Max/MSP is a visual programming language designed for music and multimedia. It allows users to create interactive audio and visual applications by connecting various objects in a graphical interface. This flexibility makes it popular among artists, musicians, and researchers.
Max focuses on real-time audio processing, while MSP extends its capabilities to handle sound synthesis and manipulation. Together, they enable users to design complex audio environments, create installations, and develop software for live performances. The platform supports a wide range of audio formats and integrates well with other software and hardware.
