last i saw of max, it was just a visual programming language for the mac.  yes it is very good with midi, as it has some midi objects built in.  but it also ran _very_ slow, even for a mac program, and it couldnt produce an executable.  they would have to make some major changes to get me to look at it again.

Max on the Mac can now compile, PPC native, tons of objects for midi, and it
now has msp (real-time digital signal processing) on PPC Macintosh. Go to the
Ircam site and search for Max for more info....
