Thank you for this link. I have a feeling it may prove very useful for
automating my studio workflow. I have been using other software that
either is buggy or does not have features I need. I will let people
know if this works for me or not, and if it does work, I will probably
integrate it with CsoundAC.
Regards,
Mike
