>Miller Puckett, the original author of MAX, is working on a similar >program >called "Pure Data" that runs in Windows, IRIX, and Linux. If you read about MSP's history at: http://www.cycling74.com/support/questions.html, you will see that MSP is based on Pure Data (PD). For years, I've heard/read pleas from Windows users for a port of Max. PD may be as close as it will get. The future for computer based looping looks very promising. Ken
