        Yeah, exactly. Some people are using ChucK to make a Monome controler talk to Ableton Live, I've been using it to turn gaming devices into MIDI controlers, it makes a great "glue" between aplications and devices. I think that aspect of it will only grow with the Wii interface rumoured and maybe future suport for sysex-MIDI.
In that sense it's sort of like PureData for console junkies... :) But one big difference that I really appreciate about Chuck is that conceptually it handles sample-level timing exactly the same way as control-rate timing, which is a really nice way to think about things. Steve
