Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : freewheeling
  Version         : 05pre2
  Upstream Author : Jan P Mercury

  Description     : live looping musical instrument

 FreeWheeling is a live looping instrument built for improvisation.
 Using a keyboard or a MIDI controller, it allows to build and control
 repetitive patterns from a live audio stream.
 .
 FreeWheeling uses the Jack Audio Connection Kit, Fluidsynth, and SDL.

>From the website:
 
 FreeWheeling is a new way to be In The Muse-ical Moment. It is a live
 looping instrument that returns us to the joy of making music
 spontaneously.

 FreeWheeling allows us to build repetitive grooves by sampling and
 directing loops from within spirited improvisation. FreeWheeling works
 because it is built from the perspective of an improviser. It takes us
 out of mice and menus, and into our own process of making sound.

I tried to be a bit more factual than the text from the website, while
reflecting it too. So it ended up being a bit short. :) Anything i
missed?

ciao, piem
