Genome Progress

I got most of the basics working for the Control Surfaces. You can add controls from other modules and control their parameters from one interface. I think a good mechanic for how the user will create these surfaces is simply to allow them to copy and paste controls onto them. Originally I planned to give the user some kind of parameter browser which would allow them to browse the entire module hierarchy to select parameters, but I think this will be much more intuitive and fast. This will have to wait a little bit though since I need to come up with a global copy/paste system first. Right now I am working on the "Builder" module which will allow you to create your own synths and effects. It's probably the single largest piece of core functionality left to write, so I am eager to get it working. I'm hoping to have something functioning today.

*update*: The "Builder" module breathed it's first breaths today. woo!

In other unrelated news, I resigned from my job last week to take a new position at a different company. I always find it hard to leave a place, but I think this new job will be a lot more enjoyable for me, not to mention offering better benefits, pay, and a more laid back, small company atmosphere.
