|
2014-11-08 18:31:42 +00:00
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
and that all work you have done might be lost at any time.

If you find any bug or have any improvement idea, please fill an issue.

|
### MIDI support
|
2014-11-08 18:31:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The app won't produce any sound on systems that doesn't have at least one
|
|
|
|
bundled MIDI output. Maybe should we ship with a default synthetiser.

|
|

|
|
|
