General Note:

Available here for download are the patches for my electro-acoustic works. All are designed to run in Max, which can be downloaded for free in a read-only version. All patches are up to date as of July 1, 2022. When downloading the patches, please be sure to keep all files in the same folder. Before running the patch, read the individual readme files associated with the patch. All programs work on both a Mac and Windows PC.

Foot Pedals:

Many of my electro-acoustic works are designed to work with foot pedals that advance cues in the score. The patches work with a number of different options. They work great with any standard midi sustain pedal attached to the USB Midi Expression piece or a Midi Keyboard. All patches can also be advanced with the spacebar or the midi note C4 (or any device that can be programmed to use that command). This technology seems to be changing quickly, so feel free to contact me with any questions.

Users of Mac OS 10.15 and more recent (currently, 12.5)

If you are using Mac OS 10.15, or any more recent OS, there are a couple of things to watch out for: first, sure to update to the latest version of Max (at least 8.3.1, if not more recent); second of all, you may get some version of the following message:

Click "ok" and "apply to all for this patcher." This is a way of dealing with a funky security setting in the latest operating system. Contact me with any questions.
