That's exactly what I was going to suggest. > I also believe that jsl should be port-agnostic -- if a synth moves to > another port, jsl should assume it's the same synth and not bother the > user. But there's another problem (maybe) -- what if the user has two > copies of the same synth? Is that even a problem? It could be. What if I want different banks on the different synths? What I was thinking is that, if some sysex comes in on a port, and JSL can't find a driver assigned to that port which "claims" that sysex for itself, but there *is* a driver for that sysex assigned to a *different* port, then JSL could ask "Is this one of your current BFD-100's, or is this a new one?". That kinda deal. > On a related note, I've never liked the GUI.

Actually, I was thinking of either something like Midiquest (http://www.soundquest.org/images/MQ10/MQ10.1280.png) where you have images of the synths, or something like a "desktop", where you've got icons of all of your synths which you can drag around the way you want to look like your studio arrangement. Either way, I think images of the synths would be a nice improvement. - Joe ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
