Dear Maxers!

Before I am officially releasing the Universal Binaries savy version of the RTC-lib (Real Time Composition Library for Max) I'd like to post the final candidate for public testing which you can download from:

http://www.essl.at/works/rtc-beta.html

This software library - a collection of patches and externals for Max/MSP/Jitter) - offers the possibility to experiment with a number of compositional techniques, such as serial procedures, permutations and controlled randomness. Most of these objects are geared towards straightforward processing of data. By using these specialized objects together in a patch, programming becomes much more clear and easy. Many functions that are often useful in algorithmic composition are provided with this library - therefore the composer could concentrate rather on the composition than the programming aspects.
