Max 是一个用于音乐、音频和多媒体的图形化环境。二十多年来，Max 一直被众多表演者、作曲家、艺术家、科学家、教师和学生广泛使用，它能够让您的计算机实现您个人的想法和梦想。
Max 是一个无限灵活的空间，可用于创建您自己的交互式软件。将各种想法连接起来，共同创造！
对象
每个对象都有其功能。Max 中的对象可以生成声波、代表硬件或提供交互的 UI。
跳线
跳线将一个对象连接到另一个对象。这种连接允许对象与连接的对象共享其输出。
控制
连接诸如拨盘和滑块之类的 UI 对象，以提供控制值或显示结果。调制、映射和缩放数据，以获得理想的结果。
即刻打造专属于您的软件
• 拖入您自己的音频片段，开始操控它们并连接效果器
• 随时随地使用 MIDI 控制器映射您的音色库，边工作边演奏
扩展创意
Max 的音色库制作始于一张空白画布，没有任何结构限制。这使得您可以自然而然地构建和探索那些在其他地方难以实现的独特创意。随着您作品的扩展，Max 音色库会自动扩展以适应您的作品，无论您占用多少空间。
无限探索声音
• 设计一个自定义合成器，并根据需要添加任意数量的振荡器和效果器。
• 以各种方式操控样本，包括时间拉伸和音高变换。
• 使用 MC 对象构建更多层次的声音，以连接多声道音频。
用手势创作声音
在 Max 中，您可以从零开始构建经典合成器，也可以沉浸于拼凑独特声音的乐趣中。尝试使用下方的 XY 控件，聆听一些您可以使用 Max 创作的声音。
• 只需一个振荡器和一个滤波器，即可实现许多功能。
• 添加一些额外的调制，尝试一些更狂野的风格。
制作视觉音乐
Max 包含功能齐全、可扩展的视频和图形工具，其中包括 Jitter。Jitter 针对实时视听工作进行了优化，并且像 Max 中的其他功能一样，可以轻松地与音频、音序和调制功能结合使用。
让 Max 走向世界
Max 提供各种工具，可将您的计算机连接到外部世界，或将多台计算机连接在一起。凭借不断扩展的硬件和通信支持，Max 已准备好与一切进行交互。
原型设计和评估
灵活的硬件访问使 Max 成为理想的原型设计环境。将您的开发板连接到 Max，即可立即访问传感器、旋钮和开关。在开发交互时，您可以观察数据流。
无数商业产品、艺术装置和舞台表演都依赖 Max 来整合其流程的各个部分。
生成音频、视频和代码
使用 Gen 将经过微调的音频、矩阵数据或纹理处理流程拼凑在一起。 Gen 允许您将程序命令与可视化补丁相结合，从而简化自定义流程的创建。
Gen 对象还可以根据需要输出源代码以供其他使用。
扩展 Max
Max 内置的软件包管理器可立即访问 50 多个附加组件，涵盖从计算机视觉到对 Novation、Monome 和 ROLI 等硬件控制器的支持等各个方面。
如果您想要的功能在 Max 中不存在，很可能社区中已经有人创建了它。如果没有，您可以使用 C++、NodeJS、Java 或 JavaScript 自行扩展 Max。
Max for Live：新的调音系统抽象/剪辑/助手
Max is a graphical environment for music, audio, and multimedia. In use for over twenty years by performers, composers, artists, scientists, teachers, and students, Max is the way to make your computer do things that reflect your individual ideas and dreams.
Max is an infinitely flexible space to create your own interactive software. Connect Ideas Together to Create!
OBJECTS
Each object does something. Max has objects that generate sound waves, represent hardware, or provide a UI for interaction.
PATCHCORDS
Patchcords connect one object to another. This connection lets objects share their output with connected objects.
CONTROL
Connect UI objects like dials and sliders to provide control values or display results. Modulate, map and scale data to get just the right results.
Create Software Built Around You, In the Moment
• Drag in your own audio clips and start manipulating them and connecting effects
• Map your patcher with MIDI controllers as you go to start playing with your creation while you work
Expanded Ideas
Max patching starts on a blank canvas, free of any structure. This makes it natural to build and explore unique ideas that would be too complex to make elsewhere. The Max patcher automatically expands to fit your work as it grows, no matter how much space you take up.
Explore Sound without Limits
• Design a custom synthesizer with as many oscillators and effects as you wish.
• Manipulate samples in every way, including timestretch and pitch shifting.
• Build up more layered sounds using MC objects to patch multichannel audio.
Make Sound with a Gesture
In Max, you can build classic synths from scratch or get lost hacking together unusual sounds. Try the XY controls below to hear some sounds you could create with Max.
• You can do a lot with just a single oscillator and a filter.
• Add some extra modulation and try something a little more wild.
Make Visual Music
Max includes full-featured, expandable video and graphics tools with Jitter. Jitter is optimized for realtime audiovisual work, and is easy to combine with audio, sequencing, and modulation like everything else in Max.
Take Max into the World
Max provides the tools to connect your computer to the external world, or connect many computers together. With support for a constantly expanding list of hardware and communications, Max is ready to talk to everything.
Prototype and Evaluate
Flexible access to hardware makes Max a perfect environment for prototyping. Connect your development board to Max and get instant access to sensors, knobs, and switches. Watch the data stream in as you develop the interaction.
Countless commercial products, art installations, and stage shows have relied on Max to glue together all the parts of their process.
Generate Audio, Video, Code
Use Gen to patch together fine-tuned processes for audio, matrix data, or texture processing. Gen lets you combine procedural commands with visual patching to simplify the creation of custom processes.
Gen objects can also output source code to be used elsewhere if needed.
Extended Max
Max's built-in Package Manager offers immediate access to over 50 add-ons covering everything from computer vision to support for hardware controllers including Novation, Monome and ROLI controllers.
If the feature you want doesn't exist in Max, chances are someone in the community has created it. And if they haven't, you can extend Max yourself using C++, NodeJS, Java, or javascript.
