[linux-audio-dev] Project: modular synth editor

[Marcus Andersson]

Hi,

I have been thinking about something similar to be used in the nmedit 
project. A Modular Synthesizer GUI Framework. It would contain 
implementations of useful widgets and handle user interaction, like 
module placement, cable connections and module parameter settings. The 
framework would then be individually customized for each particular 
synthesizer and connected to the synthesizers backends. Unfortunately, I 
will not have the time to implement it, but I could contribute with ideas.
