Some cool machines:
-the wave recorders (e.g.Whitenoise, CnG) let you do live resampling
-BTDsys SampleGrid is a fun drum sequencer
-PyBuzz lets you get extremely nerdy by running Python scripts inside Buzz
-the more recent DubDelay is probably the coolest/weirdest sounding software delay I've heard
-almost everything Fuzzpilz and BTDsys made!

Have you tried Psycle? Buzz but with a tracker interface is lovely. smile

It's a great program and it's 'routing' logic was revolutionary, but I never got used to it because you could only see one track at a time.

Here's the dev's website: http://jeskola.net/buzz/

So far I haven't seen a platform that lets me do what I want to an equal degree, suits me like a glove.
And yeah, while Buzz can be bitchy at times, I'll also say this: I haven't had a crash that led to data loss in over two years. Once you know where the traps are, it's easy to avoid them.

i love the modular philosophy, the vst support and all the tracker machines... i remember using the Argüelles(r.i.p) machines (303, trackers, etc).

I  thought jeskola had left his development, but I see there is an update dated 2008.

Has anyone used it before?
I've been using it for about a week and you can get some great results from it!
