The CVToolbox (manufactured by KissBox) is an hardware control module for analog synthesizers. It provides eight CV (Control Voltage) channels with 16 bits resolution to control any kind of analog synthesizer (modular or desktop). Each output can be controlled by the internal synthesizer engine, or by the kissbox.cvtoolbox external.

The kissbox.cvtoolbox external allows to control any CVToolbox output in real-time from a Max/MSP patch. For example, you can put an ~adsr object on a patch and use it to control hardware modules like VCF, VCA, etc... like if the synthesizer is a part of the patch (or like Max/MSP is a part of your synthesizer).

The external is available both for Windows and Mac OS platforms and can be used under Max5 and Max6.

Update 9/8/2013 - The Twitter examples were broken. They are fixed and have been updated to use version 1.1 of the API (oauth). The projects demonstrate 3 methods of authentication:

- the streaming API via php
- the REST API via ruby
- sending Tweets using xively.com (aka cosm/pachube) and zapier.com as intermediaries.

Also a clarification: These tools are not meant to be turnkey Max solutions to using internet API's. They are more like recipes - some with other ingredients - like php, ruby, or node running in the background as OSC servers. 

The Internet is a source of data which reflects the state of our world. Internet data can be mined, filtered, analyzed, and aggregated. It can trigger physical events. It can display the state of physical events.

These features combine to provide a valuable tool for artists. There are countless examples of data visualization, interactive media, sensor feeds, and collaborative art – which use the Internet.

Here are a few examples to help you learn how to use the Internet in your Max/MSP projects.

Superior Pattern Processing is an audiovisual space where visitors attempt to solve patterns. Based on their responses, the room changes to different videos and sounds. When enough patterns have been solved correctly or incorrectly, the room transforms to one of two states: "Wakefulness" or "The Delta Wave."

The work leaves viewers to question the "superior pattern processing" ability of humans while immersed in multiple projections, a computer network, and a clinical, cerebral soundscape emitting from a sound system placed around the perimeter of the room.

The networking capabilities of Max and Mira were critical in executing this project. Due to the large number of projectors, several computers were used and video timing was done with commands sent between several [UDPsend]/[UDPreceive] objects. Jitter's ability to alter loop points was extremely useful for figuring out the scrolling effect of the primary video where the patterns appear.

OSCseq is a basic OSC sequencer. It's a timeline tool that can record and play back any Open Sound Control message, has basic editing functionality, supports automatic OSC device discovery (Bonjour), has an unrestricted address and argument space and fully supports NTP time tags.

For an example how to use OSCseq to make compositions with Max/MSP, check out the tutorial videos at http://oscseq.com/gallery/, demo patches are available for download.

MaxComm is a free iPad app for sending OSC messages to Max over a wifi network. You can build an interface using sliders, buttons, toggles, and trackpads and then export your interface as a Max patch. You can also send multitouch data, orientation data, and motion data. Interfaces can be saved and loaded on other iPads.
