We’ve included a Max patch in the Lemur Extras folder on the Lemur CD called
SeeingMessages. This patch serves several purposes: first, it will let you verify that your
Lemur is properly talking to your computer using OSC. Secondly, it displays the names
of the objects and variables you touch on your interface, which lets you identify which
objects are sending data, and which ones may not be configured properly. Third, it
demonstrates one way to write a Max patch to receive data from your Lemur.

• This patch assumes you configured your Settings window in the JazzEditor to use
port 8000. If you used another port number, it’s not a problem. However, the patch
will generate an error message when it loads, and it will need to be modified before it
works properly.

• Before starting up the patch, use the JazzEditor to place a couple of objects on your
Lemur if you do not have some already. Remember that in the Project Browser, both
the check box next to the object name and the check box next to the x, y, etc. variable
names must be checked in order for data to be transmitted when you touch the object.

• If you have not done so already, copy the Lemur Extras folder to your hard drive.
• Launch Max/MSP.
