A little side project I've started to tinker with when there aren't any retirement homes needing elevations rendered.

A cellular tower turned drum machine. The different antennas open up, small metal arms come out and start drumming on the "covers". Just making the different parts before I populate it more.
I picture the larger one as a base drum, the smaller coned one as hi hats and the vertical ones as some akin to a xylophone or keyboard. There will also be some that turn into speakers. Something for the strobe lights too, haven't thought that far yet.

Been adding some textures.

Now I need to start thinking how to animate it. I've never really done any animation in MAX previous. I really only use it to render architectural stuff.

Does anyone have an idea of the proper MAX technique to easily replicate a series of keyframe snippets to match a beat?

Is anyone using the 401 version of modo yet? It looks really good
I am really excited about the direction the software is moving.

As a longtime user I strongly look forward to using "Adobe Enscape" in the future. :cry:
