Hi Mark,

I definitely agree. Augustus is my friend! Just wait until you find out 
that you can loop your guitar frenzy and then "play the loop" from any 
midi instrument on midi channel two. This is the same trick that you 
can do on a Repeater but with the difference that Augustus does not 
time-stretch to keep the loop length the same when the pitch changes. 
But that sounds just great for material that is not timing critical. I 
use to play with an EDP and two Augustus Loops on a Powerbook.
