Hi Damon,
thank you for this piece of software. It looks very promising.
It looks a bit like SynthEdit, isn't it ?
I dream about a SynthEdit for linux, wich could export patch into LV2 or
LADSPA plugins. Please tell me that you are doing it !! :D

Well, I tested it a bit, and here are my first impressions :

- no problems to compile
- looks easy and intuitive to use
- perhaps a right click should be an alternative to the menu (add modules /
modules properties ...)
- I got many xruns with Jack when I play a note and move my mouse focusing
differents windows.
- no problem loading VST or LV2
- a left click to select multiples modules
- I didn't find how to delete a preset manager
- I got many : "librdf fatal - Cannot add statement to model" running
Synthforge (I think this is not a synthforge issue)

Thank you again for your work
cheers,

Mysth-R
