Modal Prog	External		The Modal_Prog object takes n chord functions and displays the triads of user inputted chord progressions. created by V.J. Manzo The modal prog object takes a list of chords (as in a progression) in its right inlet and outputs each of those chords one at a time to the modal triad object when a bang is sent to the left inlet. The object integrates with the modal_triad object and will interpret any message that modal triad does. By default, a new list of chords triggered when a list is currently being played will sound on the next bang received. With the optional argument '@immediate 0', a new list of chords triggered when a list is currently being played will sound as soon as each chord from the first list has been played. created by V.J.

Modal Triad	External		The Modal_Triad object generates chords in root position or inversions. It takes traditional chord names, chord function numbers, Roman numerals, tonicizations, etc. It even takes altered chords like Ebdom7b9#11. created by V.J. Manzo The modal triad object allows a user to play tertian chords of any quality. It receives scale data from the modal_change object and, when a tonic and mode is selected, the object receives the numbers 1-8 in its leftmost inlet to output the notes of the chord function associated with that number. For example, in major keys, the numbers 1, 4 and 5 are always major chords, 2, 3, and 6 are minor, so, if C Major is selected, a 2 sent to the modal_triad object will yield the notes of a d minor chord. For each selected chord, the notes of that chord are sent to the object’s 7 outlets in the following order: root, third, fifth, seventh, ninth, eleventh, thirteenth. Alterations like flat ninth or sharp eleventh are inferred by the chord function as it relates to the selected tonic and mode. The second inlet of the object allows the chord tones, received as pitch classes, to be restricted to one octave. The object also takes Roman numeral functions to yield chords. The standard capital Roman numerals for major, lower case Roman numerals for minor are used. A lower case Roman numeral iv in the key of C Major will yield an F minor chord regardless of the fact that chord has non-diatonic chord tones in it, the Ab. A capital Roman numeral with a plus sign next to it will yield an augmented chord, and a lowercase Roman numeral with a zero next to it will yield a diminished chord. In the same manner, a user can use letter names to build chords. A capital C will yield a C Major chord while a lower case e will yield an e minor chord. A capital C plus will yield an augmented chord and a lower case d zero will yield a d diminished chord. (set to C Major) This object also receives messages for tonicizations. A user can send the message Roman numeral V/5, to yield the 5 of 5 (a D Major chord in the key of C Major). The V Chord Tonicizations produce a Dominant 7th chord for each scale degree in the selected mode. That is, the root, 3rd, 5th, and 7th will form a Dominant 7th Chord exactly one perfect 5th above a given scale degree. The 9th, 11th, and 13th pitches of the chord are inferred according to the selected mode and NOT the mode from which the tonicizing chord prevails. Similarly the object allows other types of tonicizations including leading tone tonications and minor four tonicizations. Augmented 6th chords and Neopolitan chords can also be implemented. It even takes altered chords like Ebdom7b9#11. created by V.J. Manzo www.vjmanzo.com | www.vincemanzo.com
modal_chord_analysis	Abstraction		The the modal_chord_analysis object identifies a list of notes as tertian chords. The root, chord quality, harmonic function, inversion, and bass note are given as output. For added notes beyond the triad, M is used to indicate major intervals, m for mino The the modal_chord_analysis object identifies a list of notes as tertian chords. The root, chord quality, harmonic function, inversion, and bass note are given as output. For added notes beyond the triad, M is used to indicate major intervals, m for minor intervals, P for perfect intervals. # and b are used to indicate alterations in perfect intervals. created by V.J.

modal_fuzzharm	External		The modal_fuzzharm object outputs a fuzzy logic chord harmonization based on incoming pitch classes. a.k.a. an auto-chord harmonizer. created by V.J. Manzo The modal_fuzzharm object outputs a fuzzy logic chord harmonization based on incoming pitch classes. The object integrates with several objects in the modal_object library including the modal_pc_match object to determine if the incoming note played is diatonic or chromatic and that notes relationship in the context of the specified tonic and mode. For example, is the incoming note scale degree 1? Is it chromatic scale degree #4? If so, how do we want to harmonize that note when we receive it? Double clicking the modal_fuzzharm object allows a user to see a table of chord symbols that the modal_triad object can interpret. The user can increase the probability weight to the table by clicking on one of the cells in the column for the desired chord/function listed in the top row. By default, all probabilities are set to zero. For example, if the incoming note matches scale degree one, you’d probably want to harmonize that note with the I chord, the IV chord and the vi chord since that scale degree one is present in all of these chords. Other chords may be used to harmonize that note as well, but you’d probably want the object to choose some chords more frequently than others, so we give them a higher table weight by clicking further down on the cells. A bang sent to the modal_fuzzharm object will choose one of the chords to harmonize that note with based on the weightings you’ve specified. The table can be opened and presets can be saved. In the help file for this object, the seven diatonic scale degrees all have modal_fuzzharm objects connected so that when one of these scale degrees is played, the note will be harmonized in any way the user specifies. A specified table file has been loaded for each modal_fuzzharm object when the help opens which illustrates some default probability settings that harmonize these notes with diatonic chord functions. created by V.J.

mslcd	Patch		re-creates the basic functionality of multislider using lcd. interpolating version included...
mw.lcdrangebar	External		an lcd-based bpatcher which performs a similar function to Max\'s built-in rangebar. This one has some nifty features which the (ageing) rangebar lacks.
mxj jmonkeybessel	Javaclass (mxj)		calculates Bessel function at J(n)(B) where n = bessel number, and B = index number. ported for use in max from jmonkey engine class Bessel.
nottcp	External		this object provides an interface between MAX messages and the Open Transport TCP network abstraction layer. this object provides an interface between MAX messages and the Open Transport TCP network abstraction layer. its purpose is to send and receive data over a TCP connection. it provides also the functionality necessary to establish such a connection both at client (aka active) and server (aka passive) side.
number~	External		Signal monitor, converter, and generator number~ is designed to make it convenient to monitor signal outputs for debugging. It can also be used to supply a constant signal value. It combines the functions of snapshot~, a floating-point number box, and sig~/line~. number~ can display either the incoming signal (when the wave icon is present in the box) or the outgoing signal (when the arrow icon is present). Click on the picture to switch display modes. When the display shows the input signal being monitored, you can't change the value by clicking or typing. When the outgoing signal value is displayed, you can click in the box to select it for typing or change it in the same way as a floating-point number box.
optsine~	External		generate a sinewave by sine function calculation.
overdrive~	External		Apply nonlinear transfer function (aka waveshaping) to a signal to simulate an overdriven amplifier. overdrive~ distorts signals by applying a nonlinear transfer function. The shape of the function is determined by a floating-point "drive" parameter. If drive is 1., the signal is unchanged. Increasing drive increases the distortion. If drive is set to less than zero, VERY LOUD BAD distortion results, which may or may not be desireable. Use caution.
pass~	External		Elminate noise when listening to a muted subpatcher Elminate noise when listening to a muted subpatcher. Use pass~ before the outputs of a subpatcher you intend to mute. When the subpatcher is disabled using mute~, the pass~ object outputs a zero signal. Otherwise it passes the input to the output. If pass~ isn't used, the output of a muted subpatcher could be any signal, even one making unwelcome noise, because the function of mute~ is not to zero the volume of the output but to eliminate the DSP processing (and therefore the CPU utilization) of the subpatcher. An alternative to using pass~ would be to put a volume control on the output that is set to zero when the subpatcher is muted.
peqbank1~	Abstraction		parametric EQ filter bank This is a complete parametric EQ filter bank comprised of two shelving filters and two band filters. in succession. It is designed to provide the functionality of the parametric EQ modules on a professional mixing console. Since it is just an agglomeration of peq1~ and two peq2~ modules, you should refer to the descriptions of these two abstractions, above.
phaseshift~	External		Allpass phase-shifting filter Allpass phase-shifting filter. phaseshift~ is a 2nd-order phase shift filter. It provides a nonlinear delay time as a function of input frequency, emulating the phase shift elements found in analog phase shifter effects. Cascade several phaseshift~ objects to create a more dramatic effect.

FuzzyLib	debug: SELECT prenom, nom FROM auteurs RIGHT JOIN auteur_libraries USING (id_auteur) WHERE auteur_libraries.id_library='139'Alain Bonardi Isis Truck	When manipulating human knowledge such as perception, feelings, appreciation, veracity of facts, etc., the classical logic that recognize only two truth degrees (true or false) is not always the most suitable. To solve this problem, more than two degrees are considered in the non-classical logics. The fuzzy logic is one of these logics. In this logic, facts are represented through membership functions: when the membership value is equal to 1 the fact is exactly true; when it is equal to 0 the fact is exactly false; in between there is an uncertainty about the veracity of the fact. These membership functions are called "fuzzy subsets". They can be of different shapes: gaussian, trapezoidal, triangular, etc. Thus the aim of the fuzzy logic is to propose a theoretical framework for the manipulation - representation and reasoning - of such facts. The Fuzzy Lib library implements all the tools that are necessary to handle this manipulation: representation of a fuzzy subset (among them are the fuzzification, defuzzification and partitioning), reasoning process (generalized modus ponens, fuzzy implications, t-norms, t-conorms, etc.). This version 1 of the Fuzzy Lib enables to implement fuzzification, uncertain reasoning and defuzzification for any number of data in the framework of Max/MSP environment.
jb.utilities	debug: SELECT prenom, nom FROM auteurs RIGHT JOIN auteur_libraries USING (id_auteur) WHERE auteur_libraries.id_library='121'Joseph Branciforte	A set of 50 abstractions for performing both common and awkward tasks in Max/MSP.

Jitter is useful to anyone interested in real-time video processing, custom effects, 2D/3D graphics, audio/visual interaction, data visualization, and analysis
MaxAlea	debug: SELECT prenom, nom FROM auteurs RIGHT JOIN auteur_libraries USING (id_auteur) WHERE auteur_libraries.id_library='96'Carl Faia	MaxAlea contains various objects for random distributions and functions. MaxAlea was begun as a Max port of an existing PatchWork Library created in 1991-2 by Mikhail Malt. While the distributions and functions found in MaxAlea are similar to those found in the Patchwork version ,there are many differences in their functioning. The environment of Patchwork is static and is not designed for real-time work. Part of the incentive for creating these objects to work with Max was to have a dynamic and real-time environment with which to experiment and work with these algorithms in a manner as simple and straightforward as possible. One can change variables and manipulate the output in many ways in real-time. There are several different versions of the various stochastic models/processes best presented in the now classic references by Denis Lorrain and Charles Dodge. Carl Faia has used a variety of sources for the creation of this library which include the Lorrain, Dodge and Malt implementations as well as sources found on the WorldWideWeb. The externals found in the package include several random distributions, examples of random walks and 1/f noise algorithms, as well as one or two utilities written specifically for the MaxAlea library. Carl Faia wanted to make a coherent collection (as he thought Malt had managed to do in PatchWork) of these various algorithms and provide an interface easily accessible using the Max environment for real-time control. All these algorithms have been created using a seeded version of the random function found in the standard AINSI library. That is, each time the function is first run there will always be a different set of random numbers (unlike the random funtions found in Max, PatchWork and other versions of random number generators).
MegaMax	debug: SELECT prenom, nom FROM auteurs RIGHT JOIN auteur_libraries USING (id_auteur) WHERE auteur_libraries.id_library='35'Stephen Kay	The MegaMAX™ Collection is a set of 33 external objects for use with Opcode's MAX programming environment. It was created by professional musician and programmer Stephen Kay in an effort to deal with some of the frustrations and limitations of creating a professional looking, feeling and functioning application. But you don't have to be an application developer! The MegaMAX Collection is for anyone who wants to make better-looking and functioning Max patchers at all levels.
Panaiotis Objects	debug: SELECT prenom, nom FROM auteurs RIGHT JOIN auteur_libraries USING (id_auteur) WHERE auteur_libraries.id_library='122' Panaiotis	The Mac version is UB. These Max objects have been enhanced since the documentation to the left was written. Help files for the objects provide information on enhancements. The matrix object has been substantially upgraded. It now combines features of unpack, spray, funnel, append, and prepend into one object. This makes a great object to place between controllers and jit objects because it acts like a multi-prepend. There are new configuration commands and enhancements to the old: even, odd, mod,and range, among others). Most commands can be applied to inlets of outlets. There is also a mute function that adds another layer of control. Matrixctrl support has been enhanced. See the help file for full details and examples. Most other objects now fully support floats. RCer and autocount will count in float values, not just integers. Notegen16 is a 16 channel version of its predecessor: notegen. It is more generalized and much more efficient.
PeRColate	debug: SELECT prenom, nom FROM auteurs RIGHT JOIN auteur_libraries USING (id_auteur) WHERE auteur_libraries.id_library='5'Dan Trueman	PeRColate is an open-source distribution of a variety of synthesis and signal processing algorithms for Max, MSP, and Nato. It is centered around a (partial) port of the Synthesis Toolkit (STK) by Perry Cook (Princeton) and Gary Scavone (Stanford CCRMA). Like the STK, it provides a fairly easy to use library of synthesis and signal processing functions (in C) that can be wired together to create conventional and unusual instruments. Also like the STK, it includes a variety of precompiled synthesis objects, including physical modeling, modal, and PhISM class instruments; the code for these instruments can serve as foundations for creating new instruments (one example, the blotar, is included) and can be used to teach elementary and advanced synthesis techniques. Given it's STK heritage and educational function, PeRColate is largely un-optimized, though all the objects run on a 80MHz 7100, which is pretty good. PeRColate also includes a number of objects not from the STK; some are from RTcmix and others are our own evil creations, designed to crash your computer, but only after making some kind of interesting sound or image.
SFA Max/MSP Library	debug: SELECT prenom, nom FROM auteurs RIGHT JOIN auteur_libraries USING (id_auteur) WHERE auteur_libraries.id_library='172'Stefano Fasciani	The SFA-MaxLib is a collection of Max/MSP objects developed in the context of the VCI4DMI.
