My own experience is that when you move to that kind of software, the control/command structures expand greatly, but nobody wants to tweak little bits of the math in the FFT section of the PD audio realm (at least I certainly don't).
So- my use is more on the control side, which means I need a very capable sound-renderer, which is why I'm on this list :)
Re visuals, PD isn't well suited for anything beyond "basics"- I've created art installations in Max/MSP and then redid them in PD because I thought it would be "cleaner", but it's not. Every kind of visual programming environment like that seems to suffer from a "difficulty of recursion problem", and Jitter (companion to Max/MSP is very capable) (but Mac-only)- by comparison the PD visual packages (Framestein and GEM) are immature.
