Speaking of complicated patchbays, one thing that might be worth bearing in mind ( if it's not done already ) is allowing a *text* based patching option. Has this been done already for other apps? For example, my csound instruments are ridiculously complicated and would involve hundreds of jacks, I would hate to try to program them with a gui. But with Vim and Python helping me a long, patching in text is not so bad . . . Just a thought! Iain
