vStack is a looper application build 100% with Max. 

You can use your audio files or just record live audio in real-time. 

It is designed to easily sync each of the channels in various durations, based on a master metronome.

It is designed for easy control, and very easy timing syncing across all channels.

- Sync all loops to a master metronome easy.

- If your audio file or recording is not perfectly aligned or timed, set start and stop points to the channel.

- Dynamic creation of loop channels. Delete and create loop channels as you like.

- Effect sends with pre and post options, pass your audio through Overdrive, Chorus, Delay and Reverb.

- Pitch shift any channel to match your tone.

- Toggle every channel's playback by keyboard or MIDI.

117934~ is an experiment to extract new sounds from a classical upright piano via sound manipulation. The audience is presented with a composition of familiar listening habits and newly created sounds. The sound of the piano is picked up by a self-built 32-pin single-coil pick-up and two microphones. The hole audio manipulation process via granular-synthesis is done in a especially developed piece of Max software.

The work is focused on the development of this software to edit live-recorded sound material in real-time. The Max-based program allows the access of the latest 12 seconds of played audio. With the help of a gesture recognition sensor it is possible to choose any sector of this sequence and let it repeat endlessly. The chosen sector gets buffered and can be manipulated by granular-synthesis in real-time. The program flow and parametrization of the granular-synthesis is visualized by a Graphical User Interface developed in Max and is controlled by a foot-controller.

The patcher used in this project was written in Max/MSP and it transforms the magic trackpad into an instrument for controlling the looper and enabling the performer to manipulate his/her sounds live.

I performed an audiovisual piece with Modular Synth, Max (for Live), TouchOSC, and Unreal Engine 5. Thanks for watching.

 An Interesting function in this sequencer is an automatic recording. For example we can trigger and stop recording samples by a thresh-hold or by  timing (bar and beats).

Other functions: granulating, Effects, adding noises or sounds.

Using Max tools on stage: A "Sequencer".

This is a patcher for live manipulation of sound which features four effects (delay, harmoniser, granulator, spectral delay) and an interface for [pattrstorage] which is ideal for structured improvisations. Volume and panning can be controlled by using the macbook trackpad, and in this way one can control the volume and panning of more than one effects at the same time.

It features John Gibson's spectral delay and granulator.

The [pattrstorage] interface allows a user to save up to 9 different settings for all the controllable parameters and then recall smoothly between them (with a 0.5 or 25 second interpolation). If the user makes any changes to any of the parameters, this is automatically saved as "state 0", and when the next preset is recalled, [pattrstorage] interpolates between the current state and the recalled state. The user can also drag the line between numbers and interpolate by hand between the whole range of numbers.

This tool was used for the first time in a live performance with Laonikos (guitar) and Chris Bartholomew (model5 patch) in Aqueous Run, a collaboration with Angélina Jandolo at The Place, London, January 2011.

MAX/Jitter was used for all aspects of the projection system, including mapping capabilities, visual effects and audio processing.

The main patches control a live session fully automated (via MIDI ! Bloom Box started before Max4Live arrived…) and allows to define advanced sequences of clip recs and plays and stop. It's designed to be used as a Super Live Looper ! Using this the performer can focus on what he's playing and not what button he has to press.

It also handles the gig setlist and dynamically loads live sessions, and custom patches depending on the song (for Guitar wii controller or various sensors used on stage).

It also allows to control track levels and sends via a distant iPad running touch OSC. So that the mix is directly made inside the ableton live session and not on a physical console. Only two line level cables, less physical patching, less problems, more places willing to welcome the show. And he can move in the crowd for better hearing or even to grab a beer.
