We discussed this a bit back, trying to decide if it's worth it or not, with Hydrogen already a good drum editor, and with our ability to import Hydrogen patterns and... Whatever the thing that assembles the patterns into something is. Songs? I think we can import Hydrogen songs. I haven't actually checked into that yet, and it's a loose end I need to tie up. There was talk of a special drum clef, and of doing drum maps to map out keys to particular drums. There's all kinds of stuff we could do, and I'm mildly interested. I really don't use Hydrogen for much except making noise, and I'd rather do it with Rosegarden. Then again, I can hear Rich screaming about monolithic applications and redundant effort already. So I'd say the door is open a crack, but not very far. For my own part, I'm looking at wanting to improve mid-composition program changes, some key notation features (that NoteEdit has, and we don't), and better audio file management. That's about it for tall orders I can think of really. Rosegarden is pretty satisfactory to use already, and I did use the same buggy version of Cakewalk for 10 years. I'm quickly reaching a point where I'm not all that interested in trying to change things because what we've got is really pretty damn good. I think the core developers got there a long time ago. -- Michael McIntyre ---- Silvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux fanatic, and certified Geek; registered Linux user #243621 http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/5407/ http://rosegarden.sourceforge.net/tutorial/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
