No printable manual or pdf, then, right?

Why are you saying "not yet"?

there's a max manual, it's in pdf form. in that same thread you quoted I referred to printing that manual, 4 pages per side, double sided (8 pages per sheet) and it fits in a 1/4" binder. it's really handy, especially the max thesaurus.

I really really really want something printed. I'm OK with a .pdf for Live but max is MUCH meatier, lots more to chew on and I would read that manual in my spare time. I don't usually read manuals, I've never read the whole Live manual.

A Max 4 manual.

oh crap, you're right, I missed that detail. thanks!

I can offer a MAX 2.0 manual from Opcode. It is vintage, it is analague, it is in ***mint condition***, it comes with full documentation ( the manual !) It has been stored in a smoke free environment (bookshelf, next to the legendary Notator thingie ). It is ***super rare*** these days. It has been used by a famous electronic music producer, it has no known defects: I am not an expert, but it opens fine when I turn the first page, and there is text and graphics.

sold as it is, minimum offer is 50 USD. local pick up only.
