Re: [LAU] ableton live in vmware

Actually this (a live daw) might be the largest blind angle in linux audio, and as others I survive with good-enough home brewed stuff (mine is done in chuck, I imagine most use pd or supercollider). Mine is working ok, getting more and more polished, but still only does what I need the most (although some of that is outside the scope of live, like algorithmic improvisations guided by user input). If I had a (much) better performing backend and a drag/drop + midi-leaning gui, I'd be most of the way for my needs. If my effords were put into a common codebase where others implemented *their* needs, I wonder how far we'd be :-) Any thought? Any almost-there project that we could/should convince to take a live turn and throw our efforts into? Maybe if the community could work out a proposed roadmap, we could look at it together, see who could work on what and if the required skills were within reach. NB: I never used ableton live, but saw it, know others that use it, and it *seems* to be a time saver for what I do live. NB2: I'm not gonna start the above mentioned project myself. There are too many areas (esp gui programming) that I know nothing about. -- Atte http://atte.dk http://modlys.dk http://virb.com/atte
