pure data is like max msp but less bull$hit. I love free open source software, especially if it can run on really cheap devices. It feels great to use such democratic tools. And besides that, It's a superb piece of software that has a wide area of use and is generally just good to know!
I use it for many, many things. Mostly for making algorithmic music and visuals with the built-in GEM library.
Yeah PD is fantastic.

Same reason I don't get upset at OGRemix for not allowing chipmusic.
Actually OCRemix (if you mean OCRemix) does accept chipmusic, at least some chipmusic. I remember there being a pretty heated thread about it. The rule was there to discourage those super rad '8-bit' MIDI-rips.

Aside from their terrible website with images that look like they were cut out in MSPaint, these guys have some pretty great gear.

The Boss BX4s were basically this. Tiny little stereo mixers that run on a 9V battery.
Crazy useful too.

OP's about live mixing, dood.
Yeah, like everyone else said, bandpass it. Roll off the high end as it can get a bit piercing and, unless you're using the GB for bass, I'd probably roll off on the low too.

Is the GB primarily rhythm, lead, percussive, or all three?
