Table of Contents

Max

Install

  1. Download the Max package (soundworks-max.zip) from the release :
    https://github.com/collective-soundworks/soundworks-max/releases
  2. Unzip the package and copy the resulting directory in ~/Documents/Max 8/Packages
  3. Open the helper patch for more informations

Usage

See the overview patch for more informations
cf. ~/Documents/Max 8/Packages/soundworks/extras/soundworks.maxpat

Running the example

  1. In the "overview" menu click soundworks.shared-state
  2. Start the soundworks server by opening the soundworks.example.server
    and follow the instructions.

Javascript

Install

npm install --save @soundworks/max

Usage

In the src/server/index.js of your soundworks application, and configure the Max client:

import { Server } from '@soundworks/core/server.js';
// 1. Import the `configureMaxClient` function from the @soundworks/max package
import { configureMaxClient } from '@soundworks/max';
import { loadConfig } from '../utils/load-config.js';

// 2. Configure max client
const config = loadConfig(process.env.ENV, import.meta.url);
configureMaxClient(config);

const server = new Server(config);

Caveats

Each soundworks.shared-state object creates a new soundworks client, which is known suboptimal, but improves user friendliness.

One of our unit test use 25 instances, which work on all systems without issues.
This test has been run with 100 objects successfully on ARM, but not on Intel.
