Re: [LAD] Tux Paint for music?

My son is playing around with my little SDL based drum machine, DT-42 again. He seems to be having fun, but I suppose he'd be better off with something more straight-forward (DT-42 is more like a MOD tracker than a conventional drum machine), and something with more obvious ways of creating melodies... At least, that's what I'd like! :-D This brings up some thoughts I've been having for years now: A really simple, yet somewhat useful and educational music toy. An integrated synth/sampler/sequencer, possibly with audio recording facilities down the road... Sort of like a tracker (Amiga MOD style), but with a more visual GUI. Probably some sort of piano roll. A bunch of nice sounds (I'm thinking IFFT synthesis) with some pre-wired intuitive timre controls. Maybe a library of drum patterns... Preferably SDL based and portable to all sorts of computers and devices.
