M4l patch question

[jasper_ryder]

I’m curious if it would be possible to make an m4l patch that could record button presses and loop them?

Ideally it would be like the button press recording feature in pages and could be used in conjunction with all the other m4l patches.

So if I had a few midi tracks with different m4l patches I could loop button press patterns on each of them, and add and subtract patterns on each of them.

Maybe it would resemble the ‘note’ and ‘time’ patches. A little utility patch.

Thanks @Boob,

@RABID @elquinto…I’m adopting you guys as my tutors. Tell me you’re to busy if it’s annoying.

I want to port this to m4l: To start I should:?..…add a ‘bpatcher serialosc object’…a ‘route /looper/grid/key’…a matrixctrl….make the argument ‘looper’….trying…

yep, all that and also the “/looper/grid/led/set $1 $2 $3” message for LEDs coming out of the matrixctrl if/when you want to go that way too…
still a bit busy this week, and
@elquinto is more knowledgable for M4L specific stuff than me, but i’ll keep checkin in to see how goes it since it’s always inspiring/fun to see what other’s are experimenting/working with so feel free to ask away and keep at it. Cheers!

I have no direction on this one…:

[elquinto]

that doesn’t look like a monome app, is it? what you’re trying to do i don’t think will work…

one thing that helped me a lot in max is the object help/reference. u can right click on any object, open the object’s help and/or reference and get a really good explanation of how the object works, what messages it’ll accept, and even example patches. also there’s the print object, which let’s u print any object’s output to the max window. this can be really helpful.

Gotcha,
Not sure if it has ever been used with a monome. It was something @Rodrigo made and posted in this https://github.com/monome/mesh.

Thanks for the info info.

Mesh does exactly what it is you want, but if you want to build something from scrap, that example code I posted is more or less a functional version of that. A couple of things though.

First you need to turn everything into a string since seq~ only takes one item, so a [tosymbol] coming out of your /oscstream, then a [fromsymbol] afterwards.

And you’d plug directly into the [p pattern] subpatch.

Here’s a clearer example doing what it is you want.

Guess I’ll focus on mesh. Mesh looked like it would be more difficult to port because of the volume of code. This looked so simple I thought I might succeed but I don’t have enough skills at this point.

[jasper_ryder]

Any advice? Trying to port mesh to m4l.

[chapelierfou]

So, Mesh records presses and play them back, right ?
Copy/paste “should” work…doesn’t it ?

[jasper_ryder]

@chapelierfou,
Have you used with m4l patches in ableton? I think it needs to be ported for that to be an option.
