[@ersatz_ben]

Thanks Philip. Love your videos!

[@BeatMO]

Begginer to max msp here...your patches are insane i love them

[@ersatz_ben]

Thank you! I've only been doing this since January so still feel a bit like a beginner myself :D

[@jotaro3980]

@@ersatz_ben Hi there, how did you learn max? Do you recommend any tutorials or books? I am really interested in mc stuff and some modulation effects!

[@AbsolutTazz]

Amazing!!! Thanks for sharing! Cheers from Madrid

[@gladstonedeluxe622]

this is awesome! thanks for sharing

[@vojkofau]

Nice work. Is there a reason for including [mc.dup~] ? And where did you get the idea for parallel + serial allpass? i've only seen them in parallel until now.

[@ersatz_ben]

The mc.dup~ isn't needed - it's a hangover from an old patch and I forgot to remove it! You can just add "@chans 32" to the mc.comb~ object instead. Re the parallel+series allpasses, I was unsatisfied with how much smearing I was getting with just parallel, so thought I'd run one filtered signal into another as well. It creates a thicker sound.

[@Rilkir]

So that pluck/stab kind of sound that starts at 0:08 seconds is part of the patch itself? I'm very unfamiliar with Max but I love that sound.

[@ersatz_ben]

Yep - all sounds are synthesised by the patch.

[@jakewrigglesworth1460]

Amazing patch! I've managed to recreate it to better understand. How would you go about pitch or scale quantization? Say for example if I wanted it to play in F harmonic minor for example.

[@ersatz_ben]

Thanks! Many ways to do this. Quantising pitches to the 12EDO scale is easy though - just change the big multislider to integer mode

[@Heshamelfakharani]

this is a great patch, what resources did you use to learn?

[@ersatz_ben]

Thanks! The Max help files have lots of example code in them - good for exploring how objects work. Dude837 on KZbin has 'delicious max tutorials' which are super helpful. Andrew Robinson has good introductory videos too. Honestly though I have just practiced a lot by making patches every day!

[@Heshamelfakharani]

@@ersatz_ben thank you, trying to do the same

[@dschkn]

Hi! Great patch! My Version of Max does not recognise a what~ object, is it an external object or do I need to upgrade my MaxVersion? Thanks a lot===))))

[@ersatz_ben]

You need Max 8.3 for what~ It’s a worthwhile upgrade! There are lots of amazing new objects

[@noahreusser]

Thanks for sharing!

[@ersatz_ben]

Hi - no, what~ is an object introduced in Max 8.3
