AES • New York, NY • October 5, 2007--Cycling '74 today announced Version 5.0 of its Max/MSP media development tools. This version represents a new era of Max programming, with a completely redesigned multi-processing kernel and a streamlined development environment built on a platform-independent foundation. With a new patcher interface, searchable database of objects and examples, integrated documentation and new tutorials, the new Max user will find a smoother learning curve while experienced users will see improved productivity.

CEO David Zicarelli remarked: "In almost twenty years of working on this software, there's never been anything close to the transformation we're undertaking. This is Max for the next twenty years." Demo movies showing off the new interface have been posted on the cycling74.com web site today, and the company plans a regular series of articles and videos covering the new features over the next few months.

In addition to a modern infrastructure designed to support today's multi-core processors and tomorrow's operating systems, Max 5 features a stylish new UI intended to aid in the expression of complex ideas in a fluid manner. As a result, Max's pioneering concept of interactive graphical programming has been pushed forward in numerous ways large and small. A prime example is presentation mode, which de-couples programming logic from user interface construction, allowing clearer patches as well as richer user interfaces.

I guess now I can quit reading the online manual and finally buy the thing. I had been holding off until the announcement so I wouldn't be buying the soon-to-be-outdated version, which is what I did with Live.

Now, whether to get it for the XP laptop or the OSX laptop. It'd be nice if they adopted Live's two-license setup.

If you have an iLok dongle, you can put your Max license on it, and move it between machines.

I've installed Max on numerous PCs. At one time I had it on 3 or 4 personal systems. As long as you explain to them why you need another registration or you ask them to 'deactivate' unused registrations, they'll give you another.
