hi, > I was curious and checked your page. Never heard of nova. Is it too > dificult to compile to osx, or is there a binary somewhere just to check > it out ? nova was my attempt to write a max-like language, trying to provide an improved implementation of a max-like language ... it was highly performance optimized, outperforming systems like pd or supercollider by more than 50% on some synthetic benchmarks. it used a multi-threaded design, but the dsp engine was optimized for a single-processor system ... it _should_ compile on osx, at least it did about two years ago, but it was never really used by someone else, so it is quite buggy. the part of nova, i am using in performance is stable, but i haven't changed that part of my performance setup for a long time ... currently, the project is pretty much dead, mainly because of the lacking expressive power of the dataflow language in terms of multi-threaded audio processing. the best document about nova is my bachelor thesis [1]. cheers, tim [1] http://tim.klingt.org/tim_blechmann-bachelor_thesis.pdf -- tim@xxxxxxxxxx http://tim.klingt.org art is short - life is long Jack Kerouac
