It could be a good replacement for the closed source energyxt and/or renoise (ok that's a tracker) e.g. apps to put musical ideas quickly in your pc. Also it seems to be a app that could be useful for things you do with seq24 and stuff (and maybe live?). You could make another Ardour or another Rosegarden, he takes a whole different road and so it actually adds something imo. And the workflow you can have with it seems to be damn good. Everyone who wants to make a /'small-jack-one/task/one/tool-app'/ should look at this one first, because it's easy to work with, user-friendly and fast (the kind of things you miss sometimes in the Linux audio apps...) I'm excited about this new approach! \r _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
