VART3456: Bells Piece: Just Intonation Research

In preparation for my Federation Bells piece I have been researching Just Intonation tuning and realizing my ignorance of the fundamentals of melody.

I built this MaxMSP patch to assist with my understanding of Intervallic relationships comparatively between Equal Temperament and Just Intonation tuning.

COMM2427: Audioslicer Patch Development Ideas

Now with the sample slicing functionality implemented via the [peek~] and [polybuffer~] object driven subpatches - and being able to dump out the slices to a folder sequentially, my initial criteria of this patch has been met - so I've been looking at how to develop this patch further.







I haven't checked which version of Max introduced the [polybuffer~] object, but for patches requiring the management of above 10 or so buffers this device is a godsend.


Message:

writetofolder    name [list]
Writes every buffer~ in a folder. If no argument is provided a dialog box will show up.
