I would love to try this, if possible.

@samdean, you've chosen not to accept private messages? I'll need an email address to send you the invitation.

I have updated the settings. Sorry about that. Thanks.

I stumbled on this as someone owning one of those machines told me about it.
Any chance this could run in Max4Live? and if not, any how can i join the yahoo group?

Is there any chance of getting an invite to join?

I just spent the last hour trying to figure out if this project is still alive or dead in the water, after coming across posts from a few years back..and a few YouTube vids. Glad to see this is still evolving, as it's something which is very much needed.

Hope to hear back from you soon on this. :)

By the way. Back in the 1980s there was a Zyklus MPS Midi Performance System device. See a pic here:

Are you in any way associated with the original Zyklus ?
hmmm...a question i had sometime ago. still want one. if i compiled a version in gen, what would the creative rights issues be?

The only things that are purely Max in Improvisor are its GUI, timing objects, midi in/out objects and some few routing objects. 90% is Java I guess. The reason for using Java is simple: 1) Improvisor is too complex to be a pure Max program and 2) the language C was not an option because the learning curve was too high for me back then. Keep in mind, I had to learn Java from the start when developing Improvisor. Programming OTOH was not new, years of Delphi under my belt. If Delphi only had some more midi and timing components as Max have, I never touched Max again, at least not for a program like Improvisor.

Improvisor doesn't use [seq] or [mtr] Max objects; it's all done using object arrays being scanned in Java when the appropriate tick arrives. Reading and writing files are also Java, only the dialog windows are provided by Max. Harmonizer code is Java. As a rule of thumb, everything that could be done in Java, is Java. The main reason for this is I'm more comfortable working with an IDE like Eclipse then patching objects in Max.

Pitch bend and other controller data are excluded from sequencing because I was afraid that my scanning routine was not fast enough to handle 32 sequences for example full with pitch-wheel data. It's funny however that as the moment we speak I'm rewriting this part of code so you can record and loop pitch bend and controller data. There will be one more update of the current version after all.

Import/export midi files is something I want to try on the next version.
have there been any considerations of translating the java into c++? faster scanning? will the java be included in the file set released?
