That's a rather large "given." Specifically, *how* would one add such analog
ins & outs? Such an interface must work together with Max/MSP (in this case)
and must have DC-coupled ins & outs -- AC-coupled audio ins/outs will not
suffice. Are you aware of a such an interface? (If so, I know some of some
folks looking for one.)

I thought that it might be a simpler language. On the other hand, Max/MSP
has a lot of pre-built modules, so you don't have to reinvent the wheel.
