Don't worry, you'll get a free update to Max 5 and when it comes out
you're ready to go, as you did all the tutorials already.

I guess the TI's USB connection will be just a Midi interface for your 
computer, there should be no difference...

You'll love Max for what you want to do, but there is a learning curve. 
Just get your hands durty and download the trial. After going through 
the tutorials, you'll get all the help you need here.

Sounds like a fun project...
