AETHERPHON, global theremin family

Thanks, glad this is clarified!!

Yes, that makes a lot of sense.  Max/MSP is quite powerful.

At the risk of making further gross errors, I can't help but mention that 
there is a similar program that is freeware called csound:

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/csound

that might be a good option for some.  There are no doubt many other 
varied options for capture and analysis, too.

Best,
Ann
