I've been trying to dig my way back to here all day.

Hah, that's lucky!

Hrm.  I guess I hadn't tested that beyond hearing noises on the configuration 
page, because recording itself was broken until quite recently.

That sucks.  I have no idea off hand how to fix it.  Hopefully Chris does.

Pitch hint is some kind of status bar dongle we probably just haven't hooked 
back up yet.  Adjust menu, same thing, I think probably without looking.  No 
triplets may just be more of the same too, actually.

There's quite a lot of fairly easy cut and paste rework to do, and honestly I 
was hoping once I did a big glob of it, some of these loose people who don't 
have any current projects might jump in to help finish it up.  Oh well.  I'll 
grind through all this other stuff and get back onto that eventually.

Just for the record, I burned seven hours on Rosegarden today, and nine at my 
day job.

My family is very patient.

I can't test this at the moment, but I bet it turns out to be true, and I bet 
it's because the device ordering has changed in Thorn, as a weird side effect 
of I don't quite know what.  Hopefully I just have to shuffle the combo box 
indices around or something.

I hope so too for your sake, but unfortunately this one isn't anything I'm 
likely to even attempt unless things are looking quite desperate.

That makes a whole lot of us.  :)
