Hello,

thanks a lot for your e-mails and suggestions.

I plan to use seq24 for another project which relies on automatically
created MIDI snippets. (They are created from linguistic data
structures, quite a weird plan.)

For looping, Freewheeling seems to have an interesting concept. The core
concept seems to be rather old, it looks like a phrase sampler. The
disadvantage of sampling is in this case, that sounds with a long
release time will get chopped off. But I'll explore it. Thanks for the hint.

At the moment I'm quite busy with my studies, so everything is delayed.
But from every now and then I find the time to prepare and plan the project.

I updated to the latest seq24. To all the coders: Thank you so much.

Best,

  Niels
