7th March 2016 - KVR Audio News

Cycling '74 has updated Max to v7.2.

New Features:

New Tutorials: Video & Graphics (found under Help->Reference->Documentation Home, links on the bottom of the left grey 'Contents' sidebar).
Multidimensional Polyphonic Expression (MPE) support:
midiparse / MIDIformat: @hires attribute to output a two-byte list to set high-resolution (14-bit) pitch bend output.
mpeconfig: Configure MIDI devices that support MPE.
mpeformat: prepare MPE-compatible MIDI messages.
mpeparse: Interpret and parse raw MPE data (similar to MIDIparse).
polymidiin: Output MPE MIDI data in a patcher loaded by poly~.
poly~: @midimode attribute to send MIDI events to all voices.
poly~: @zone attribute for setting the MPE 'zone' that the poly~ will listen to (the default is to ignore zones).
vst~: accepts 'mpeevent' message to handle MPE data.

deferlow: no longer breaks 'stdlist' behavior (autofanning of lists to object inlets).
dict.print: no longer changes dictionary if it contains strings.
function: documented mousemode and mousereport.
