Very nice :) Has a definite EBM vibe, along the lines of VNV Nation or

early-ish Covenant tracks.
It's awesome, too, to see that there were a few Linux-based entries to

the KVR OSC challenge -- it'd be brilliant to see one of you take the

prize. I was hoping to come up with something myself, but while I didn't

get that far, I did at least get a chance to dig in to programming

sounds on ZynAddSubFX, so I understand how it all fits together now :)

It's definitely a fantastically powerful piece of software.
Thanks
