A new dependency on Rapicorn is introduced, which can be found here: http://dist.testbit.eu/rapicorn/ This is a development version of BEAST/BSE, the Better Audio System and the Better Sound Engine. BEAST is a powerful music composition and modular synthesis application released as Free Software under the GNU LGPL that runs under Unix.
