And your script is written by rassg? "Ralfs auto session script
generator", or did it depend on your human interaction with your keyboard?
And later on, when your session is grown to a state were you are forced
to use a higher latency, because you reach the limit of your hardware,
it do all the magic to sync the tracks inside qtractor to the desired
settings? And your script is also able to archive/restore a session over
the network, were more then one host is involved, even again with
syncing all the jack settings?
Wow, great. I remember the day's were I use scripts as well, but, I must
say I wasn't able to archive all that. Maybe you are so kind to release
your "rassg" tool?
