What makes a good SID editor?

So which feature(s) do you think are imporant?
What do you find annoying in an editor?

I'm trying to get an idea of what would make an editor stand out...

Ofcourse I have some ideas of my own but I'd first like to hear from other composers what they like.

Try to spend some hours with Synth by Georg Feil, this music program needs your deepest attention :)

- if it's written outside Europe
- if you can edit by placing notes on a staff
- if there is no modulation of sounds at all
- if there's an extensive library of folk or religious songs made with it

I guess an Aussie will need to create reasonable editor then.

A good editor is one you code yourself to make it just the way you want it to be. ;-)
Ofcourse you'll need to know how to code.

lol.

I have something like that, and it's on a cartridge (even worse, they got paid for it).

It can't even save or load anything either. Haha! Music Maker I think it's called.

EDIT:
Stupid-music-program-coders: "Do we need load and save options?"... "Nah!, this is total crap anyway"

Well the concept is ready, now I gotta find time to code it all... ;)

So much to do, so little time!
