castle in the sky." Asking me to pool my efforts with SimSam's author
makes sense to me(until you account for the fact that I don't know QT
and hate C++, hence Specimen), but I don't see why I should drop my
project and work on LinuxSampler.
Nor do I. I have no problem with a handful of sample players existing
(though I've changed my mind about this a couple of times :) Different
projects have different styles, and UIs, and having a couple for Developer
Disinterest Insurance is a good idea.
FWIW my input to LS has been pretty minimal - other than a bit of filter
code its mostly been bribing and pestering Benno :)
