I'm not famous but my new CD will contain many uses of Pd
also check out the article I wrote on my switch from OS X -> Linux
Great! I have Linux/Windos/OSX installed. I discover GNU/Linux 8 years ago. If your favorite software is on Linux, use linux!
Kim, the other day I discover your work, searching for MAX/MSP music. Great to see you here. Im new to MAX/PD, as a MAX user, what do you think of PD?
I stopped using Max/MSP at version 4.6.x so I never made the switch to Max5 although I have been using M5 to port a vintage studio app to Pd. There are things I really like about Pd but it did take a little while to warm up to the UI and certain quirks. Other than that I'm very happy with it and have been using it everyday for the past 6 months or so for various projects I've been working on.

Was this patch written in Max 4.6 or 5? It used to be that before Max5 you could just change the extension of Max patches to .pd and open them in Pd. The file format was ridiculously similar. And the cyclone/maxmode stuff made it even more compatible. You'd still probably have to do some editing, but it would still be less work than repatching everything by hand. Max5's file format is much different, though.
PdX can open max patches but it tends to mangle subpatches depending on the complexity of the Max patch -- I tried opening the vintage studio patch and it was a mess
How to connect gemmouse with hslider? I want when I move the mouse, to move sound too.
I know this is an old post, but I would like to say something, please.
I'm non native english, you know what I mean...
Well, electronic music is my life. I'll never be famous for make money doing it, but I already knew that from the beginning. I just work on another jobs to eat, such is life.
But I insist, is not a hobby for me, it's my lifestyle.
My advice:
Think about what really you want and how much are you willing to risk.
When I think on my gnu/linux computer with pd I can only smile and appreciate their absolute freedom, and always music and freedom go hand in hand. But remember, freedom was never the easy way. Think about that.
I hope I have helped you snowball and not being too pedantic. 
totally agree with you. macrogmittrei.
electronic dance music only became really popular because people wanted freedom and risked some dubious laws to party.
freedom and individual expression is paramount.
Thanks mod.
Electronic dance music is like a tribal dance, just that we have adapted the sounds to our time. If you are at the right club (or wherever) the right night, just be amazed and can not leave this electronic-world anymore.
Its base is almost as old as humans and simple, but for many electronic music is something cool and sophisticated.
Sorry for edit this, but I forget explain something about my previous words.
What I want to explain is that the least important is who is on stage, but the experience. Many times I see how people presumed to have gone to a club to see a very famous dj, but all they done all night was sit in front of dj, recording a video with their mobiles.
When I see that, I feel they have not understood anything.
Thanks for listening a long life to pure data!
Oops! Looks like something went wrong!
