Hello, BenEB newbie here from South Coast NSW Australia. I am a semi-retired software engineer with a background in electrical engineering and computer technology. My particular interests are digital music creation, recording and production. I developed a program called AWMiner Gold used by Yamaha AW4416 owners to backup and share recordings. I am developing an intelligent standalone drum machine for non-drumming musicians using a pad controller. It's early days - so far, I've managed to brick my AKAI MPD24. Welcome interest, suggestions and collaboration in this project. Cheers, Ben
