App looks cool, but id rather invest in something genuine.
Thank you for the comment.

My background is that I am a "real" software engineer with decades of experience.

I have a lot to say about AI (good and bad), and I would love to discuss it in detail. Although perhaps this is a wrong forum for that..

I would estimate right now AI writes 95% of the new code. So if you hate or distrust AI, logically you cannot use any new software anymore. :wink: And that percentage will be 99.999% in an year or so (also my prediction).

Im trying out Sandyne on a MAC. There is a lot I like but one of the first things I noticed is that Sandyne cannot differentiate between MIDI Effect plugins and Instrument plugins. If you try to put any MIDI effect (that is not built in) in front of an instrument, the instrument is replaced by the MIDI effect. Example MIDI effects include Harmony Bloom, HY-MPS3 and EON-Arp.
