Question: Why only oscillators and ADSR in ReaSynth? Why don't you include filters and LFOs and other things which are in typical synthesizer? Not enough time for it?

    Heh, a few inaccuracies there but not bad, and it's a subset obviously... and no mention of everrybody else involved, without whom REAPER would be still 2.x-ish :)

Question: As a city cyclist, do you think something like the rohloff speedhub would pay of due to low maintenance and ability to shift gears while standing at traffic lights or is it too expensive for the everyday trusty bicycle? (Or are you just more into derailleur gears in general?)

    Those are nice, I've used them on citibikes and they are cool. 1.5-5% loss is something to consider, though. I mostly ride a single speed with a freewheel (48:20 ratio on 700c wheels which isn't super fast but fast enough), which is also low maintenance...
