coll

To transfer all or part of a list into another coll object, the dump message can be sent to the sending coll object. 

This example shows how to sync data between 2 jit.cellblocks, while being able to have different views/scrolling of the same data, by using either jit.matrix or a coll to store the data.

This example shows a simple way of putting text into video, with the lines of text stored in a coll object. After loading the video sending a read message to jit.qt.movie, you can load each line by clicking the button in the middle of the patch.

When using coll, sending a bang or a next message will have it always output the following entry. This example shows how you can ask coll to output the most recent entry output.

A reasonable way to append an item in the coll object is to keep track of the last or highest index. This can be done using a counter object or an i (int) object just above coll. Then increment the counter or i by one each time you add a new item to the coll object.

This example demonstrates how to assign an index number to an incoming number. Storage to the coll object is triggered with the keypress object.

This patch is based on an example in the Max 2.0 Tutorial, chapter 35. It demonstrates score following using the follow object. For it to work properly, in addition to saving the patch itself, you will need to save these two text files, using the same file names as are shown here—bourree-sc.txt and bourree-coll.txt—in the Max file search path.

The matrix~ object is a multichannel audio mixer. It’s useful as a mixer of sounds, and also as an audio switcher/router, because you can route any input to any output, with built-in interpolation for smooth, click-free amplitude changes.
