We will begin with a discussion of audio input/output in MSP in general. These object files must be in thisįolder (which stands for audio driver), otherwise MSP will be

Resources/Externals folder inside the Max application folder.

MSP audio driver objects are located in the ad folder located in the The limit of how much processing you can do with your CPU in real time. Also, a non real-time driverĪllows you to use MSP as a disk-based audio processing and synthesis system, removing Some of these driversįacilitate the use of MSP with third- party audio hardware. Each of these methods involves using what we call aĭriver, which is actually a special type of Max object.

In addition to Core Audio or MME on Windows, there are a number of other ways to getĪudio into and out of Max. If you don't have any special audio hardware and have no need for inter-Īpplication audio routing, the default driver on your system will give you stereo full-ĭuplex audio I/O with no special configuration on your part. MSP interfaces with your computer's audio hardware via the dac~ andĪdc~ objects and their easy-to-use equivalents ezdac~ andĮzadc~.
