Good catch Israel. More specifically, HUD works but becomes incompatible with LMMS when we steal the menu functionality back, right? Yes, OSX grabs the menu, and it does it properly (as good as it can at least). Apparently the QT team cared more about OSX compatibility than Unity... :) Can't say

Hi everyone... well mainly the awesome coders of LMMS! The only unfortunate problem with preventing Ubuntu's Unity from grabbing the menu is that HUD no longer works. For those of you unfamiliar with HUD, it is the app menu searching tool. Is there some way to circumvent the movable close button

No, we don't got too many synths. I agree on that some of them could be merged because they sound and are somewhat similar, but imo one synth is not better than several. -- View this message in context: http://linux-multimedia-studio-lmms.996328.n3.nabble.com/Do-we-have-too-many-synths-tp7211p7

As a person that produces with LMMS on daily basis, I think thats a bad idea. I agree with all of Vesa's statements. Also you can acheve a lot by layering more synths one under another. I have an idea that might help with layering. What about making some kinds of "Instrument groups" so that we can
