I recently start to work with Pd (I was a Max guy only before) and I'm a little confuse about the 'scale' and range objects.
Both [scale]s, and [range] are externals, so they don't ship with a standard Pd and one has to chose which one to use. Gem is one of the oldest collections of externals and its [scale] is a very important object, so I'd reserve the name "scale" for the one in Gem.
If you think so, too, then every other [scale] has to get a different name. You can use the maxlib "scale" by refering to it as [maxlib/ scale] in Pd-extended.
Personally I'd rather use an abstraction that is easier to rename. I use m_scale.pd from the RjDj library: http://trac.rjdj.me/browser/trunk/rjlib/rj
There are others as well, like [mapping/autoscale] aka [autoscale]. I thought there was something in 'cyclone' too...
