as I didn't test Hydrogen,
I don't quite understand this attitude. Testing hydrogen would involve
apt-get install hydrogen, start it and listen to the demo song.
Actually I did this, but I'd regard testing to be a bit more than that.
I didn't intend to badmouth Hydrogen or Lindrum in any way, and I do see
a place for them, but not in the way I work. Which doesn't have to be -
and surely isn't the way others work. Some people choose AMS, some jMax
or Csound, others use many specialized applications like drumsynths and
TB303-emulators. I have no problem at all with this, and I love seeing
this grow.
Lack of collaboration is one of the weaknesses of the
free software
development (peculiarly enough it is considered one of its strenghts),
especially with audio software.
Just count the amount of software synths, audio languages, editors,
and then look at their quality and usability.
Yep, this is a problem. Still there is a lot of difference between
Sweep, Audacity, Rezound and Snd to make all their efforts valid.
ciao
