I consider releasing my Buzz installation since it has worked out of the box by unzipping on quite many systems without problems yet (no startup crashes i.e.). However, i wonder if i should include some of the good VST freebies in the zip or not.

hey rp! I think including VSTs is a good idea. it's ironic that a missing buzzmachine will prevent you from loading a bmx, but a missing VST through a loader will be fine. So in terms of being futureproof, they are to the point where you may lose effects and settings, but at least you'll be fine loading the song and finding a replacement.
The only beef I have with VST loaders I guess is update problems - old RnZnAnF loaders don't seem to want to work on my XP with my older bmxes. other than that, I say include whatever you can that runs reliably.
I guess if you're running it in an install package (which you're probably not by the looks of it heh), leave an option and a warning.

Keeping in mind that i'm talking of a stable installation it's always for the price of unfeatured machines - such as abandoned vst loaders. You can easily run into terrible problems having the rnz loaders somewhere in your gear - believe me

I say yes, do it - but ask the authors of the VST(i)s first

| I need a buzz pack. I can't fuck with the standard ones they have on buzzmachines right now, the machine selection and the index files are terrible. freebie vsts isnt a bad idea. just link it up! |

Dear white butttaaahh, you are welcome to check the packs at www.buzzxp.com
Starters Pack was previously at buzzmachines, but after several disagreements with the website owner, I maintain all of them by my own.

I almost overlook that, sorry. I'd say Buzz floppy pack covers pretty much the purpose of a zipped Buzz distro, but having a extra distribution, being up to date, would be welcome tho.

Fixkit is only understandable by computer hackers? Try using csound (http://www.csounds.com/) sometime. Try jumping into THAT headfirst.

yeah, writing a buzzmachine seemed a lot easier than getting more than a sine out of csound...
and no, i don't think csound is only being used by computer hackers
