It is in no way finished, but it's a similar idea:

http://tapas.affenbande.org/wordpress/?page_id=91

The webpage says: "ProcessPP is the realisation of a rather silly idea: A
livecoding environment for C++." As its author i can truly admit that this is
a wrong statement (i should fix it). It is not yet the realisation, but it's
an attempt in this direction in its earliest stages. So nothing is decided
really yet..

What it is right now is basically this:

- Hack some code for a process() function for a jack client.
- Hit "Run"
- Hear noise..

You can have several of these functions.. I was planning next to integrate
some midi. So you can write a process_voice function that is called whenever
a note needs to be played. I'm not totally sure yet on how to do this though
that

a] it's flexible

b] it's still easy :)

I just wanted to mention it... Even as unfinished as it is..
