Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Early Access allows us to build a community of creative users. We expect the community will discover programming techniques and tricks that we haven't ourselves considered. It will allow us to refine the language to better serve the ways in which people are using it.

We want to get the software in people's hands before finalizing the language. We hope its design will be informed by the experience of seeing people use the tool.'

Hoelang blijft deze software ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'Approximately one year.'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'During early access, we may make breaking changes to the design of the language. We plan to stabilize the language for the full release.

We're also thinking about adding

• midi input and midi output
  
• clocking from external hardware/software
  
• custom color schemes
  
• improved documentation
  
• further performance optimization
  
• support for more audio file formats

'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The software is already being used regularly by several artists as part of their composition process. Please refer to the "ABOUT THIS SOFTWARE" section below for a list of features. Most of the language (27 of the 36 operators), including the sampler, is already complete.'

Zal deze software anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'No.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'We'll be looking for help making the language as powerful as possible. If you have ideas for new operators, or changes to existing ones, we want to hear them!'
