Finding Objects in Max

Finding the Right Max Object

There are several ways to find an object that you might need for your Max patch. The easiest method is to use the Search Function to find an object using arbitrary text.

You can also find a list of all Max objects in functional groups using the Max Objects by Function page. If you want to just see all the Max objects in alphabetical order, you might prefer the Max Objects A-Z page.

The Max Object Thesaurus helps you find objects (in Max, MSP and Jitter) based on some key words and phrases. This is a great place to find objects based on what you wish to accomplish.

In addition, you can often find help on our website, in our user forum and in the Max Tutorials.
