[Traverso-devel] Interested in getting involved with Traverso development

[Rick Peacock]

Hi,

I've just discovered Traverso after looking for a free audio editor to  
use at my work. I have to say I'm blown away by the quality and  
useability - the ability to edit audio on the fly and the contextual  
keyboard interface is fantastic and has huge potential. The more I  
used it the more I wondered why all apps don't work like this, and  
have always followed the keyboard is faster than mouse philosophy.

The reason for this post, apart from to praise and pass respect to the  
developers, is I would very much like to get involved with the  
development of this project. I haven't worked on an open source  
project before so don't know how you go about these things - I hope  
this post is the right way. I have 5 years part-time software  
development experience using C++, Objective-C, OpenGL, Core Audio,  
DirectX on OS X and Win32. I mainly develop now on the Mac. I have 10  
years experience working in music technology education using all the  
major commercial DAW's so know what makes a good DAW, from my opinion  
and observing students working with them. From this experience I think  
I could offer help programming, ideas for features/structure,  
graphics, testing and documentation.

I look forward to hearing on how to proceed!

Regards,
Rick.
