CYCLING '74 SOFTWARE

Max/MSP

Max/MSP is a graphical programming environment, which means you create your own software using a visual toolkit of objects, and connect them together with patch cords. The basic environment that includes MIDI, control, user interface, and timing objects is called Max. Built on top of Max are a set of audio processing objects called MSP.

The student cost for Max/MSP is $250

Jitter

Jitter is a set of over 150 brilliant video, matrix, and 3D graphics objects for the Max graphical programming environment. The Jitter objects extend the functionality of MaxMSP with flexible means to generate and manipulate matrix data -- any data that can be expressed in rows and columns, such as video and still images, 3D geometry, as well as text, spreadsheet data, particle systems, voxels, or audio. Jitter is useful to anyone interested in real-time video processing, custom effects, 2D/3D graphics, audio/visual interaction, data visualization, and analysis.

Since Jitter is built upon the Max/MSP programming environment, the limitations inherent in fixed purpose applications is eliminated. You are able to build the programs you want to use, rather than being forced to work around somone else's idea of how things should be done. This power is not to be underestimated, so please use it wisely.

The student cost for Jitter is $200

Max/MSP + Jitter

You can purchase Max/MSP and Jitter together. Max/MSP is a graphical programming environment, which means you create your own software using a visual toolkit of objects, and connect them together with patch cords. The basic environment that includes MIDI, control, user interface, and timing objects is called Max. Built on top of Max are hundreds of objects, including two powerful collections from Cycling '74:

• MSP, a set of audio processing objects that do everything from interactive filter design to hard disk recording.
• Jitter, a set of matrix data processing objects optimized for video and 3-D graphics.

The student cost for the Max/MSP + Jitter Bundle is $425

Cyclops

Cyclops is a Max object for analyzing and tracking live video. Through a simple interface, you can track performers and users with a video camera and analyze greyscale and color information from the live image. You can use the resulting Cyclops data to control MIDI, audio, video and anything else that you can do in Max.

The student cost for Cyclops is $50
