you're architecture looks nice. my aim is much less ambitious
though. i would just like to get the data out into a simple and
documented format that can then be used however one likes (converting
to another format, using in synths and sample playback engines, etc).
hopefully, this will make it reasonably easy to write plugins while
making the output data easy to use without further use of the tool.
so i think the two projects are more complementary than strictly
overlapping. i would like to see the format output from this tool
supported by your library. i'd also be interested in hearing your
thoughts on what information and in what format the output should be.
thanks,
rob
