    Well trodden ground? Except there wasn't desktop software that could do this beforehand. If you can't see the innovation, let me spell it out for you in very few words: the softwar…

    I think it's very likely that he has seen one of the multiple music apps I've put out over the years and has actually taken inspiration from it. Either way, it's not required, but …

    Thanks for the honest comment. I think you're quite right about the "if you build it, they will come" messaging, and the importance of self-promotion. It's also OK to build project…

    Thank you for responding irshadshalu, I sincerely appreciate you taking the time. I agree that HN works in unpredictable ways. I don't know if you were just more lucky than I was, …

    Yes, we're all inspired by other things. Neither of us invented grid sequencers, or music theory. I know there was no hostile intent, and I'm glad that OP is having fun, but hopefu…

    Tone Matrix isn't a grid sequencer though, but fair enough, I should have said the first JS-based grid sequencer, not the first grid sequencer online.

    I too feel a little cynical, because I built basically exactly this back in 2012. Before Google, and before Ableton. AFAIK, it was the first grid sequencer online. The first versio…

    > inflation has been more stable and lower in recent years than much of the Bretton Woods era... That depends how you measure inflation. The government-published inflation rates us…

    I myself feel a little embarrassed when I realize how much is missing from Zupiter. There are still bugs, and people are asking for so many extra features, my TODO list is already …

    I implemented this last night, and it solves the problem I was having with portamento: https://z.musictools.live/#95

    That does sound pretty cultish. I kind of get how VCV takes some of the fun out of modular for them. There's definitely something fun about playing with physical hardware and conne…

    Thanks a lot :) The only thing I find a bit unfortunate is that despite many people trying it (wordpress shows over 5000 hits), very few people are using the share feature to share…

    Update: edge disconnection is now implemented. Click on the the input-side port associated to the connection. This will leave you with a dangling connection which you can reconnect…

    VCV rack is pretty awesome, and you can do a lot of things with it that you couldn't with Zupiter. It's much more of a professional tool and as far as I know it's very well-regarde…

    So you think the oscillators should essentially be stateful? That might explain why I can't seem to implement 303-style slide correctly.

    Thanks. Yes I do have plans for something like that. There's definitely a need for people to create new modules and reusable components, otherwise it gets too messy too fast.

    OP here. Feedback and questions welcome! Feel free to reply to this comment. I also created a little subreddit to discuss Zupiter: https://www.reddit.com/r/musictools/
