- Three of Rob Papen‘s wide array of plug-ins have been updated. Blue has been updated to version 1.8.1; Predator to version 1.5.1 and RG to version 1.0.1. The majority of the changes have been the addition of a quick browser, plus recent and favorite menus to all these plugins. These make finding the right preset much faster.
- Cycling ’74 has announced the release of version 5.0.5 of their Max/MSP, a commercial free upgrade for Mac OS X Universal Binary computers. Max is a graphical programming environment for MIDI. There are 400 objects which are the building blocks of a complete audio application, so it may be used as a sequencer, synthesizer and so on. Max/MSP combines the graphical programming environment with MSP audio extensions, so together you have the building blocks for amazingly sophisticated audio application development.
