I'm sorry, Ico,  but I'd have to agree with Philipp on this. After 
spending quite some time going through the links that you've sent us, 
I'm still clueless about what L2Ork is.
Here's the problem: The videos are essentially about speakers, which are 
hardware, but 1 of the 'L's in L2Ork stands for Linux, which is an OS. 
What I'm interested in (and I assume others on this list, too) is, what 
applications are used to generate the instrument sounds in Linux? Are 
these existing applications? Samplers? Synths? Or have you come up with 
something entirely new? Does it run on Jack? If so, how do you ensure 
robustness? These are just the first few of the pressing questions which 
remain unanswered after going through your links.

It's possible that all this info is there, but I've somehow missed it 
(and so has Philipp). If so, I'd request you to take our limited 
info-gleaning abilities into account while providing more detailed 
information.
Wishing L2Ork all the best!
Cheers,

Guru
