It has been working quite well for me in ubuntu linux with scsynth and 
the design is most attractive. I really enjoy the separation of GUI and 
synthesis engine as a change in workflow dynamic.

Even though Csound is not working in realtime it still works in 
"offline bounce mode" - also regardless I still find it of great value 
to study the examples provided. Also the Lisp integration is most 
efficient. This app has a lot of really neat things about it that have 
been sounding quite good! It's a thrill for you to post these things 
for all of us to study and learn from.

Thanks for posting,

-David
