You should set the custom unit style to something like %0.6f if you want 6 digits, here is an example with 3: <pre><code> ----------begin_max5_patcher---------- 303.3ociRssaBCCC84juhJKs25pJrAB1uxzTUJ3BAklTk3VAB0+8kKsCl1XZ ujDe7wGGejuxYPs4L5fr2xdOiwtxYrHT.fMEyfVw4cJgKRCTxArP22FXkmxO HrZQK9nzcBZ2Qo9Pk...

pid is right, you have to relaunch Max/Live with C compiled externals. JavaScript objects can be reloaded on the fly (there's even a global property called autowatch for that), and for Java based objects, you just need to reinstantiate the mxj object.

You can't dynamically change the range. This would destroy the automation.

Could you post an example?

It's for line/line~/curve~, isn't? I would say that 99% of the time this is not what you want to do, using trigger or a wildcard in a message box ($1), will do the trick. Anyhow here is an example: <pre><code> ----------begin_max5_patcher---------- 347.3ocyTssaCBCC84vWQTdlUw0BZusui0poTvqMSPBhDjnqp+6...

The Bayerische Theaterakademie (Bavarian Theatre Academy) in Munich organizes a Ableton Live & Max for Live -Workshop from March. 12.-14. The workshop is divided in two parts: 1) Fri. 12. & Sat.13. morning : Ableton “Live”, held by Christian Kleine ( Ableton); 2) Sat.13. afternoon & Sun....

What to do to understand the Slide help file : slide filters an input value logarithmically between changes. The formula is y (n) = y (n-1) + ((x (n) - y (n-1))/slide). It's particularly useful for envelope following and lowpass filtering. you need to understand what y(n) , and x(n) means and that'...

that ... didn't (seem to) work...but now that i think about it again, i think i know why. when i open a patch in edit mode, that number is not generated. Yeah that must be it. Doing something like that seems to work fine: var id; function findId() { var str = jsarguments[1]; id = str.replace(/(.+)r...

How do i figure out the patchers --- number in a js file? The easiest way is to put something as argument to your js object, like "js yourawesomejsfile.js ---randomstuff". Then in your global code you can access to the argument of your js object (using jsarguments[1]) and then parse that ...

Hi Bit.... You could use send and receive to get the information into the bpatcher.... if the object looks like s ---info and r ---info then the three --- mean the send and receive only occurs within the patch that they are written and not across all patches creating possible conflicts with multipl...

Let me explain a little bit more. Each MfL device potentially live its life in a different thread than the others, and you don't have any control over it (Live does the threading repartition/optimization). Furthermore, each device use its own scheduler (synched to the Live transport). Using send/rec...

Hi, I think I realize that if I should quit fucking around with sound programming, and really learn this stuff, I need to get my math skills up to a certain level. What do I need to know if most topics of Msp except fft should make sense to me? Do I need to be expert in general algebra and geometry...

in your program overview I've noticed the item "threading: why send/receive is bad".
Can you recommend any other method for data communication between M4L devices?

not using multiple device and directly link the sub-system... :?

That's exactly it ;-)

quel est le programme ?

Something like that.

nothing of interest there. it was just left in after debugging etc i expect. someone forgot to take it out? you could delete it no probs, or leave it in. only would have any effect if open in full Max/MSP. Indeed, it was there for debugging purposes from the early development age (prototype in Max ...
