RE: what I think is a cool idea for the EDP

I have an SP-808 to perform these functions, which I intend to synch an EDP
to, if I ever get my hands on one...

You can do it with the present version with MIDIdump, but it takes
about 20 times the time of the sound (yes, MIDI is slow...).
We certainly want a faster port in the future, maybe even to connect
a HD directly...

I personally dont like to go on stage with prerecorded material.
While in the beginning, I was concerned to stamp my philosophy as
much as possible onto products I developp, now I am happy if the
things I find important are still there, and try to include as many
features others may want.
