let me restate.
i said it was hard, not impossible to get original sounds out of MetaSynth.
it's definitely a very powerful program, although the lack of realtime
synthesis is it's primary downfall. (which isn't the fault of the software,
simply the limitations of current hardware. although the whole DP G4 might
change things when programmers utilize this configuration in OS X)
MetaTrack is pretty cool as well. (sequencer - like program for MetaSynth)
