Hi

One of my friends has gotten quite interrested in my linuxbased csound
setup, but after talking a bit I figured I'd rather start him up with
something more "easy". He've only done some mild tweaking of presets in
wavetable synths. He's a bit impatient, I think he would rather prefer
to "just play", although he has some interrest in shaping the sounds.

He's running osX (G4 laptop, 1.5Ghz or so), and would like something
open source that will:
* play samples, stuff like piano, rhodes
* do descent hammond, pref with leslie simulation
* a few synth sounds (pad, lead) here and there
* runs under osX
* is OSS
* can be controlled from logic
* can be used in realtime, controlled by keyboards

I think it would be best for him if it was one package, since this gives
him less to learn. I think it should be gui-based to some extend
although I didn't discuss that with him.

I promissed him to ask around here, so here goes: Is such a thing
available??? Or would you recommend other directions that I was thinging of?
