its wierd how the overwhelming majority of folks out there in the

world don't seem to feel that this distinction is relevant to their

working style, and even more, whenever anybody does bring out a cool

new sequencer (e.g. nodal, or some of the hex- or octagonal sequencers

that have appeared recently) everyone starts wondering about how it

can be integrated into .

we haven't done OSC sequencing yet, so we still have plenty of room to

screw things up even more. oh, i forgot, *video*. yep, once we're done

with that, the stink will be so bad you'll have to wear a class 5

volatile vapor breathing apparatus to even sit down in front of your

computer. yeah, we are going to fuck with your mind you'll wish you

could just get back to DOS. which we'll run in a virtualbox instance

reparented inside an ardour window, just so that dave phillips can run
