vb-objects for MaxMSP

This is a slowly growing collection of externals made for the programming environment Max/MSP (Cycling’74). Most of them were written for my personal projects – if you run into problems, please let me know.
All objects are compiled for macos (intel/arm64) and come in a simple to install max package found here.

vb.allpole~ — an allpole filter
vb.aubio~ — onset detection analysis of audio data stored in a buffer~ using aubio
vb.blit~ — a bandlimited impulse oscillator
vb.brown~ — brownian noise generator
vb.cheby~ — a variable order chebyshev filter
vb.evolution~ — progressively freezing an input signal
vb.fbosc~ — a feedback oscillator
vb.fbosc2~ — similar to vb.fbosc~ but with signal inlets
vb.FFTWbuf~ — processes non-realtime FFT/iFFT of buffered data
vb.fourses~ — a chaotic oscillator after ciat lonbarde
vb.freezer~ — freeze audio input into a perfect loop (mac/win)
vb.gbuzz~ — impulse generator with spectrum control
vb.gcd_lcm — calculate Greates Common Divisor (gcd) and Least Common Multiple (lcm)
vb.goertzel~ — goertzel filter implementation, to detect presence of a specific frequency component in a signal
vb.jonverb~ — an inexpensive artificial reverb generator after Jon Dattorro
vb.linCongru~ — linear congruential pattern generator
vb.listchange — same as [change] but for lists
vb.listdrunk — same as [drunk] but for lists
vb.median~ — a median filter based on SuperCollider’s median UGen by J. McCartney
vb.phasor0~ — a phasor that changes its frequency only at the beginning of a new ramp
vb.pitch~ — a pitch tracker
vb.ramp~ — a ramp generator which can be triggered by a signal
vb.rand~ — same as [rand~] but with cubic interpolation
vb.simper.svf~ — Andrew Simper’s state variable filter version
vb.src~ — high quality variable sample playback using libsamplerate
vb.stretch~ — extreme audio stretching
vb.thresh~ — same as [thresh~] but with settable gate time

mi-objects

vb.mi-objects — a collection of mutable instruments eurorack modules for MaxMSP (work in progress!) – for more info about this collection go here

- s2m.wacom by Charles Gondre (macos only)
- slice~ by Nao Tokui
- vinylcontrol~ originally written for PD by Niklas Klügel

sigmund~ — a 64-bit version of Miller Puckette’s sigmund~ object (mac[intel/arm]/win64).
