I liked the way oscillators were connected, which is a bit ChucKish.  
But as for the interface, as one only has two hands usually, perhaps  
two spacenavigators (or something) might be even more efficient. One  
needs a method to select or create an item quickly, but then item can  
be manipulated using a usual HID. And then, of course, question is how  
to make music, and not just sounds out of it.
