為何採用搶先體驗模式？

「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.」

這款軟體的搶先體驗時間大約會持續多久？

「Approximately one year.」

正式版預計會與搶先體驗版有何不同？

「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

」

搶先體驗版目前的開發進度如何？

「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.」

軟體售價在搶先體驗期間前後會有所變動嗎？

「No.」

在開發過程中，您打算如何與社群互動？

「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!」
