Heh - I'll, ahem, 'take a look' *cough* at them. I wouldn't be too
worried about sonic similarity at first, just getting things working.
I never really thought of the idea before, but being able to convert
nord patches would be really cool - people have made some incredibly
awesome patches for that thing.
Plus, the fact that Om can run on a headless/inputless machine with just
audio inputs, and be edited via PC quite easily is tempting.. mini-ITX
completely free software Nord Modular replacement, anyone? :)

Yeah, um, you may notice that some early ladspa plugings bear a subtle
resemblence to certain nord modules. *cough* Not in the same league of
implementation quality though, sadly.
- Steve, Nord addict. Hello.
I started working on a Nord Modular to PD converter.
ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/sci/audio/devel/nordmodular/
NM users have patched thousands of free instruments
(http://nordsynth.zevv.nl). It would be nice to be able to
use the user-made instruments elsewhere.
I choosed PD but we should make the converter general enough
so that converters to other modular systems can be written.
I can work on them as well.
Please do, I would /love/ to have a converter to Om.
It would require writing some (many?) LADSPA plugs to fill in the gaps,
but those would be really nice to have around anyway. I suppose if
LADSPA plugins with the exact same ports/controls as the nord modules
existed, the conversion would be almost trivial.
