Not specifically, but I do know that it is frequently discussed on 
the Max groups.  It's been done.  Folks also have a Max object to 
connect directly to a Kyma, which is pretty interesting.  Mac only, 
as far as I remember.

Bill asked what Max/MSP is: it's a graphical language for MIDI and 
Audio manipulation/synthesis/effects. Check out www.cycling74.com.  I 
have it and I love it!
