The Infamous mcseq

I want to learn morse code. I don’t know why, I just do. So a few days ago, I made it my new year’s resolution. The first action I took to help me accomplish this goal of mine was writing the Csound instrument Morse Code Sequencer Event Generator, or mcseq for short.

Expect normal operations to continue from this point forward.
