Re: [Linuxsampler-devel] NI Kontakt vs Halion performance (voice count)

[ian e. <de...@cu...>]

amen to that!
i definitely agree that getting a first working version is absolutely
key. just as long as the code is designed the right way, there's nothing
to lose. performance tweaking using the various techniques available can
come once the framework is implemented, along with the bells and
whistles!
i'm so excited for a first version of this - now that we have ardour,
jack and all the effects and synth apps that have sprung up around jack,
linuxsampler is perhaps the biggest missing piece of the linux pro audio
puzzle!
