1. Open Max (Max MSP – Graphical Programming Environment) on your computer.
2. Create a new patch by clicking on the “New” button at the top left of the window or pressing the Ctrl + N key combination.
3. In the patch, create a “message box” object by clicking on the “Messaging” tab in the Objects window (the right panel), and then selecting “Message Box”.
4. Drag and drop the “Message Box” object into your patch.
5. Double-click the “Message Box” object to open its properties.
6. In the “Label” field, type “Hello World!”. This will be the text that is displayed in the message box.
7. Close the Message Box properties by clicking on the OK button or pressing Enter on your keyboard.
8. Double-click the “Messaging” tab in the Objects window to open its properties.
9. In the “Inlet 1” field, select the message box object you created earlier. This will ensure that the message box receives the message you send through the inlet.
10. Close the Messaging properties by clicking on the OK button or pressing Enter on your keyboard.
11. Connect the Message Box object’s inlet (the circle) to the output of a “send” object. This can be done by dragging the output from the send object and dropping it onto the inlet of the Message Box object.
12. To create the “send” object, click on the “Messaging” tab in the Objects window, select “Send”, and then drag and drop it into your patch.
13. Connect an audio signal or other data source to the input of the “send” object. This can be done by dragging a wire from the output of another object (such as a “number box” object) and dropping it onto the input of the “send” object.
14. To run your patch, press the “Run” button at the top left of the Max window or press the Ctrl + R key combination. The message box will display “Hello World!”.
Your “Hello World!” program is now complete in Max (Max MSP – Graphical Programming Environment) programming language!
