Useful Max/MSP Encapsulations

Here are some encapsulations i have been using in Max/MSP recently. There is nothing here that is really exciting, but i have found these patches useful of late. Perhaps the program already has objects that perform some of these or similar functions. I don't know.


separates a byte into bits

inlet 1: 8 bit byte as decimal integer (0 - 255)
outlet 1 - 8: bits 7 to 0 (from most significant to least significant)
outlet 9: bits 7 to 0 as a list (from most significant to least significant)


merges bits into a byte
inlet 1 to 8: bits 7 to 0 (from most significant to least significant)
outlet 1: 8 bit byte as decimal integer (0 - 255)


returns π correct to six decimal places
inlet: anything (trigger)
outlet: π


converts degrees to radians
inlet: degrees as a float (0. - 360.)
outlet: radians


provides a fake convergence point
inlet: anything
outlet: anything


converts ms to Hz
inlet: ms or Hz int or float
outlet: Hz or ms (dependent on input) int or float


rounds a float to the nearest integer
inlet: float
outlet: int
