that's been a goal of mine forever; the problem is just finding the time to
sit down and do it.
imo the success of Live is due to two things: 1. the sound warping engine;
2. the loop-oriented interface, emphasising loops, specifically
programmable envelope loops, to a very deep level, which make experimenting
with beatmatched (or quarter-beat-matched, or 1/9th or 1/11th-beat-matched)
phase relationships extremely easy.
