Cycling '74
is sponsoring our Laptopbattle Berlin 2009 with a full version of
Max/MSP/Jitter and the complete
Cycles sound libraries.
About Max/MSP/Jitter
Max, a graphical programming environment for music and media applications, allows its users to schedule events with millisecond accuracy, create complex mappings for incoming data, and run a large number of operations in parallel. In essence, it is a graphic tool to create programs by wiring together objects.
MSP extends Max's capabilities by incorporating audio objects that are connected to create audio patches where signals flow from one object to the next – not unlike the fundamental concept of the modular synthesizer.
Jitter extends the Max/MSP programming environment to support realtime manipulation of video, 3D graphics and other data sets within a unified processing architecture. Starting with Jitter 1.7, it has been updated to work with Max 5, which includes support for "probing" to visually debug your creations, automated inspectors for viewing object attributes, integrated documentation, unicode text, and more.
About Cycling '74
Cycling '74 creates software for the specialized needs of artists, educators, and researchers working with audio, visual media, and physical computing. Our visual programming tools Max, MSP, and Jitter serve as the creative engine behind thousands of innovative projects.
