I want to create Jitter projects with face detection of a webcam stream in "realtime" at high resolution.

In one patch for example i am using OpenCV - cv.jit objects to cut out the face from the webcam stream: 

CutOutFace.maxpat

but it seems to be too slow i only get a framefrate about 3 fps and the patch responds delayed. 

I also have detected the jweb-mediapipe for example: 

https://github.com/robtherich/jweb-mediapipe

 This option has a great performance, high resolution, and very good face-landmarkers... 

But as far as i understand i am not able to feed the jweb object with a jitter matrix from my webcam or get a jitter matrix out of the jweb object. 

I would need the original webcam stream and the detected facemesh, face-landmarker data to work with in my jitter patches.

Is there a possibility to do that in with the jweb-mediapipe?

Are there alternative solutions which deal with high quality and good performance face detection that could be used inside jitter?

I only see the ability to specify notes with a velocity expression.  All notes live within a "notes" array and it seems to me there's gotta be a separate "cc" array to express such things as pitch bend, slide, etc.   I can't find reference docs for the contents of the dict passed in and out of live.miditool.[in/out].

I did the FM synth tutorial of max and everything is clear except the argument in the *~ object that multiply the Carrier frequency and Harmonicity, and then Harmonicity and Modulation index (highlited in the screenshoot). They both have a "0" on it, and I don´t understand why. My logic said that this number will multiply the incoming signals to "0" so you would´nt hear anything, but that´s not the case.

I have been discovering M4L for a few days and my poor English absolutely does not help me advance in my search.

Until then, for a few years I worked my bass on Guitar Pro and Ableton which had the role of an instrument. Guitar Pro has a very useful asset for work, which is not found elsewhere, it is the management of the % tempo, per range of +/-5%.

To summarize: when reading the score, we select the tempo and the "-" & "+" keys on the keyboard allow you to increase or decrease the tempo in a range of 5%. There is also a drop-down menu with a certain number of % to choose from and there is also the solution to fill in the tempo we want this time in bpm.

The disadvantage is that all this is not controllable in MiDi...

The idea would therefore be to export the pieces, exercises etc... from GP to Ableton in MiDi and use M4L to build a work tool that would respond to this:

Hoping to have aroused the curiosity of enthusiasts ready to help me in my adventure! I'm not looking for a turnkey tool but maybe ways so that I can build all this myself :)

Hi - I assume this is the same behaviour as automation in Live treats a live.button as a toggle between on and off states. On the push the same thing occurs where the button is treated as a toggle between on and off. Has anyone found a work around for this?

I'm trying to recreate the patcher below in RNBO. It's basically a drum sequencer with conditional triggering, but it uses polybuffer~ to trigger random sounds from a loaded folder of any length . I use this patch a lot, so it makes sense for me to try to send this one first to RNBO world, as I would love to have it in hardware version with Raspeberry Pi. I am a huge noob with RNBO.

I looked at the Exp Polyphony Drum Sampler here : 

https://rnbo.cycling74.com/explore/exp-polyphony-drum-sampler

 that does almost the same thing, but it seems to be setup for only six files and uses a polybuffer from the Max patcher which, if I'm not mistaking, will no be available once I export my patch to a VST or AU target for example. Is there a way to say to the export target : load a folder, and make a list with all the files paths in it, and then use those paths to dynamically change the buffers content ?

Also, I tried to export the Exp Polyphony Drum Sampler to AU in order to test it with Logic Pro but even if it's properly installed and recognized by Logic I cannot load it. Is this due to sample depencies ?

I'm having a strange issue when using Max 9.0.7 with Apple AirPods Pro (model A3048) on macOS Sequoia 15.5 / Apple M1 Pro.

System-wide audio works perfectly — YouTube, music, etc. play in stereo.

But in Max, I only hear sound in the left ear, even though gain~ / meter~ show signal on both channels.

Has anyone experienced this before? Any ideas how to fix it?

 i want to build some video/interaktive installations in max/msp/jitter. Therefore I would need some Windows machines for presentation of these installations. I would try to get some cheap Laptops because my budget is limited.. But I want to make sure, that my patches are running for sure. 

In general minimum System Requirements of Max 9 are

Which additional requirement  do i have for running Jitter in my Patches?

particle Systems, cv.jit objects, pose for interactive systems and OpenGL.. 

How do i determine the minimum of System requirements in jitter? For example wich kind of Graphics Card do I need at least? Are there inbuild graphic processors in cheap Laptops strong enough?

I am having an issue with the audio coming out of the speakers of my laptop. I already checked that the volume is on and the settings in the audio status of Max are correct. I also check the sound settings of my laptop and I believe everything is in order: max app have selected as output the speakers of the laptop, sound drivers are updated, format of output is the same as the audio status in Max (16 bit, 48000 Hz). I reset Max and my laptop several times and it doesn´t work. The objects like makenote actually make sounds I can hear in the speakers, but when is cycle~ I can´t hear anything, even when I see the sound is happening. I read the turorials in cycling website and can´t find anything I haven´t done there. What am I missing? I am using a surface laptop with Windows 11.
