[PlanetCCRMA] MuSE MIDI

[Richard Gibson]

Hi Luis

Thanks for the info. I'd never come across the controllers editor! Could you
point me in the direction of parameter automation in Ardour at all?
I had tried to use Ardour but the dark black theme that it has keeps making
me think I'm working in a coal mine. I'll give it a go all the same, and
will delight when they release the GTK GUI updates to the system.

Many thanks again
Rich
