completely ignorant about smack I don't know if
it sequences but if you do I'd encourage not doing it

so much easier than pattern interfaces and if it did
realtime playback upon note input anyone could learn
to read the percussion staff in about 10 minutes. OK,
maybe five minutes.
Doesn't do sequencing ;-)
And if smack doesn't do sequencing then how
about
something rare like good documentation. I'd love to
study synthesis I just haven't had the time to do it.
good idea... documentation.... don't have any of that at the moment....
What about your thesis paper?
It's a touch verbose ;-) At 65 pages and it's not really that related,
apart from the physical modeling stuff, which i don't ship with smack
anyway because it's not really any good. I mean, if you want to use 95
% of cpu on a amd64 3000+ to have one (not great) conga it might be
okay... It has got a solid intro on drums and info about modes, etc
which would be helpful in understanding the synthesis stuff i guess.
Some more load this and play with this knob docs i think are needed.
Maybe i should do a video. ;-) Anyone got any other drums they want
synthed? Or algos?
