>
>Paris, France (July 20, 1999) -- IRCAM announces the distribution of jMax,
>its software environment for music performance and real time digital audio
>processing, as free software under the GNU General Public License.
>
>Since its first public release for the SGI and Linux platforms in early
>1999, jMax has reached several hundred users that expressed high interest
>in
>the product and its development. This interest, added to the rapid growth
>of
>the Linux operating system and the effectiveness of the open development
>model, created the conditions for an opening of the jMax development.
>
>By releasing jMax under GNU's General Public License, IRCAM brings a key
>contribution to the computer music community and to the adoption of Linux
>for the multimedia market.
>
>jMax is the new generation of real time systems at IRCAM, designed to
>replace the Ircam Signal Processing Workstation. Based on a client/server
>architecture, wherein the two components are the C written real-time
>engine
>already known as FTS and a Java graphical user interface, jMax features a
>high portability level.
>
>jMax is currently supported on SGI workstations and on Linux for
>Intel-compatible processors. Porting to other platforms are under
>development, including Alpha-Linux, Linux-PPC, Solaris, Apple MacOS X and
>Microsoft's Windows. Compatibilities with Max/MSP
>(IRCAM/Opcode/Cycling'74)
>currently running on MacOS will be pursued.
>
>Support, documentation, tutorials, CDROMs and musical applications for
>jMax
>will be provided by the IRCAM Forum, the IRCAM user group accessible via a
>yearly subscription. IRCAM Forum can be reached at
>http://www.ircam.fr/departements/valorisation/forum/index-e.html.
>
>jMax is currently being developed at IRCAM by the Real Time Systems team,
>lead by FranÁois DÈchelle, with Maurizio de Cecco, Enzo Maggi and Norbert
>Schnell.
>
>jMax is currently used in concert and in studio, at Ircam and on
>international tours, for productions featuring real time audio synthesis
>and
>processing, as well as for virtual reality interactive installations that
>combine image and sound synthesis.

>IRCAM (Institut de Recherche et de Coordination Acoustique/ Musique) is a
>non-profit organization associated with the Georges Pompidou National
>Center
>of Art and Culture, Paris, France. Since its foundation in 1969 by the
>French composer and conductor Pierre Boulez, IRCAM has always been a
>pioneer
>in designing real time systems for live interaction between instruments
>and
>computers. The first generation of systems lead in 1981 to the 4X
>processor,
>designed at IRCAM by Giuseppe Di Giugno. In the 80s, Miller Puckette
>started
>developing at IRCAM the Max software, a visual language that brought a new
>concept in musical interaction. Max, licensed to Opcode Systems Inc., CA,
>has reached a wide audience in the computer music community. The IRCAM
>Signal Processing Workstation, designed in 1989 at IRCAM by a team leaded
>by
>Eric Lindemann, has been adopted by a large number of composers as a
>choice
>platform for real time interactive musical pieces.
