Re: MaxMSP looping -



Oh yeah, absolutely understood. Just reinforcing.

The idea of it as a programming language kept me from jumping to max 
for years, since it came out. I was intimidated by that, and it turns 
out mistakenly so. Then I got very tired of carrying around 140+ pounds 
of gear and cables. the train in london last august was the final 
straw. So I guess I have the currently avowedly non-laptop performer 
Steve Lawson to thank for moving me to laptop. (He does stuff with 
laptop at his house, though, I think.)....down to 43 pounds for the 
festival in Boise, and 20 of that is the case.  My goal is to get it 
down to a laptop case and trumpet case....
