[LAU] +1 for tapeutape!

last night I played with tapeutape for some time, and it's a really
nice application.  I took some drum samples from hydrogen's drumkits,
loaded them up, and had a ball playing them via seq24.  here are some
good points to consider:

1. it works great as a drum sampler.  throw a bunch of, say, hihat
samples at it, and it will spread them across the velocity ranges so
it will respond just like you would expect;
2. it's light, so if you don't want to call up hydrogen just for a
drumkit, it works great for that.
3. don't stop at drum samples!  once my drumkit was loaded, I loaded a
few bass loops in there to trigger, and they worked just great, too.

finally, one little glitch I noticed:  when you go to save your file,
you might notice that no matter what you type for a filename, the save
box is greyed out (unavailable).  just put ".tap" after your filename,
and you can click save.

anyway, thought I would throw some props to this nice app.
