Hi,<br>
<br>
in Max/MSP there is an object for simple scaling.<br>
<br>
If you create in MAX these object with this arguments:<br>
<br>
[scale 0 127 0 500] incomming messages from 0 to 127 are automatically<br>
scaled from 0 to 500...<br>
</blockquote>
honestly i'm of the firm conviction that you should learn how scaling<br>
works: it really is only a matter of adding, multiplying, dividing,<br>
subtracting - stuff you should heave learned in primary school.<br>
</blockquote>
I'm unclear-- are you insulting the user on purpose, or do you<br>
expect others to be equally insulting to you if you happen to ask<br>
a question they find trivial?<br>
<br>
<blockquote class="yiv9945903339gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
as frank pointed out, this should do for you:<br>
<br>
|<br>
[/ 127]<br>
|<br>
[* 500]<br>
|<br>
<br>
if you find it too tedious to do the maths over and over again, you<br>
might want to create an abstraction.<br>
<br>
<br>
being able to solve trivial problems like this will surely empower you<br>
to solve more complex problems :-)<br>
</blockquote>
If you want to help empower people to solve complex problems, start<br>
by not insulting them when they ask questions on the list.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>

Another heated moment in Pd-list history.<br>
<br>
I think it's wise for us to remember that not every noob coming onto the list for the first time has a personal acquaintance with all of us. We're all sometimes a bit casual in our dealings with each other, and for those of us who have met each other in person we've had a chance to measure the aloofness and eccentricity of the other core members of the community.<br>
<br>
Remember it's a community!<br>

Yes, that's a much better way to put it than I did. Sorry for the unnecessarily extreme reaction.<div class="yiv9945903339im"><br>
