Okay.. I said over the weekend I was going to draft some position papers so,
I'm going to see if I can get that done my morning. Too much yakking and not
enough hacking makes for an early grave.

That was exactly what I was thinking when the
penny dropped for me.
Originally I was thinking of offload the softsynths, but FX are
expensive too. The ideal is to make a total system, but make it
modular, and give it the ability to connect with existing commercial
systems via a VST counterpart to the plugin.
We need to take over incrementally and this is a killer strategy to get
a toehold.
Now watch roland or some yamaha engineer lurking on these mailing lists
file a patent after reading that email, then come around and sue you
later for implementing your own creation.
(eg, someone here should patent it first before roland/yamaha/etc does) Lee
