Huh? I Don't get this. What I mean by porting is taking the basic framework and subjects from the max tutorial and create pd specifics for it. What point would it be for me to install max?
materials is pretty good or so max'ers say, an di guess the
fact that
it is used as the standard teaching material for max at music technology schools
there is no one-size-fits-all solution. We use max/msp tuts for an optional assignment here, and it is quite often a failure.
That's interesting, 40+ students have a non-optional course here, ofcourse not everybody benefits to the same extent of the tutorials, just like with any school material. So why does it fail in your case? If we can find out why perhaps we can create even better docs for pd!
