Thanks for your insight Joel.
It's hotter than hell here at the moment, so it's hard to do anything.
I'm wondering about a few things.

A waveform view is a future feature for nama. So far I've seen only one
frontend that has anything like that. Is it especially hard to do with
ecasound?
I don't necessarily need it but especially in combination with
automation it would be a good thing to have.

Said automation is another thing I'm wondering about. Is there a way to
do proper automation? Via MIDI CC possibly? Is there another way?

I know those are rather advanced features, I'll be glad if I manage to
write a proof of concept frontend during the next few weeks, but it
would still be interesting to know what would be possible.
