midimapping Patch MIDI Mapping
These are three 16X16 matrix patches that allow you to map midi input into max by moving a fader or pressing a key.
Modal Mediant External The Modal Mediant object shows chromatic mediant (chromatic third) relationships for a given mode.

created by V.J. Manzo
The modal median object receives a tonic and mode name in its inlets and populates a list of modes in a chromatic median relationship with the initial mode. When one of these related modes is selected from the list, the object automatically repopulates the list with modes related to the new key.

Modal ShiftList External The Modal_Shiftlist object is like the Modal_Shift object, but stores all related modes into a selectable menu

created by V.J. Manzo
The modal shiftlist object receives a tonic and mode name in its inlets and populates a list of all related modes sharing 6 of 7 notes. It takes the pitches of the scale and moves each scale degree up or down one at a time to see if a new diatonic mode can be formed. This process will list 42 related modes for any of the major scale modes, 28 related modes for any of the melodic minor scale modes, 21 related modes for any of the harmonic minor scale modes, and 21 related modes for any of the harmonic major scale modes.
When one of these related modes is selected from the list, the object automatically repopulates the list with modes related to the new key.

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.

modal_pc_match External The modal_pc_match object takes an incoming note in its left inlet and compares it against the diatonic pitch classes of any scale.



created by V.J. Manzo
The modal_pc_match object takes an incoming note in its left inlet and compares it against the diatonic pitch classes of any scale as defined by the modal_change object. If the incoming pitch matches one of the pitch classes of the scale, the object outputs a bang from one of its first seven outlets.
The object also defines the chromatic notes between diatonic scale degrees. If an incoming pitch matches a chromatic scale degree, the object outputs a bang from one of the next 14 outlets. For example, a C# played in the key of C Major is between scale degrees 1 & 2 - C & D - a whole step. An incoming C# in any octave will send a bang out of the outlet marked “Match Scale Degree #1” [read Sharp One].
The incoming note may also match a chromatic scale degree between a step and a half (3 semitones). In this case, two chromatic notes are next to each other separated by a half step. The lower of the two chromatic notes is referred to as the “#1” (assuming that the step and half interval is located between scale degrees 1 and 2 as is the case in the sixth mode of the harmonic minor scale, Lydian #2). The other chromatic note is closer to the higher scale degree and would be referred to as “b2”, thus the object would output the message “Match Scale Degree b2”. For example, imagine a G played in the key of A Harmonic Minor (between scale degrees 6 & 7 - F & G#). An F# is interpreted as “#6” and the G is interpreted as “b7”. Note: only the harmonic minor and harmonic major scales and their modes have two scale degrees separated by a step and a half.
In addition to matching chromatic pitches, the modal_pc_match object also outputs the chromatic pitch classes out of its last 14 outlets. Note that this means some notes will be redundant. For example, scale degree_b2 will be the same pitch as scale degree_#1 in Major keys. Once again, this will not be the case in the modes of harmonic minor and harmonic major where two pitch classes are separated by 3 semitones.

modifiers External report the state of the keyboard's modifier keys
MouseK External sends the state of the mouse key in both complementary ways
mp.assignment Abstraction Connect any input device to this bpatcher and assign it to any parameter. Works with HID, Midi, ASCI keyboard and lists.
mp.assignment is a fiddly little bpatcher that allows you to connect any input device and assign it to whatever you like. Because it is tied into the pattrstorage system, the assignment can change dynamically. This means a parameter in max can be controlled by any input device and this can change during performance or if you have different input devices available on different occasions, or if you decide you don't like the mapping you originally designed, you don't need to edit the patch just make a new preset for it.
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.
mxj_autobot Javaclass (mxj) Generate keyboard and mouse events from Max
Generate native system input events
next External Detect logical separation of messages
The next object sends out a bang out its left outlet when an incoming message is not part of the same Max "event" as a previous message. (An "event" is a mouse click, key press, MIDI event, or tick of the scheduler.) Otherwise, the next object sends a bang out its right outlet. Use the next object to do something once per dump of an object such as coll.
note2frq Abstraction Converts a note into frequency.
Converts a note (= MIDI key number or MIDI cents) into frequency.
note2pitch Abstraction Outputs the pitch class of a note
Outputs the pitch class (i.e. a note without register information) of a note (i.e. key number) .
numkey External Interpret numbers typed on the computer keyboard
process key presses into numbers
operand Standalone Application with the rise of granular synthesis becoming more and more popular, either being with synthesizers or sample manglers. the one thing i have not seen of it, is step sequencers, none at all.
this is where operand comes in.

Libraries
EAMIR - the Electro-acoustic Musically Interactive Room
debug: SELECT prenom, nom FROM auteurs RIGHT JOIN auteur_libraries USING (id_auteur) WHERE auteur_libraries.id_library='133'V.j. Manzo The EAMIR project is an open-source effort to enable educators with technology for music education. Software is designed around a common configuration which can be easily implemented by music educators around the world by downloading source code and standalone applications through eamir.org.

Users who understand programming can edit the source code and post their new source and standalone applications back to the site for the EAMIR community to use.

Much of the EAMIR software is also designed to allow students with physical and mental disabilities to create meaningful music using interfaces that are accessible to their needs.


The EAMIR SDK allows users to easily create their own EAMIR-like applications by connecting preassembled interface modules to musical modules. The interfaces include cameras with color tracking, guitar hero controllers, wii remotes and devices, dance dance revolution pads, and other gaming controllers as well as traditional MIDI instruments like keyboards.
