Useful Tools Read Me 

This is an idiosyncratic collection of useful Max and MIDI tools that solve commonly encountered programming objectives. Some are very basic, some are probably covered early enough in the Max tutorials that they may be redundant here, but others are not.  I wish I'd had something like this available when I started learning Max.  It would have saved me a lot of time and frustration trying to come up with ways to do common things that I was sure plenty of other user had already figured out.  If you are a novice, you will certainly be able to learn some useful programming ideas and concepts by studying them.  But mostly, they designed to be copied, pasted, and reused in your own work (where appropriate), so that you can spend less time reinventing the wheel (or doing other grunt work) and more time coming up with something truly interesting.


I make no guarantees regarding this collection of tools. They may be used and distributed freely.
