Exciting! My keyboard has an X/Y pad, which I have never used, but this might be a good use of that. > As I said I have a gui problem at the moment that is rather a struggle.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but would 64 parts be required? 16 divided four ways still gives you four parts per audio source, which seems abundant to me. -- Kristian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BPM Camp - Free Virtual Workshop May 6th at 10am PDT/1PM EDT Develop your own process in accordance with the BPMN 2 standard Learn Process modeling best practices with Bonita BPM through live exercises http://www.bonitasoft.com/be-part-of-it/events/bpm-camp-virtual- event?utm_ source=Sourceforge_BPM_Camp_5_6_15&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=VA_SF _______________________________________________ yoshimi-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/yoshimi-user
