thats great to hear!

it should be ok to spread the word.  i think the official release will be
next week @ namm or something -- here is the original post from the xmax
beta testing list:

We've got a little something, but we need some quick help.

We have a new utility/driver that allows you to set an audio driver to
route live data streams into Max/MSP.  Right now, it's called
MSP_Patcher, but that's going to change Really Soon Now.  What we need
from you is:

- Some testing, to make sure it works correctly on your hardware.
- Some advice, regarding the "Real" name under which it should be
released.

Currently, we plan on calling it "Soundflower", but we are open to
other ideas.  Try this out and see how it works.  If a product name
leaps out at you, please let us know.  We need to finalize the naming
(and the functionality) by Friday - so, if possible, give this a try as
soon as possible.

This is going to be a rather interesting product for us.  It will be
free.  We will be releasing the source code for it as an "Open Source"
product (expect this in about a month, after we get a chance to clean
up the code and get our licensing in order).  It does much of what the
spigot~ object did, but in an OS X-friendly way.  It allows you to
manipulate iTunes radio stations with your favorite ring modulation
patch.  It's a lot of fun, and may cause you to eat up a lot of time...

You can download MSP_Patcher at:

http://www.synthesisters.com/download/MSP_Patcher.sit

This is beta software, so all the normal caveats are in place.  There
is a "Read Me" file in the folder - please read it for advise on
installation and use.  MSP_Patcher was created by Matt Ingalls, who
deserves all the credit for a great idea and a great implementation.

Have fun, and please post results to the list.
