Re: Strugling with triangle wave

AFAIK, all [zl] objects accept greater numbers of list elements (up to 32,767, I believe), but you have to set the object for quantities greater than 256. From the Max Ref:

"The words "zlmaxsize," followed by a number, sets the maximum list length for all modes of operation for the zl object. It is ...

Re: M4L & MXJ

The problem with Js is there is no concept of includes and my source file quickly got way out of hand for a basic patch, and I anticipate this next one to be much more advanced by several orders of magnitude.

Re: ok I have some max for live questions... part 2

i always wondered exactly what they are using those colorpickers for. Think about it: a 2-axis UI device that maps hue horizontally, and saturation/luminance vertically, outputting a list of three values (RGB).

Not exactly standard, but hardly bogus: just associate "sound color" to "color swatch ...

Re: Generating and writing midi events into empty tracks.

Hi Nick-

I had a similar (I think) mental disconnect trying to replicate the ability to read-modify-write automation envelopes. I was used to Reaper, where you can just access that data in Python as a chunk, do something to it, and then write it back into the track. All while Reaper is stopped.

Re: How to port Max patches to M4L

I found this statement a little ambiguous with its placement of "only":
Since the Live application only works with integer values in the range 0 – 255
Can't decide whether it should really say:

"When Live works with integers, they are in the range of 0-255,"

or it really means that:

"regardless ...

Re: Compressors - Why bother emulating this old technology?

I use a Limiter called Limi that was a part of the now discontinued Pluggo bundle from Cycling 74. Even though Limi is a lot uglier looking than Ableton's Limiter, I still use Limi every time. I'll often audition Limiter, but after I try it out against Limi I go with Limi every time because I like ...

Re: Why is M4L code so badly formatted?

The point is that it's messy. I take it that's okay for you but I like my stuff nice and tidy.

Further more, ampf^D^@^@^@aaaameta^D^@^@^@^A^@^@^@ptchH^@^@ is not readable.

The only difference I see in the two pasties is a different notion of what the size of a tab is. Am I missing something ...

Re: Why is this js script not behaving?

Highmountain wrote:splice removes the elements so it should be splice(0, 6) instead of splice(a*6, 6).
Actually, because you're assigning the values to a new Array, splice()'s "removal" is unnecessary, and only slows down your script. Use slice().

Re: Why is this js script not behaving?

You rely on the number of notes returned by the call to determine the bounds of your "for" loop, when in reality, the call returned a lot more data.

You could use the result of "clip_notes.length" to set the upper bound, and knowing the size of the chunks you were interested in, ("note 64 14 2 101 ...

Difference between the orange and green triangles?

In this screen snap:

It seems the orange one is the song playing position, and the green is where play starts when you hit the space bar.

Any more info? How do you set the green one?

Thanks, Charles

Best way to move track envelopes to clip envelopes?

Hi all-

Courtesy M4L, I spend much time automating parameters via track envelopes, then want to move them to the clip I'm building.

Obviously, cut 'n' paste works, but with 8-9 parameters, it's a bit tiresome. Is there a better way?

Thanks in advance, Charles
