undcard's outputs. (jack_convolve may already do this for you, I can't check just this moment) Now when you hit a pad, it should be "convolved" with the response signal giving you something different than the simple "click" of the input signal. I'm very interested to see how this works out (I suggested this path to Olivier, I hope it's not totally worthless :) ). It could be a way to build a cheap, responsive electronic drum kit that preserves the nuances of the input signal. I wonder if this is how the Korg Wavedrum worked? -Ben

aw says your first 2 guesses will be wrong. The app "Soundplay" for BeOS takes a novel approach ... the level is shown as a knob but when you grab it, a rectangular box appears behind the knob and you adust it like a fader. This is great because it gives you visual feedback of which direction(s) to move the knob. -Ben Loftis
