now that is an interesting observation. probably Pd runs on cheaper hardware (like arm-based pdas), but then i am often using it on the HDSP-MADI card with quite good RME dacs (though probably not audiophile)... anyhow, i am pretty sure that pd and max use the same table-sizes and interpolation for osc~ (ask miller to make sure), so there shouldn't be any difference (doesn't msp's splash screen say "pure-data for max" or something like this?) so in the end i too believe that the only difference between the 2 in a direct comparision would be the audio-hardware, in which case the so called "listening test" would be rendered naught. fgmadsr IOhannes ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
