    Can anyone think of a way to send a max-built application a key or modifier, while it's not the frontmost application? Basically I'd like my Max application to recognize whenever the Shift key is pressed, even while in the background.

      Hi,
      I have just tried the CNMAT Spectral Synthesis Tutorials for the first time in max 5. Somehow using this patch I get two different results in max 5 and 4. In max 5 the synthesis is somehow not very smooth, as if the line object is not outputting a smooth ramp. Do I need to change something to get the same resolution in max 5? or is this a bug related to the externals in max 5? My SDIF file has under 10 partials in it so I can't see how it's related to memory alocation or anything like that.
      I'm on osx 10.4.11 UB.
      Many Thanks in advance Peiman
