# A primitive drum machine interface for Novation Nocturn.
#
# Usage:
#   - make sure that Novation Nocturn is connected *and* that the USB device
#     that corresponds to it can be opened by the current user
#   - create an ini file containing a scene with a single instrument using
#     a sampler or fluidsynth engine + some drum mappings in SFZ or SF2
#   - ensure that the ini file contains 7 drum patterns, pat1..pat7, these
#     can be copied from cboxrc-example
#   - user buttons 1..7 start drum patterns
#   - user button 8 stops the playback
#   - encoder knob 1 adjusts the volume
#   - mixer button exits the application
