Let’s kick off some discussion in here!
I’ve been tryinging to learn MAX for the last couple months. Building simple synth is cool, but I’ve stalled out. It looks like my local community college offers a class, so I’m hoping to get some more intentional learning in beyond YouTube videos.
What do you do with Max?
I love Max! I’ve spent a lot of years working with it and I teach private lessons.
I think the best place to learn more is really to cover all the tutorials inside the Max documentation and then start tearing apart Max for Live devices from maxforlive.com. Personally, I tend to use Max just in Max for Live these days as that is it’s strength imo. I noticed with DSP the CPU goes quickly through the roof so I usually stick to creating precise, and focused devices centered around generative music processes.
@chappIO Javascript is pretty well supported, including for UI, but I have noticed issues when things are timing sensitive as the code is slow to execute. Here’s some old examples I have kicking around on my github if you’re looking for quick reference: https://github.com/michaelgarydean/max-library/tree/master/Javascript
