I'm working on a patch with some node.js scripts but as the project will grow quickly I would prefer to store those scripts in a separate subfolder. Thats a thing I was used to do a lot for other subdatas like images, json, txt files for qlist and coll.

The problem, as I want my project to be portable without using a standalone, is that those files need either to be in the search path or called explicitely.  I usually managed to do that by calling a loadmess path to a thispatcher then append to filepath search 0...

...but node.js doesn't seems to like this way as it instanciate before the loadmess is called and there is no method to my knowledge to load/reload/change the script file after the instanciation.

So any solution would be welcome but something better actually come in mind... and I would like Cycling team feedback about why it hasn't been done before. I would like to suggest to add an 'include patcher subfolder in searchpath' in the patcher option. Something which would act prioritary to all other loadings and which files are prioritary when there is doubles within other search path. This would save a lot of time and would be very usefull to organise project folder in a more free way. And actually I see no downside in this but perhaps I'm misleading.

I have a M4L plugin that sends a series of midi notes to the midiout component (Like that I can send midi notes to any ableton live instrument). 

Note that M4L plugins adds some groove by delaying odd notes (in milliseconds).

I would like to record within the M4L plugin the midi sequence. 

I don't want to use an external M4L plugin to record , I would like to have it inside the original plugin.

I tried to include the "seq" component withi my orginal plugin, but I loose the groove, "seq" component seems to quantize the midi sequence. 

The only idea I have would be to catch the MIDIOUT component and re insert it into the SEQ component but I don't find any way to do so.

Do you have any hint on how to record the midiout output ? 

SOLVED: within a MAX4LIVE patch, I want to connect midiout to the midiin (feedback loop)

From the beginning of my Max journey I've always been a bit frustrated by [jit.anim.drive], and more generally by the process of manually moving objects in 3D space.

A year ago I started working on something to get this task easier. I slept on it for about 9 months but got back to it recently, and I came up with two objects:

It comes in the form of a small package that you can download from its 

It is still very much a work in progress. [jit.anim.node] is so deep that there is surely many scenarios where [tc.fpcontrol] might not work as expected. Use at your own risk.

Feedbacks and suggestions more than welcome!

Do you know any tip to send a midi message just before a max for live device is turned off ? With live.thisdevice, the information comes too late for release a cc or pitchbend (ex: cc 64 0), the device is already unactive and midi messages are stopped. I have tried to listen the property is_active, max objects like freebang or closebang, nothing works.

Cycling74 added the rawbytes message to the udpsend object so now we are able to send Art-Net data with vanilla Max9 objects.

Here you can download a simple demo patcher:

MIAP v3.0.0 is out and available via the Max 8 and 9 Package Manager.

New releases can be found at the link below (.dmg is code-signed for macOS users), BUT I recommend you install it via the Package Manager directly.

https://www.zacharyseldess.com/miap/downloads.html

As usual, I have a very unpolished video walkthrough of updates on the MIAP YouTube playlist.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions/comments/suggestions. Happy mapping!
