Cool. Looking forward to playing with this.

Being a dedicated Jammer-Pro user for all these years (works almost 100% using
Wine), an opensource alterntive is great news. More styles and riffs, use them
both! Humanize the MIDI with the Ntonyx Style Enhancer -- I've been with this
one since they made it, also works maybe 90% ("destructive" editing only)
using Wine. Then on to ... choose one: Ardour, Rosegarden, Qtractor, etc. (ex-
windows Cakewalk user).
