Hello, this sounds good :) I tried compiling from git some weeks ago but
got errors and didn't have time to report, I'll try again later today. 
May I ask:
1) do the controls affect the sound in real time or only on the next
note? I noticed while playing with yoshimi that if for example you
tweak the filter cutoff frequency while a note is playing it won't
affect the current sound, but only the next note will be affected. This
would prevent making cool effects with automation...
2) will this be merged in the main yoshimi project?

cheers
