about Usine: I played with it for 6 months and have done some gigs and recording sessions. It was the time I was trying to find the best vst host in which I could keep Mobius and do my routing through hw and sw effects via my audio card. Usine was the second I tried, the first was Bidule and the last has been Audiomulch. at the end I decided to leave Usine because ( as I can remember) it was lacking in the user interface. For me it is important to have a visual fast understanding of the routing happening in my signal flow at anytime and Usine was forcing me to put many send/return/splitters/mixers in many different places of the screenshot, so that I had to check many areas and screen corners to check what was going on. Plus, the signal flow was passing through many different submenus, so setting it up was a little messy. These infos are true for the use I did of it. I think that, if it is used for what it was designed ( loading pre-recorded samples in different tracks and play/mess with them) it is a very interesting sw. It was pretty stable and light on the cpu ( at the time I was using it... 2 years ago ?). The developer is very friendly, helpful and willing to improve his sw. my best, luca Per Boysen ha scritto: > Awesome, Raul!
