MaxMSP Example Patches

  1. JET - can't really remember what this was!
  2. HELLO - Early versions of the patch behind the composition Hello
  3. BASIC - recording, amplifiers, keys, lines: a bit of a lucky dip
  4. SFPLAY - playing and manipulating sound files from disc, as opposed to play~ which uses a buffer in memory
  5. FILES - Example of the use of files - opening, finding, using, etc.
  6. PERFORMANCE_TEMPLATES - Some basic templates for performance using four different Max/MSP methods - sfplay~, human interface control (hi), audio in (Tapin and Tapout), sound synthesis and rhythm manipulation.
  7. Subpatch - Patches within Patches
  8. Connections-tutorial.txt -
  9. psy - Don't worry about this one!
  10. Ninos - Don't worry about this one!
  11. Paf - Phase Aligned Formant Synthesizer - The paf~ object synthesizes a formant with a specified center frequency, bandwidth, and amplitude. Each parameter change takes a target time as in the line object.
  12. POLY - the poly~ object, which makes polyphonic synth building more easy and efficient
  13. MIDI -
    Warning: file(../../../../courses/tech_resources/max-msp/examples/MIDI/about.txt) [function.file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /data03/rhoadley/public_html/courses/tech_resources/max-msp/examples/index.php on line 83

  14. PLAY - The play~ object allows you to manipulate the playback of soundfiles from a buffer in memory, as opposed to from disc (see sfplay~)
  15. OSC - an implementation of Open Sound Control in Max/MSP
  16. Munger - the original munger~ granulator - compare to the SC port
  17. CLICK - Patches working towards the composition Click
  18. SAMPLING - simple(r) versions of groove~ and sfplay~
  19. SOUNDS - A few sounds - not very good...
  20. MISC - Um... miscellaneous stuff...
  21. GRICH - granularisation example
  22. Messages - constructing variable messages with message boxes
  23. IDM - a collection of IDM implementations on Max/MSP
  24. WIGGLE - Wiggle is a half-baked start at the development of an SH-101 style bass-line maker. Half-baked.
  25. Degrade - A rather nice example of active use of degrade. Audio sample included.
  26. Templates - Max/MSP Templates
  27. CONTROLLERS - Awaiting description...
  28. FMSYNTHEX - a really basic FM Synth, slightly expanded
  29. stochastic.zip -
  30. NUMBERS - Examples dealing with numbers in Max
  31. Chords - generating (MIDI) chords in Max
  32. MATRIX - nothing to do with Keanu Reeves
  33. FRAZIER-REED.zip -
  34. GEN - The Gen series, part the Percolate externals: they generate a variety of attractive waves
  35. Connections - incomplete: connecting MIDI events to a number of control objects
  36. TAP - the Tap delay object
  37. composite_tutorials - Some patches concerning MIDI operations and some maths - for instance a version of the wondrous algorithm
  38. RECORDING - Recording to buffer and recording to file
  39. ENV - a couple of ways of dealing with envelopes - it's not as straightforward as you might think!
  40. MSP-DOC-TUT-PATCH - Cyclig '74's MSP tutorial patches
  41. Fiddle - a messy, but working example of use of the fiddle~ object
  42. FMSYNTH - a really basic FM Synth
  43. Munger.zip -
  44. BBCUT - collection (currently only one!) of ideas based on Nick Collins' SC external BBCut
  45. REVERB - example(s) of in-patch reverberation. Be careful as these slow the patch significantly. Consider adding reverb later or externally to your patch.
  46. MouseState - Patches utilising the object MouseState
  47. GATES - gates in general, but particularly noise-gates and modulating one sound with the envelope of another
