iCube Max plugin v8.x

For more sensor mapping complexity, use your I-CubeX digitizer with the iCube plugin for Max on MacOS and Windows. The iCube plugin for Max is a software module that facilitates the configuration of a digitizer and processes its sensor data so that it's ready to use in a Max patch. Use Max for free with Max runtime.

Features

Sync iCube object internal data to the digitizer that's connected.
Configure analog as well as digital (I2C) sensors.
Output sensor data in physical units of measurement or as the raw data received from the digitizer.
Mode-transparent processing of sensor data from digitizer, it works in both host mode and standalone mode.
Basic command set for configuring a digitizer in standalone mode.
Compatible with all I-CubeX digitizers.
Status and error reporting in Max window as well as via message outlet.
Sensor data processing: inversion (increasing sensor stimulation results in decreasing output values), thresholds (the sensor values within the specified range are offset and scaled to a desired output range), zooming (set the sensitivity of an input to a specific voltage range), smoothing (reduce noise in the sensor values), noise gate (output values only if they are larger by a desired amount than the previous value).
Sensor preset: make use of a standard set of presets to quickly configure an input.
Sensor data routing: connect sensors to any desired outlet of iCube, or switch the routing instantaneously.
Multiple iCube instantiation support: use multiple instantiations of the Max plugin to achieve maximum modularity of your patches.
Multiple digitizer support (support for digitizer device IDs): use up to 126 digitizers in one Max patch.
Digitizer version support: digitizer firmware and hardware are checked by iCube and features are made available accordingly.

Recently added:

Compatibility with firmware 8.3.
Virtual sensor input - specific application of commands.
Support for Apple silicon (M1).

Known issues
