Yes, actually you can write your own code for Kyma, but it is DSP code and not C. I don't really know much about it though... That was mentioned in the Kyma/Orville debates because you can write your own objects for Kyma, but not Orville. I can see using Max and Kyma. I don't think that Kyma can do all of the things that Max can do invovling the control and creation of MIDI data.
