The examples were written for use by students of computer music and interactive media arts at UCI, and are made available on the No guarantees are made regarding the infallibility of these examples. I really dig the generative/fft based stuff that I've seen, moreso than the random hodgepodge of video clips out of most VJ's.With the Max 5 student discount putting the price at $250, that's real reasonable, and I do hear incredibly good things about Jitter in regard to the results I'm looking for.This site contains examples and explanations of techniques of computer music programming using Max.

But, I have to say that I'm really more interested in the visual side of things - there are enough audio-based patches out there for both PD and Max that I really wouldn't need to program something new - I'm looking to incorporate visuals into my thing, and want them to stand out/be stranger than your typical VJ stuff.

Honestly, I'm biased toward Max/MSP/Jitter because of the new improvements, M4L/Live Extended, and that I actually went to a tiny Max/MSP conference a few years ago in SF - I got to meet Andrew Benson and Gregory Taylor, super nice guys. I did look at Processing, though, and it definitely looks interesting, on par with the stuff I've seen from Gem. I'm not a programmer to that extent - a fair amount of html/webwork, but nothing to fancy. I've been tinkering with pd and I would get Max if I could afford it.

The pure data forum is frequented by knowledgeable chaps but most are using either Macs or Linux, so windows isn't PD friendly.

PD documentation is adequate if you have an inclination for experimenting and trial and error. You should be able to decide if Max is for youwith a month long, no limitations demo. I would try the Max demo, but feel that I couldn't figure enough out in the demo time allotted Last man on earth wrote:Obviously, the price (and the source) of PureData are influential here, but I've got student discount, so Max/MSP isn't that big of a buy for me.looking at interface quality mostly, as well as ease of use and possible known issues with one over the other when it comes to video output, quality, overall controller compatibility, and advanced FSUppedness for visual output and programming.

If you post youtubes or links, please at least tell me what these people are using (I realize that many of these people will be very advanced in skill, but, again, looking to start off right).Д®DIT: Mac user here, so unfortunately, VVVV is not an option. Some video examples would be nice, if anyone can point me in the right direction (I searched google already.the stack of results was less than fun to go through).ДЄlso, interested in generative visuals, fft/frequency analysis for visual manipulation, that sort of thing.I know that's sort of a broad description, and I know that some people take it so far as to get a doctorate in exactly that material, but I'm interested, and want to start off right.

I would try the Max demo, but feel that I couldn't figure enough out in the demo time allotted (I know I could get the 9 month license as well, but still, if the consensus is that PD is better, I'd rather not spend the dough).
