Looking at the source, the GUI appears to be in

have to add a text box in there to type in a value.
Cairo is not a GUI toolset but a vector drawing library. Within the
application it's used only to draw the line on he knobs. Everything
else is rendered from precomputed images, and these are made by pycairo.
Gotcha, thanks.
Hmm. So, no GTK, no widget sets, just vector drawing primitives. Tight and efficient, but
no text boxes either, then, unless someone wants to try to port the thing to GTK/GNOME or
whatever.
I've been wanting to play around with this-- our singer would get a kick out of
sounding like T-Pain for a song or two--, and MIDI CC's would be my preferred way to
control it anyway. Is that on your roadmap for it?
