i like coding for graphics more, i think. I mostly mess with coding for iterative processes just because i'm lazy lol. and personally, i find encapsulation to be kinda bullshit, i dunno, i find it very bureaucratic or something, c was the first thing i got into since basic that really clicked with me. or i've had cool code bugs that inspired things, but it's much more likely going with the flow patching style will just lead to things being broken or adding complexity breaks things that i have to go back to and trouble shoot, that doesn't happen in max for me so much. code, if i'm not commenting, i'm pretty well fucked if i try to reuse it and if i'm commenting i'm not sop much in a musical headspace. i went over to it because it allows me easier access to adding on to things, trying new things out, integrating new ideas and overall more robustness, but i still like the "higher level" stuff to get implementation ideas.Īs to why max rather than coding (well i use gen too) it allows you to work messily which i find good for musical creativity and also still come back and reuse things, understand things. if you ignore the audio stuff, i don't think it'd take more than a day to get up and running, enough to start getting excited about the possibilities. Personally, i found the max side of max/msp, that is all the MIDI sequencing doo-doo, pretty easy to get up and running. Reaper annoys me the way it's laid out, and it adds cool features before figuring out how to fit them in imo, but it's actually pretty interesting with a lot of cool midi processing plugins, you can assign LFOs to anything and you can also assign audio tracking modulation, so by using the tone generator plug in at low rates you even get into some self modulating processes w/o using a second program. logic makes itself the hub, so you gotta watch out! there's that sillily named thing too what was it the the doofer or duffer or something that would be useful.Īs long as you're careful about feedback bouncing MIDI between any programs is actually a pretty fun way to go about it, i think. with the new metapatterns in v3, which i haven't really messed with in depth yet, because i was waiting for it to come out of beta, you could probably get things going just bouncing MIDI back and forth. Sometimes i open two copies of renoise (copy the app). Plogue bidule? i haven't used it in forever and only really used the spectral stuff.
