Max/MSP Live Coding nr.3

A realtime performance of creating a Max-patch, starting from zero.

The Rules:

- You have 6 minutes to build a Max-patch and do a performance with it.
- Start with an empty patch.
- Only use the standard objects that are part of Max/MSP/Jitter.
- Don't use externals, pre-build external datafiles, help files, or anything of that kind.

Hey there. I have a question: at approx. 2:44 you duplicate the scope object, then move your mouse over the output of the first [sinx~] object. A little help window pops up with a meter in it! I've never seen that before. how do you enable it?

[edopaulus]

@ArgeeBrobot hold the mouse pointer over an audio signal line, it should show this audiometer. If not, check your preferences: Probing. Audio should be on too. A feature since Max5.

god, u are a genious!

but, don`t tell me that you haven`t exercised that before!?

[edopaulus]

@stoersignal25 Oh, certainly have I practiced quite a few times before recording it. Every number, every connection has to be the way it is to get to the desired result.

how did you make the two boxes transparent?

Thanks so much for this. I've been using Max for less than 24hours. You taught me more in 6minutes than in the hours of tutorials I'm putting myself through. I haven't been this excited for music and progaming in years.
