[maxmsp] [jitter] from .OBJ to matrixout >!<

Nope it is not the answer to the question, it is rather important  
because i can't find the documented answer for myself.

The question is:
howcome jit.model @matrixoutput 1 delivers 12 coordinates while you  
can suffice with 8 ?
Normalize 0 or 1 does not differ .
