Hey!

Can anyone tell me how to if possible to link MaxMSP to Modul8, I want to be able to make MaxMSP to control midi in M8, but I can not seem to find a place for this.

Thanks

connect them via the IAC Driver - send the midi from modul8 and or max/msp to the IAC driver then take the midi from there to the other software. pretty simple. I've not got max/msp on this machine, but I imagine it is easy to set up midi routing to what ever destination you like in max, modul8 will accept midi from any source that is connected too your mac.

Another interesting way is to use OSC (more flexible)
I can send to you a module for that if you need.

HI what is OSC?

Not familiar, I have just discovered this awsome app. yesterday, now I am exploring the demo.

But I am very interested.

Can you see my email?

i answered your question in this topic:

hey Boris, please send me your OSC module,i'm interested in . OSC is more flexible because the range if values is about a thousand (am i right?) wheras MIDI has only a range of 127 values .

you'll get more accurate controls abd above all OSC is faster than MIDI

The OSC module is now on the online library.
OSC (global)


With this module Modul8 can receive and send OSC messages.
OSC message can control all the elements of the the main interface.
This module uses the internal keyword process included in the modules system. In this way you can also control some functionalities that are not included in the main interface of Modul8.
All Modul8 keywords can be found the "Keyword browser" in the Module menu.

For modul8 to receive an OSC message the "keyword listener" in the Module needs to be active.

The address in the OSC message must be:
/md8key/[modul8 keword]/[layer Position]

The layer Position is a value from 1 to 10 or a special value, the special values are:
0 = selected layer
-1 = all layers

Example:
An OSC message that changes the alpha channel to 0.5 of the selected layer:
['md8key/ctrl_layer_alpha/0','f',0.5]

The same nomeclature will be used to send an OSC message to the target when the "feedback sender" is active on the Module.

Tanks Boris
I have install the OSC Module and MaxMSP4.6 send and receive the messages at my first test.
Great work!
