Max MSP Plug-In
With the Max MSP plug-in, you can control all functions of the Sonic Wave I
processor through Max MSP. This allows you to program your own interface and
link the control to different peripherals like joysticks or tracking systems.
Notice: This software is available for MaxMSP version 5 and 6 on OSX computers
with Intel Processors.
This section gives a brief overview on controlling the Sonic Wave I processor with
the software Max MSP.
The Max MSP patch „wfs.sourcesCtrl.maxpat“ allows for the control of system
parameters such as angle and distance of all virtual sound sources. The user can set
the designated parameter within a Max MSP patch at any time. This patch relies on
the wfs.zsonicnet.mxo object that has been developed in collaboration with IRCAM
(http://www.ircam.fr).
Installation of the Max MSP Object
The Max MSP plugin is available as a so-called external object for Max MSP. To be
integrated, follow the outlined steps:
Extract the file “wfs-3.4.2-base.zip” into any folder of your computer.
Add the “wfs-3.4.2-base” folder to the Max MSP search path (via Options/File
Preferences), so that the “wfs.zsonicnet.mxo” object can be found by the
“wfs.sourcesCtrl.maxpat” patch or by custom patches.
The “wfs.sourcesCtrl.maxpat” patches located into the subfolder “abstractions”.
