[CM] Sprouting processes from sequences?

[Rick Taube]

hmm that sounds like a neat idea. i think you can simply define the class however you want and then define a method on 'schedule-object' for your class. your method inserts arpeggio stuff instead of the object itself:

(defmethod schedule-object ((obj arpeggio) start)
  (let ((add (create-arpeggio-objects obj)))
     ;; add stuff to queue but not self.
     (dolist (a add) 
       (enqueue a start start))))

look in schedule.scm (or schedule.lisp) for the schedule-object methods.
