I havent seen anything go past that I think is experiemental (I would have complained). Ramps exists in DX and audality at least, events in many systems, unified audio data in VST and LADSPA, MIDI parsing in alsa-sequencer, metadata in LADSPA. What is experimental? I've seen this more as taking the best features from each system. - Steve ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Generalized Music Plugin Interface (GMPI) public discussion list Participation in this list is contingent upon your abiding by the following rules: Please stay on topic.
