Mark Triant, Dafna Naphtali, Adam Rokhsar
Monday through Friday, March 15 - 19
10am to 6pm (40 hrs) - $1200 + $75 for membership
Harvestworks in New York City offers a 40-hour crash course in Max for Live (M4L) - a new incarnation of Max/MSP that runs natively within Ableton Live, enabling users to design and share custom-made instruments, processors, and interfaces, with a level of integration beyond what third-party plugins are capable of. This full-week, 40-hour crash course is designed to help new M4L users dive into the construction of new devices to run within Live, including MIDI and audio processors, new instruments, and interfaces to Live's API which allow M4L patches to monitor and control application-wide behavior in real-time.
