The one-time-only audio limit was when Max and MSP were sold as two 

different products from two different software companies and if you 

This might crop up if you license Max on its own (which is maybe 

still an option if you really try hard). But if you have Max/MSP as a 

combo demo and get the one-time-only audio, there is probably

The one-time-only audio limit was when Max and MSP were sold as two  
different products from two different software companies and if you  
had a Max license but MSP in demo mode.

This might crop up if you license Max on its own (which is maybe  
still an option if you really try hard). But if you have Max/MSP as a  
combo demo and get the one-time-only audio, there is probably  
something strange with Pace going on.

Ok, I know I remeber this was the case and that I had the similar  
problem.

I often had a feeling that part of the beginners problems with MSP  
was related to this "feature".

It is good to know that I was wrong. Now I can stop giving wrong  
advice :)
