You have probably noticed that I'm pretty absent from the forum this time .
I'm currently very busy, always on the road for many concerts, master class and other stuffs.
The good news is that I use Usine a lot as a 'normal user' so:
- it gives me a lot of ideas for futures developments
- sometime it is important keep a 'user approach' of the soft to stay in contact with the musician reality which is, I think, the force of Usine.
- I find regularly bugs and the next release will be probably the most stable version we never had.
Don't worry I'm sill very implicated in the development.
The next version of Usine will be out very soon, let say two weeks, and will be an important update.
Especially, the interface builder possibilities will be very improved.
I have also to thanks all the community for your help and especially nay-seven for his great job on the forum.

very simple : I'm always working!
at home, in the train when I'm traveling, every day included sunday...
but for me it's a fantastic experience so I dont feel it as a job, it's just like a 'normal life'.

I, and I imagine everyone else is too, am glad that you're using the DAW you created to play your music!
Music comes first!

senso: I would like to ask you, are you planning to do some major improvements to make usine more composers-friendly? To make it easier for those of us who want to use it for complete songwriting like any "normal" daw? I remember that you said so some time ago here in forum... Thank you very much! (maybe some special "mode" for studio, non-live usage?)

thanks for your promising words
+1 for the composers-friendly thing
imho, there is nothing to worry about. what you do is extraordinary - talent, enthusiasm and dedication is rare in times of superficial business.
if you cut down usine dev for other stuff you need, DO IT. the 'usual' society hardly appreciates enough what you do, i perfectly understand it if you have to accomplish other goals too. btw, master class?

It's funny. I have so little trouble making live sets now that I have Usine that I sometimes lose sight of how many different skills sets Usine takes into account.
Live performance, scripting, coding, all the beautiful things you can do with modular logic modules, GUI front-end design, syncing with OSC or other computers...
I'll probably never get into scripting myself, and yet benefit from other users' creations.
I really need to finalize a bunch of my serious Usine projects and share them here.
I hope your gigging is going well, Mr. Senso

Mr. Senso, please tell us something about that composers-friendly mode... something like very basic functions from EnergyXT... is it possible? Maybe it could be sold separately... live/"offline" version...
