Miss Gwenny and I were using Csound and just finished tweaking a random sine
generator with particular attention to 1 3 and 17 with a max fequency of
1323x 5 (P4) that sTEVE cOOK form the C list helped me with she (a black and
white shorthair simply loved it until a cricket flew in and ruined her
bliss
great hearing from you sarn

Also have been composing via fractals and algos hot and heavy here in
Floriduh.
Using Koan and two Tx81zs. Anyone else besides Randy2000 using these babies?
Manual says there off by 1.56centavos but they sound so darn nice

Ed "Edward" Sanders from the Fugs was using one with ahome made generalized
keyboard at AFMM last night (I think).

The low resolution scares me away! My Proteus/2 has
something similar. I stick to my Korg 05/RW, 1200 cent resolution,
even though the Proteus has better patches.

The Proteus/Yamaha modules let you map more than 12 tones
across the keyboard but they sound fuzzy in the tuning dept.
