Yes, Smack was based on Om, a modular synthesis environment. Ingen is 
the successor to Om. If we are lucky, Ingen will see a release soon and 
finally make the step from brilliant in theory to awesome in practice :)

The Om codebase is as dead as can be and Smack's author pretty much 
dropped out of LAU/LAD.

Ingen's author David is interested in porting Smack's patches from Om to 
Ingen, but that clearly has no priority.
