Another Daevlbox graphic controller! I found myself making my 500th custom matrixctrl pictstrip and monkeying up state logic for it, so instead I hatched a replacement jsui: vs.xoxbox.js.

Born specifically for traditional xox-grid style rhythm programming (patching some chaos-driven beat machines inspired its creation) it has four states:

0 off / 1 on / 2 accent / 3 beat

with configurable parameters for each: background, frame and facing colors, gutter and frame width, display time ms for the beat indicator.

Clicks toggle off/on, and command-clicks toggle accent. Send a bang to vs.xoxbox.js and it outputs current state for rhythmically triggering a sound or video source.

As the latest Max/MSP allows the creation of custom inspectors for jsui controls, I have yet more fun in store tonight.
