[PD] Max Smoother Audio than Pd?

Well that seems a kinda "biased" approach :)


Whenever anybody says that "Max sounds smoother than Pd" (or viceversa 
of course) we should force him to answer these three questions:

1) define "smoother", what the hell does it mean (is it less 
clicks/pops? is it less dropouts? or what else?)

2) are you comparing with the same hardware?

3) Let me see the patches (ok this is not a question - this is a demand, 
lol)

If he/she cannot provide these data, we should force him/her to 
apologize for what s/he said - not because it is false but because it 
doesn't mean anything :)

We could speculate a lot about why a person may think Max sound smoother 
than Pd and be wrong, or about why Max may actually sound smoother than 
Pd and "be wrong" (e.g. what-you-get-is-not-just-what-you-did), OR why 
Max may actually and surprisingly sound smoother than Pd "for a good 
reason" (do we really know every detail to the last bit of any given 
sample of a sinusoid?)... But that would be only speculation until we 
know what we are talking about.
