Thanks for suggesting Gneutronica :-) It provides useful answers to
some of my needs.
If I had to make one main adjustment to my personal preferences, it
would be in the way that the pattern is visually rendered : while your
way of indicating note velocity (according to its vertical position on
a grid) makes it efficient and precise to set, I find it is not easy
to visualize the whole rhythm pattern at a glance. Not so easy as
colouring the block in a progressive shade of black&white would make
it, IMHO.
Well, maybe one gets used to it after working on the editor ... I will
install Gneutronica and make a more insightful feedback :-)
