But when 64-bit audio support is mentioned and seeing the differences between max 5 and max 6 in terms of this supposed improvement. I immediately thought of "Where does Pd stand in all this?" I search <a href="http://puredata.info">puredata.info</a>'s documentation and found that 64-bit support is being worked on in pd-vanilla since version 0.41 and <div>
