Thanks! I designed it and built it in collaboration with Sukandar Kartadinata, an instrument builder and musician in Berlin. The solenoid mount was built in collaboration with Halldór Úlfarsson at the Intelligent Instruments Lab in Reykjavik.

LOL 😂 "thanks" man, actually if Philip Glass liked it I would take it as a compliment 🙃

so far it has been really interesting, still just scratching the surface though! :)

@@nicolasjochem1814 thanks! 😊

Yes! The Sophtar has an embedded system that can output OSC and MIDI to other instruments

Thanks for the nice comment!

Hi, thanks! These are some great tools to do hand tracking in Max using a standard webcam: github.com/lysdexic-audio/n4m-handpose If you're looking for more precise hand tracking you may want to look into devices such as the Leap Motion Controller 2

Hi, sorry for the slow reply, the GVF externals should be in the "externals" folder, but I added just the build for Mac because unfortunately I do not one for windows. However, the issue with this example is also that the PoseNet model I used back then is now deprecated, read more here: github.com/federicoVisi/GIMLeT/issues/11

@@FedericoVisi Thanks for the reply. I think the problem is occur on a window device. Also , Can I use some of the functions in this project in my paper? Of course I'll put the reference in the end of my paper.

Hi, glad you liked it! You're right, since I made the tutorial Hexler released an entirely new version of TouchOSC. The app I used when I have made the tutorial is now called TouchOSC Mk1, you can find it here: hexler.net/touchosc-mk1 You can read more about the change here: hexler.net/news/post/touchosc-the-next-generation

@@FedericoVisi Thank you so much! I got that app too! Also that was what I guessed! Really appreciate your reply!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Hi Tracy, glad you liked GIMLeT! Thanks for reporting the error, I just tested the patch using the latest versions of modosc and GIMLeT and everything seems to be working fine. Are you using the latest version of both packages?

Hey there, glad you enjoyed. GIMLeT needs the modosc library to run. I used to include it in the package but now you have to install it separately as noted in the updated readme file. You can download modosc here: github.com/motiondescriptors/modosc/archive/main.zip

@@FedericoVisi thank you for the reply! I did all that was instructed but somehow I keep getting modosc_posenet_main: No such object. Maybe there's something wrong with my file path somewhere, I'll try to figure it out. Thanks again!

@@aqilahm3334 No worries. Try downloading modosc again perhaps, I have made some changes recently, and make sure the modosc folder is in Max/Packages. Good luck!

Thank you so much Marc! And very glad it made an interesting atmosphere for your work, especially considering the dark times we're in :)

Thanks Cumhur, glad you liked it, I'll make another tutorial for the other modules as soon as possible. Stay healthy and safe!

Grazie!

Hi! Did yo download the .zip file from GitHub using the "Clone or download" green button?

@@FedericoVisi yeah it works now. sorry, never downloaded nothing from github, thanks

@@vojkofau no worries, have fun

@@FedericoVisi Do you maybe know why this (combing?) effect happens only when you put the pass the whole mc signal through the mc.mixdown~ object but it's not there without it? As I understand it the mc.mixdown/mc.stereo is just for channel mixing

@@vojkofau exactly, mc.mixdown mixes multiple mc channels into a stereo pair, and therefore you get all those phasing effects resulting from the combination of multiple oscillators playing at different frequencies

Hey, glad you liked it, since that patch has become relatively popular it probably makes more sense to host the files on GitHub, here is the link: github.com/federicoVisi/max_mc_swarm_polysynth

Grazie! :)

Thanks!

Sure, you can download it from this page, have fun! www.federicovisi.com/building-a-swarm-poly-synth-using-max-8-new-mc-objects/

@@FedericoVisi just saw this! thankyou so much!!

@@FedericoVisi cant believe i missed this.

Thanks, congrats for the super cool update!

I think he is talking about Max/MSP... its a music and multimedia software where you can program and make your own projects... Nodes must be something made in MaxMSP

I totally agree, I did try something with a viola kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIOtpmlpbsiCe9k

+notoriousvig Thank you very much! I am very happy you liked it and both me and Esther were positively impressed by the reaction of the audience. I'm performing another piece in Leeds at the Nonclassical Club Night this Thursday in case you're around there: www.lcm.ac.uk/whats-on/Festival

+Sound Author That sounds interesting!

Is that Max patch available online somewhere?

+Sound Author Not that the moment, as soon as I have some time I will clean it up and put it on github.

:)

Hey, sorry I missed your comment! I don't have a tutorial online but if you are still interested drop me an email and I'll help you out www.federicovisi.com/contact/

Thanks Diego! We will upload everything on github some time soon!

Thanks a lot Marc, I hope to see you soon!
