Max/MSP Tutorial HD - Jonny Greenwood style stutter effect

I was asked to create some crazy guitar effect and so I tried to emulate one of the Max/MSP patches that Jonny Greenwood uses. Its definitely my own take on it, so its not what he uses exactly, but it sounds cool! Who could ask for anything more?

If this doesn't make any sense, I'm making a beginner version which goes step by step how to make an ultra simple version of this patch.

I'll be making a version 2 of this patch, which will be more full featured and less hacky. That version I'll have for download when its done.

EDIT:
Ok I decided to have everything I do on here downloadable. So now you can download this patch, but its completely unfinished in this version.

Love the tutorial and the patch. Would you be able to provide the guitar setup in the video? What is the guitar signal running through exactly?

[JoelisRich]

@lingerlonger82 its just guitar into motu 828 through the patch into my friend's very nice vintage amp. All of the distortion is what the amp is doing. Any soundcard with a preamp would be more or less fine.

Thanks for posting this - these tutorials have a lot of useful tips in. (just to double check, you know there's a [stutter~] object, right? - not staying it's better, just checking)

[JoelisRich]

@4lefts Yes I know about it ;) I just prefer this method. I do a few groove~ tutorials that kind of illustrate why I like it so much.

hello, thank you alot for this, but is there any chance you can send me the file? the url in the drop down menu doesn't appear to work!

[JoelisRich]

@Mikestingray URL fixed... I'm an idiot and tend to put extra letters in file names apparently.

i dont know Max (im still trying to see how reaktor works, hehe), but i guess there is a way of creating a controller right? so u could assigned to a midi pedal and control whatever parameter u wanted...

@hollowharmony1

IK StealthPedal would be one way.

Maybe KMI SoftStep?

[divisionmonarchy]

seems like a cool patch, but you're not really explaining anything & the link is just some text code... nice video, but is kind of unhelpful for beginners... if you explained the setup like you did for the basic stutter effect, it would be perfect...

[PochoProfeta145]

say to your friend that i love his beard :)... cool Effect bro!

zoom h4n!

its funny, i tried redoing the patch, just by looking at yours, but mine reacts a bit differently. very aggressive and with heavy pitches and ramps. anyways, any idea how to get rid of clicking from my output?

[MrDominoes]

Hi Joel. I hooked up my own copy of your patch and I really like it. The feedback is delicious.

[badassaxeman0]

Hey man great job on this patch! I am going to include this design into some of my future effects for sure!

[juanbustamante]

@JoelisRich Hey man! The patch sound amazing. Congrats! I've read all the comments and some people (myself included) are having trouble understanding the connections inside all of this madness. Where do I plugin my guitar? - is it guitar-preamp-computer? And after that how do I get it out into the amp? How do I connect a footswitch to the patch? Im sorry for any inconvenience but I'm pretty new and dumb with all this stuff I would much appreciate your help!
