Things I definitely want to learn to do in Max, eventually:
-analyze audio input for pitch information, have Max respond based on that: People have made objects you can download, like sigmund~ **also consider amplitude tracking
-automatically change parameters of sound based on darkness/lightness (alpha values) or colors of movie
-improvise live with a sampler (preloaded samples, effects) **I'm told UCI doesn't have a sampler to be checked out--also, if there were, I wouldn't be the only person wanting it--I'd have to go ahead and get a SoftStep** **go to AMC for MIDI controllers w/ appropriate software** **look into other MIDI pedals/pedal boards**
-design my own loop
station for live performance, with a few extra features (pitch shift, time shift)
-solo piece for voice and Ableton/Max
-solo sample piece using only sounds from saxophone
I'll have to see if I can buy Ableton before the quarter ends. If I buy it soon, I'll look into possibilities for customizing a loop setup, and I can perform with voice and/or saxophone that way. If I'm unable to buy Ableton soon, I'll work on having Max analyze pitch input. That would be valuable for future projects.
