempt to go into jitter and I have managed to get the fundamentals of the sim up and running but: 

No I want to integrate it in a interactive context and it seems to be the case that the buffer of the four pix objects that i have feeding each other are actually different than the four textures that they write to. But if I specify their output texture with the @out_texture attribute the objects break and cannot be recovered. 

What I would like to happen e.g. is: The world is running => I send new noise to the textures => It resets the sim.

But: On loading the patch takes it's texture dimensions from the initalizing noise, but as soon as the world is rendering nothing that gets sent to the textures (noises or blacks) will reach the feedback circuit.

Hi all! I'm currently working on a new package for MaxJitter, called AV Toolbox. The toolbox is a collection of abstractions that I've been using personally for my audiovisual works, and I figured it could be nice to gather those in one package with some proper documentation for others to make use of as well. The latest version of the package is available on github:

The package contains many different types of objects, ranging from signal analysis objects (envelope followers, schmitt trigger, spectrogram) that can be used to control jitter objects, to timeline objects (triggers, automation function) that emit events at specified times in min:sec:ms synced to global transport, to jitter extensions (like objects that initialize with preset attributes for world, node, videoplane, camera and more).

Please find a complete list of the objects in the launch patcher under 

after installing and restarting Max. There is also an extensive example patcher and a link to more extras that are currently not included but available via different github repositories.

💬 Feedback and 🐛 bug-reports are very welcome, please create an issue for them on github or write a comment below.

 is a Jitter external for Max that generates QR codes as matrices. Delivered as a package with help + ref.

It converts a text string into a single-plane char Jitter matrix, where white pixels represent active QR modules and black pixels represent inactive ones.

https://github.com/gluon/jit.void.qrcode/releases

Based on the Nayuki QR Code generator (MIT License).

The object is designed to be simple, lightweight, and easy to integrate into Jitter-based workflows.

It supports adjustable output size and error correction levels, and works on macOS only (silicon + intel). Win maybe soon.
