Hi all,
THe best way to get files beteween Pd and Max is to save them as text files (this i an option in Max's save dialog), and then open them in Pd as ".pat" files. Pd interprets ".pat" to mean "import me from Max".
THe first time watch for error messages about "gate" and other Max objects that don't exist under Pd; make abstractions to stand in for them and reload the patch again.
Screen spacing will be just horrible.
I've done this with a couple of large patches and survived the experience...

hi,
to unpack all these files under Linux, try unstuff from Aladdin (close source which you can get as rpm). The unstuffing is not a problem, but these are Max binary patcher files, not the text files we need (Save As/Max text file... in max).
Btw. anybody knows of any max binary to max text conversion utility (not counting Max itself of course)?

Unfortunatley I could not unpack the sit-files under linux with macunpack, but if you rename *.max to *.pd you can try opening these patches, find the errors and replace some of the missing object with pd's objects. But looking at the screenshots of the patches I get the impression, that equivalent patches are included in the pd documentation, for example the pitch shifter via a delay line.
