I don't think activity necessarily means re-writing instrument libraries
for which there already exists code for. Maybe collecting some synthesis
code together would be more productive? Brainstorming about the various
synthesis elements in different instrument patch formats and how to
program these and link them together when it comes to actually
synthesizing them. From my point of view, the instrument loading/saving
library (whatever it happens to become) should have its objects separate
from what the synthesizer is actively working on. This is because in an
editing environment the patch objects will be accessed from GUI elements
and other things that are inherently slow and not as real time critical
as the synthesis output. So other thoughts about what process occurs to
get the relevent parameters from the patch objects to the synthesis
elements, etc. Anyways, just blabbing, and I did kind of want that
previous email thread to end, so...
