Do any tech-savvy flutherites have any experience with either PD or Max/MSP?

Start with PD, it’s basic, use miller’s examples to get yourself familiar with the real pillars of electronic music – FM/AM synthesis, granular synthesis and Frequency based(FFT) synthesis. Then start looking at sequencers, but only after you are familiar with train triangle oscillators also as LFOs. In electronic music, simplicity goes a long way! great reading- miller Puckett’s book and the Electronic Music Tutorial by Rhodes.

@amosel Alright, thanks for the response. I’m familiar with the main ideas of electronic music, and have used Ableton and Logic before to make a couple songs, I’ve mostly been trying to figure out how to do the things I know how to do in other programs in PD.

I’ll look into the books, though. I’ve mostly been using Youtube tutorials up until now.

Any thoughts on PD vs. Max/MSP?
