Yep. I also have a patch here that I used in order to change the MIDI bindings more to my liking.

I still think it'd be more productive to improve AZR3, or to build something new out of DSSI/LADSPA/LV2 plugins, than to try to convince some guy to change the license on what is essentially an orphaned proprietary product. But whatever, it's all good, and I'd sure love to try a JACK/Alsa-seq version of Beatrix.

The world of VST's is littered with orphaned non-free products like this-- awesome little things that someone hacks together for fun or out of big dreams of future riches, then loses interest in or otherwise abandons, but nobody is allowed to take them up and continue with them.

I think the case of Beatrix, plus the counter-examples of PHASEX and AMS, all together provide an excellent case for using the GPL for music software.
