Elektron Musical Instruments

Andrew,

I have OSX anyway, but are there comparable (not compatible but 
comparable functionally) MIDI libs available for Windows and Linux?  
I'm sure there are, and the Obj-C portion would compile under gcc 
(under cygwin on Windows).  I couldn't do it, but maybe there is 
someone else who knows of these arcane things.  In any case, it would 
still be a pretty large re-do.
