Re: MOTM patch editor questions

2002-03-03 by mmarsh100

You know, I tried this approach for a while.  The problem turned out 
that my rig keeps changing.  THe block diagram approach works better 
for me because I can diagram the patch independently of what modules 
I have in the system.  And I can include (sorry Paul :) modules from 
other vendors.

Someone somewhere asked if it would be a good idea to create a patch 
diagram program for a handheld.  I'd say yes (I have an iPaq) but I 
would also say do it for a desktop.

In fact, I would take on such a project but I don't really know the 
formal definitions for the blocks in the diagrams.  Does anybody know 
of a doc where such a standard is described?

PS - I've recently acquired a Nord Micro Modular and I have been 
experimenting with "diagramming" patches in that editor.  So far, 
mixed results...
