Re: Why I think "Max for Live" is huge

[andy butler <akbutler@tiscali.co.uk>]

I snipped out the most interesting bit:-


"In Music-N terms, Max supplies the orchestra while Live holds the score. 
The "score" however is not just MIDI notes. It can be audio, triggered and 
manipulated in all the sophisticated ways Live provides. Or it can be 
automation, drawn inside Live and fed to Max as sample-accurate audio-rate 
ramps if you like. It's equally possible to work the other way, where Max 
represents the score and Live represents the orchestra."


wonder what he imagines we understand by "Music-N" :-)

Anyway, what I find interesting is the "Max represents the score bit".
Does that mean that Max gets to play with softsynths and fx from Live
....or does it mean that max gets to trigger playback, recording etc?
....does Max get to control the tempo of Live ?
