Cycling '74 RNBO RNBO Math Map an input range of values to an output range

The scale object maps an input range of float or integer values to an output range. The output range can be larger or smaller than the input range and can be inverted. If specified, the mapping can also be exponential.

Low input value

Sets the low end of the expected input range. Incoming values are not clipped to this range; rather, the input range is used to determine the value mapping formula.

High input value

Sets the high end of the expected input range. Incoming values are not clipped to this range; rather, the input range is used to determine the value mapping formula.

Low output value

This sets the low end of the output range, and will be the lowest output value if the input value stays with its expected range.

High output value

This sets the high end of the output range, and will be the highest output value if the input value stays with its expected range.

Exponential base value

This optional fifth argument specifies the nature of the scaling curve. This argument must be a floating-point number greater than 1., with larger values leading to steeper exponential curves. Note that the rnbo version of scale uses modern exponential scaling. For more information see the Max scale object reference file.

High input value

Sets the high end of the expected input range. Incoming values are not clipped to this range; rather, the input range is used to determine the value mapping formula.

Low input value

Sets the low end of the expected input range. Incoming values are not clipped to this range; rather, the input range is used to determine the value mapping formula.

Value to be scaled

When a number or list is received in the left inlet the scaling function is performed on the incoming value or values.

High output value

This sets the high end of the output range, and will be the highest output value if the input value stays with its expected range.

Low output value

This sets the low end of the output range, and will be the lowest output value if the input value stays with its expected range.
