It's OK, but it's more like Impulse Tracker than Buzz. (Impulse Tracker
was the best of breed of its kind; Buzz was a radical departure from the
traditional tracker. Buzz would better be called "Studio" than
"Tracker",
since it allowed you to chain modules together in endlessly inventive
ways; e.g., if your CPU coped, you could have 9 reverbs in a chain feeding
off a chorus that was connected to a sawtooth synth.)
Cheesetracker?

Anyone had better experience using this method?
I know there was a project under development (called fuzz tracker) that
aimed to port the code to linux (actually, it would have been a rewrite,
since the original developer lost his source when his hard drive
crashed.
DOH!) But this seems to have disappeared.
Are there any buzz-like applications available for linux which are as
flexible as buzz is?
