another approach would be to rewrite the playback routine of the tracker as it runs. i was doing a bit of that some years ago with my RedMOD and RedXM classes (amiga mod and fast tracker 2 players for supercollider) [1]. with them i can not only swap samples, edit the patterns, adjust tempo and so on (using code and not the normal tracker style gui), but actually rewrite the effects [2] and how timing and sequencing is done while it's playing.
and i'm really curious to read nash's paper. i've been looking for it online ever since dan mentioned on twitter, but haven't found it. anyone know if or where it will be available?
