Max/MSP Tutorials

The Patch

You are required to propose and implement an idea in MaxMSP

This may be based on what you undertook for your mid-semester assignment, or it may be something new.

Some Ideas

• Go through the examples and tutorials, and choose something that appeals and/or interests you. Use this as a template for developing your own patch;
• Look into the links between image and audio;
• Investigate ways of controlling audio processing parameters via the mouse;
• Choose a favourite process from another piece of software and try to emulate it via Max/MSP;
• Compose a piece of music!;
• Invent an arpeggiator;

Submission

Submission will be by the standard submission date, and ideally will be made on-line.

You must inform the relevant member of staff of your website address.

You will provide a link on your web-page/site to the relevant downloadable document(s). These will be in the form of a MaxMSP patch, available in both binary and text form. The options must be clearly labelled. Also, on your site, you'll provide details of what the patch does, what components it uses, and what resources the user requires to operate the software.

Include a screen shot if you can. (On a Macintosh, you can do this by pressing shift-command-3, opening the resulting 'picture' file (it'll be on the desktop), saving in a web-friendly format, such as JPEG and uploading this to your website. The code to display an image is:

 <IMG SRC="the_URL_of_your_image.jpg" ALT="screenshot of my patch" WIDTH="100" HEIGHT="100">

.)

I'll attempt to check the documents out and let you know if there's a problem. If there is a problem you may have to consider submitting on disc, etc.
