The problem WAS to do with the input signal. I thought I may have been overloading it since i was getting a strong signal which went a little into the red with vigorous scratching, but ironically the levels were nowhere near hot enough. After adding copious amounts of gain (into the red and beyond) ...

I have it configured correctly and I'm getting good signal levels. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your time and patience, I've clearly been barking up the wrong tree here so have backtracked... I went back and opened the MsPinky_MPTCFS 'help patch', selected an aiff file to play, and then set the relevant settings: control_generation = 4 absolute_mode_control = checked vinyl_demod = c...

I guess the problem is that groove~ is not taking position output readings from mptcfs_sa~.

the saga continues...

I've taken the FileScratchPatch_MPTCFS.mxb and added a buffer and a groove (to the far right of the patch) with the idea that I can sample a line input and then have this sample available for scratching. However, when I begin scratching with and/or spin back the vinyl the sample drifts, rendering an...

Do I need to implement some kind of scaling in order for the external patches to work with the mptcfs~ / mptcfs_sa~ objects? I could do with a gentle nudge in the right direction.

Thank you for clarifying. It might be an idea to include this information in the readme file to prevent you having to reiterate in future? I have a few more queries however... I hooked up the outputs 'vinyl velocity' and 'position values' from mptcfs_sa~ in FileScratchPatch.mxb to the inputs 'rate s...

i'm trying to rebuild maxi-patch but i'm confused by which objects I should/shouldn't be using. I followed dlpinkstah's advice in the post http://www.mspinky.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=586 but I can't figure out where to patch in the FileSelectionPatch_QT.mxb? It says to output to mpfs~ but the obje...

It really needs a fade to black! Say, how hard is it to rebuild maxi patch in max so stuff like this can be implemented? Is it a relatively big task? In reply to liquidfx...why do you need rewire to use ableton live? I run it through live and dont use rewire. What is it that you're wanting to do in ...

Still, its a pretty infty program taking it to transmediale in berlin at the end of the month....

you little beauty!

The video output window has a grey maxi-patch title bar, and I cant figure how to remove it. I really dont want it to be there when i'm doing gigs. It's pretty annoying for obvious reasons. Can anybody help?

Plus, is there a way to fade .movs to black?
