Hi Tim!

Nice to see you're still working on the BEAST - I plan to try this latest
release shortly.

Just from looking at the screenshots, which may be out of date now, my
guess is beast doesn't let you draw lines or curves in the MIDI controller
section of the piano roll window? If this feature is missing, is it planned
for a future release?

Also, what are your thoughts on LV2 and VST plugin support?

Thanks!

Dan
