hi Cara

The worst thing to do with a piece of software is set out with
one target in mind, then add stuff afterwards, it actually
makes for more bugs that way.

There have been a lot of good suggestions on this thread,
if anything people have been somewhat restrained.

There's people out there who have a really strong vision
of what they want to achieve with their music, surely 
it can't hurt for them to imagine a future technology
that will help them to do this.

If you want to stick with the stuff you have and work with
that, then that's great, that's what that "stuff" is for.
