        channels, formats, and /<iller Appz (for win or BeOS)? How about
        opinions of good URLs for beginners?  - seano
        \_ Audio Mulch under Windows is fun to play with, and I've seen
           bands performing with a laptop running Audio Mulch loops.
           For the Mac, I've heard of recommendations for SuperCollider
           (OO, real-time GC, Smalltalk semantic similarity, etc etc).

          There are lot of great Mac music apps I know of, but as far
          as killer apps on windows... if you want to make loop-based
          music, Sonic Foundry's ACID looks fun and easy to use.  Mixman

Apart from important bug fixes, this release comes with a small suid wrapper, that acquires a nice level of -20 and drops privileges. This allows beast to let the synthesis threads run with increased scheduling priorities which greatly reduces the possibility for drop-outs. Also among the newly added features is a highly experimental prototype of a pattern editor. While this widget isn't fully functional yet, it already offers some interesting editing functions. Other features, updated languages and more bug fixes are listed in the 19 NEWS section. The 22 wiki also had changes on the 23 BeastFeatures and 24 FeatureRequests pages and the 25 synthesis links section was updated. Besides loads of bug fixes in this release, newly added features involve per-track scopes, skins for the event and piano roll widgets, major speedups, an AIFF file loader and four new language translations. As always, the 30 NEWS section has all the glory details. Thursday 22 Jan 2004 Wiki openings The BEAST website has a 31 Wiki Area now, all users and visitors are invited to 32 discuss various topics or to sign the 33 GuestBook.
