The tutorials on Max 5 are spectacularly clear and easy-to-use Cycling '74 Max/MSP 5 Cycling '74s Max/MSP software is highly regarded in the full-on, 0s-and-1s audio programming world as one of the most flexible - and powerful - music apps on the market. However, the program's depth and level of involvement has caused Max to be seen as inaccessible by some. Now, Cycling '74 has updated Max with the biggest overhaul of the program in years, with accessibility a driving factor in the new release's development. So, can version 5 appeal to a larger user-base whilst still keeping the 'serious' tech-heads happy?
The history: what is Max/MSP? Max is the brainchild of mathematician Miller Puckette and music programmer David Zicarelli. While at IRCAM in the late 80s, Puckette created a scheduler to coordinate the timing of dense event streams for use in real-time music and multimedia projects. Zicarelli developed a graphical user interface for the scheduler, and widened its vocabulary with a slew of new objects.
In 1990, Puckette, Zicarelli, IRCAM and Opcode joined forces to distribute a commercial version of the scheduler, named Max, after celebrated music pioneer Max Mathews. In 1997, a set of audio synthesis and signal processing extensions called MSP was added to Max, making up the Max/MSP package that forward-thinking computer musicians have come to know and love - this is the product we're reviewing here, although we'll refer to it simply as Max for brevity. In 2003, a real-time video and 3D system called Jitter was also rolled in, completing the full-on Max/MSP/Jitter bundle. Max, in a nutshell, is an object-based visual programming language for creating interactive audio and multimedia systems, or patches. Each Max object is an autonomous software 'device' that carries out a specific task, such as multiplying two numbers, sending a MIDI message, or synthesising a digital sine wave. Objects communicate with each other via virtual patch cords, much as in a modular synthesizer.
Max's 400+ built-in objects can control virtually all aspects of digital audio. And if you run into a limitation, you can build your own objects using C, C or Java if you're of the computer-programming persuasion. For anyone who works in the live multimedia arena, Max could very well be just what the doctor ordered. True to its IRCAM event scheduler heritage, Max excels at real-time interactive MIDI - and other - processing. This technology can be used to control and interface with all manner of systems - audio, graphics, lights, movies, CD/DVD players, power gloves, body suits, and just about any electronically controlled interactive device one could conjure can be interfaced with.
New features Max 5 is filled to the brim with new and improved features. For the most part, these are GUI-centric changes to make the user experience more efficient and satisfying. To paraphrase Zicarelli: Max 5 is easier to learn, easier to use, and easier to deal with.
The patcher has been revamped, for example, with multiple levels of undo (at last!), multiple independent views, zooming, grids and a toolbar. It also supports customisable keyboard shortcuts (defaults include N for 'New object', B for 'Button') and object name auto-completion. Clickable buttons are now easy to create - something that Max 4 users will be glad to hear. The Object Palette is now transparent and easily resized.
