Those max tutorials rock..
I'm 9 days into my 30 day trail of the fully functional demo. I'll probably end up buying it. (or see what pd is all about ;) )

If you wonna learn it.. You probably can.
It's worth a shot to try though. Max kicks ass.

I'm a nuts for thinking thats retarded? I mean giving props to people for making patches and plugs you use is cool and all but getting upset cause someones algorhythm helped make your music is a little crazy.

"hey... thats my sine wave he used, I just know it!"

I agree, that's like Les Paul complaining that people use his guitars! I'm fairly certain that a Nord modular patch for processing beats that I sent to Michael Fakesch was used in the remix that Funkstorung did for Richard Devine, and if it is, that's great.

Those patch are based on karlheinz Essle library.
anyone can use his library work for max, it is free.
and most of it those libraries are killers
all the random sequencing in autechre's patch is made with it.

those who can't buy max should turn to miller puckette's PD.

Seems like they've done that, but I don't know about what they did on the Untilted bec that seems straighter than some of their previous work in some respects.

who to believe, the graffiti spraying musician who doesn't share his max patches - or the complete nerd composer who does.....

graffiti, the art of using other people's efforts as a canvas to make something beautiful. hip-hop, the art of using other people's efforts to make something beautiful. both art-forms are prominent in autechre's roots & origins, I'm inclined to believe the nerd is telling the truth

yeah it's free to use for your own personnal work
Not for a commercial use into a program sold or something equivalent
And if you make a patch that you distribute you don't even have to write as the library already includes Essl name...

'those basicaly say the same thing' ?

I don't know what you mean, but what I meant was on the subject of the plagiarism claim by Dr Karlheinz, I'm inclined to believe him cos it seems to me he's sharing his work and making it transparent - which gives him credibility. I dont think sean booth has been posting any of his own efforts - correct me if I'm wrong ? as far as I know he just charges people to listen to his work...

of course this could lead to a discussion on generative algorhithms and if they are a major part of a piece, if the composer swapped some samples with his own etc .... well what I'm saying is not meant as a comment on that type of discussion, simply that going by each persons track record of involvement in the max community its the Dr who seems to be making his work available for people to use, learn & create

or maybe you were refering to the graffiti/hip hop thing ? well what I'm saying in that respect, and this is only an idea for the sake of discussion, is that artisticly speaking sean booth is in the habit of 're-inventing' stuff to make his art. the original autechre productions were mix tapes heavy with hip-hop style sampling of already existing music.

so baring all that in mind, and if that brief exchange was genuine, I'm thinking the doctor can recognise his own creation albeit with different samples - especially if a figure as large as autechre in the electronic music scene is using your generative algorhithms it would be nice to be credited for your work, its not exactly child's play after all

again,
did you read the entire exchange, or just those two short posts?

Not only is the secrecy involved part of the marketting scheme for groups like that (Boards of Canada is FAR more militant about letting people see their stuff), but Sean Booth has no reason nor responsibilty to "SHARE" with this community. To suggest he does, or that his reluctance to do so has ANY bearing on whether he is honest or not, is simply asinine.

If you think that Autechre would simply cut and paste max patches, then you are a moron. These guys have all been around as major parts of this community for YEARS, and know and work with each other often. whether KH shared his work or not, you are, as I warned of earlier in this topic, completely blowing this in a different direction than it was ever meant.

You are purely speculating about the situation, and on the topic of "plagerism" you're totally making things up.
