Again, nice idea, but just not realistic. Most of the trackers (other
than Renoise, and maybe Psycle) are very old. Something like Impulse
Tracker was a masterpiece of coding in its time, but back then, 16-bit
samples were state-of-the-art, realtime synthesis was just a dream, and
CPUs were single core... there's practically nothing in that that could
be translated into a modern audio engine.

Also, if we consider any already existing audio engine, the code must be
such that it is possible to integrate it into the LMMS codebase. This
also means it must be written in C++ and has to be "compatible" (ie. not
conflict) with Qt and other technologies that LMMS uses.
