sadam.dom	Javaclass (mxj)		A Document Object Model (DOM) interface for Max. sadam.dom will create, read, store or even modify DOM trees. The DOM is one of the possible representations of the contents of an XML document (see http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/.) The object internally uses the default Java DOM parser that comes as an instance of javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory, bringing all the power and almost all of the functionality of a W3C-certified DOM parser to MaxMSP. The kind of Nodes currently not handled by sadam.dom are: Comment, Entity, EntityReference, Notation and ProcessingInstruction. When an XML is parsed, the object will assign a unique ID to each Element of the document, called the Element Index. This index won't get stored and changes each time when the order of Elements in the XML is modified (either by inserting or removing Elements). However, using the Element Index is the preferred (and in most cases, the only) way to address a given element in the XML. The Element Index is sent out the rightmost outlet each time an element is accessed. The Element Index of the Document Element is always 0, the rest of the Elements get their index in their 'order of appearence'. This means that even if an Element is being inserted or removed, the Index of the Elements that come earlier in the Document won't change. When querying Attributes, Text, or CDATA nodes, the requested data will be sent out the appropriate outlets in right-to-left order (in case of Attributes, if more than one Attribute is requested, they will be sent to the output as a sequence like AttributeName1-AttributeValue1-AttributeName2-AttributeValue2-...-AttributeNameN-AttributeValueN, alternating on the appropriate outlets) followed by an error code. When querying Elements, the result will be sent out as a sequence (from right to left) consisting of the Element Index, the Tree Depth of the Element (the Document Element is at level 0, its children are at level 1 etc.), the Element's Tag Name, the Attributes, and finally the Text Content (which is a concatenation of all Text and CDATA nodes). The leftmost outlet serves as an error outlet. After each command sent to the object, an error code is being sent back through this outlet at the end of the execution of the given command. A negative value means that the command could not be executed successfully, while 0 means success. In some cases (typically when one or more Elements are queried) the error outlet reports the number of Elements successfully returned. sadam.dom and sadam.sax are both W3C compliant XML parsers, however, this means some overhead in terms of resources. If you need a lightweight, fast XML parser and you can live with some limitations regarding W3C compliance, consider using sadam.rapidXML.
sadam.mutex	External		Mutual exclusion (semaphore) object. sadam.mutex will help you managing the access of shared resources in your patch using semaphores. A semaphore can be locked and released, and while locked, it will prevent messages from passing through. Each semaphore must have an unique name, and instances of sadam.mutex with the same name will access the same semaphore. Each mutex has two modes, they can be either locker or releaser instances to the same semaphore. A locker object will test for each incoming message whether the semaphore is locked and if not, it will lock the semaphore and pass the message to the appropriate outlet. Releaser objects will release the semaphore each time a message arrives to their inlet.
sadam.simpleAddSynth~	External		Additive synthesizer with constant parameters. Must be downloaded separately from the ZiMT's website: http://www.mdw.ac.at/zimt/downloads-e.html
sadam.standardMap~	External		A chaotic oscillator based on Chirikov's Standard Map. sadam.standardMap~ will generate a signal based on the Standard Map, a one-parameter chaotic model widely used in condensed matter physics. As input it takes one parameter, the so-called 'kicking strength' (K). The initial phase (X0) and moment (P0) of the oscillator can be set manually or randomly. The object outputs the current phase (X) and moment (P) of the oscillator (the phase is scaled to fit in the [-1;1] region). The third outlet gives the current velocity of the phase point representing the current state of the oscillator. For further info about the Standard Map see http://www.scholarpedia.org/article/Chirikov_s color="#CC0000">tandard_map.
sadam.stat	External		Get mean and standard deviation of a number sequence. sadam.stat will compute the mean and the standard deviation of a sequence of numbers. With no arguments it will compute these values using all the numbers it received (like the mean object) while by declaring a fixed buffer size N it will do the calculations only on the last N entries.
sadam.tcpSender	External		Send data through the network using the TCP protocol. sadam.tcpSender will send data to a specified IPv4 address on a specified port. Currently it is only able to send binary data (either by sending bytes directly to the object or by registering it to a binary stream represented by sadam.stream) but in a later release it will support any arbitrary Max message. The connection is not kept alive, instead, it is opened each time a message is being sent and closed just afterwards. This makes sure that the underlying operating system would send the messages instantaneously.
sc3~	External		encapsulates/links to the SuperCollider 3 music programming language I am releasing v 0.996 (Max5, OSX 10.5/6) of my [sc3~] object for Max/MSP. This object acts as a bridge between Max/MSP and the SuperCollider 3 language. The free download and information is available here: http://music.columbia.edu/~brad/sc3~/ [sc3~] allows data and audio to be sent to/from the sclang and scsynth processes, making it easy to integrate the SuperCollider 3 language into Max/MSP work. Multiple instantiations of the object can exist in a single patcher, and SC3 scripts can be constructed within Max/MSP or stored in the object's buffers for convenient recall with a patch. Full source for the object and the modified SuperCollider files are also available at the site. This syncs the object with the latest stable release (SC3 v 3.4) of SuperCollider 3. I hope people find this useful -- Good luck, enjoy it! For more information about SuperCollider 3, visit: http://supercollider.sourceforge.net/ Brad Garton, Director Columbia University Computer Music Center http://music.columbia.edu/~brad
SD	External		Calculate Average, Deviations, Bariance, and Standard Deviation
serial	External		Get and send characters to Macintosh serial ports and cards The serial object works only with ports and devices supported by the standard serial driver. It does not work with USB ports and devices, unless a USB to Serial adaptor is connected.
serialX	External		serialX is an interface to the serial ports on a Macintosh. serialX is an interface to the serial ports on a Macintosh. It provides functionality over and above that of the standard serial object.
setclock	External		Control the clock speed of timing objects remotely Create a named redefinition of the timing source used by various objects.The setclock object allows you to create one of several modes of timing that provide alternatives to the standard millisecond clock. Each setclock is associated with a name (its first argument), and this name may be passed as the argument to a "clock" message to numerous objects that use timing in Max, such as metro, line, and pipe.The subpatchers below demonstrate each of the four setclock modes. Double-click to see them.
sfa.featfluxgate.maxpat	External		gated distance on stream of feature vectors Abstraction
sfa.std.maxpat	External		standard deviation Abstraction
sfplay~	External		Soundfile playback Soundfile playback. sfplay~ plays AIFF, SD II, NeXT/SUN(.au), WAVE, and Raw Data files of 1-8 tracks from disk. To play a file, you send sfplay~ the open message, then send it a 1 to start and a 0 to stop. open takes an argument to specify a filename in the search path. You can also create additional cues with the preload message. These can reference other files, all of which are simultaneously accessible. The open message sets the "current" file: the one that plays back from the beginning when 1 is sent and is used as the default for the preload message. sfplay~ can also connect to the cues defined in an sflist~ object. Since multiple sfplay~ objects can reference the same sflist~, this allows you to store a global list of cues. See the sflist~ help file for more details. (be sure to open the "new features" sub patch to find out about variable speed playback, looping, triggering cues with audio signals, and more)
sig~	External		Output a constant value as a signal Output a constant value as a signal. This object converts a float or int to a signal. It also accepts a signal in, which it ignores. You connect a begin~ to the input of a signal to use it in defining the start of a signal processing network you want to turn on or off.

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. created by V.J. Manzo www.vjmanzo.com | www.eamir.org
loadbang.net SQL	debug: SELECT prenom, nom FROM auteurs RIGHT JOIN auteur_libraries USING (id_auteur) WHERE auteur_libraries.id_library='99'Nick Rothwell	A Java library for communicating with SQL databases from MXJ. We currently support MySQL and HSQLDB. The HSQLDB system includes an embedded database instance, so it runs automatically from text files in Max\'s search path; no external database server configuration is necessary.
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).
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. It includes functions and utilities in the form of FTM externals, FTM abstractions and Max abstractions.

suivi	debug: SELECT prenom, nom FROM auteurs RIGHT JOIN auteur_libraries USING (id_auteur) WHERE auteur_libraries.id_library='88' Ircam	Two externals performing score following on soloist performances using Hidden Markov Models (HMM) Suivi is based on FTM and requires the shared library FTMlib for Max/MSP. Both externals use an FTM track object - a sequence of time-tagged FTM values - to store the score of the soloist performance to be followed. Notes, trills and other elements of the score are represented by FTM score objects (FTM scoob class). For the moment, scores can be imported from standard MIDI files only. An editor for the FTM track class, which will also provide a graphical control interface for the score follower is under development as well as the import of MusicXML files. The suivi object set is distributed within the IRCAM Forum.
