I find it difficult to compare any two instruments that I have not played personally, as often I have found very low end instruments that have challanged the quility of their 'superiors'. As a guitar player I play a very nice, top of the range guitar, but this does not stop me from continuing to play away on my beat up Hohner that should sound like muck considering it's a poor mans instrument but actually plays and sound great. In systems like Pd and Max we have 2 great softwares, and I think people should not question if one is better than the other and just be happy that they both work really great. And so what if one is more expensive than the other, those who want MAX will get it and those who don't won't. It's all very simple. I'm a student and I use Pd and Max, I wanted to have Max as well so I saved and bought it, I'm not upset that I had to do this because I was not forced to buy it beacuse of the availability of PD. In the end I don't think it's possible to listen to a piece of music and determine from listening whether it was realised in MAX/MSP or PD, so what difference does it make which of the two systems was used? Long live Pd and Max!

definitely what?
you mean you know how to notate Strad-related
features in your
score?
is not doomed, in the long run, a piece of music
that actually
cannot be performed on instruments of other brands
than listed in
the score?
