Could one use gAlan with other synthesis components this way? Ie a Jack
controlled gAlan oscillator running into say a Jack controlled PD filter
etc? For instance, this capability would not be all that hard to add to
Csound ( I think there are people planning on it after Csound 5 ) whereby
one could intermix high res control signals between say PD and Csound using
Jack as the modulars wires. IMHO, another all in one project would be far
less useful then enabling disparate modules to cooperate at a really tight
level.
