Buzz-like interface. The only thing it can't do at the moment that you are doing is play puredata patches, although you could use the dssi-vst plugin and load the pdvst I suppose. I think the author is trying to move away from the dssi plugin idea though, so that songs written in aldrin can be shared between people in the community without the searching for plugins problem that beset Buzz.
