Hi,

in Max/MSP there is an object for simple scaling.

If you create in MAX these object with this arguments:

[scale 0 127 0 500] incomming messages from 0 to 127 are automatically scaled from 0 to 500...

honestly i'm of the firm conviction that you should learn how scaling works: it really is only a matter of adding, multiplying, dividing, subtracting - stuff you should heave learned in primary school.

as frank pointed out, this should do for you:

| [/ 127] | [* 500] |

if you find it too tedious to do the maths over and over again, you might want to create an abstraction.

being able to solve trivial problems like this will surely empower you to solve more complex problems :-)
