I just finished Breakfast of Champions so I know where you're coming from (but let's not have penis size comparisons in our Profiles ).

Every thread deserves a certain level of sarcasm and humor I'm glad I didn't miss the mark.

Yellow, green, and red buttons are known as good signs. Unless its just custom skins ofcourse

Those buttons are from the Juce framework (if I'm not mistaken)

But that's still a good sign because Juce is a cross platform framework

So does this mean Scope 6 will be OSX bound?

I would say the long term goal, is yes for both/either OSX and Linux. The older platform far outdated the rise to success that Mac OSX had, and keeping up with that platform outpaced their resources. I would also say that Open Scope is a recognition by S|C that they are a small company, and servicing requests by users, supporting over decade old hardware, and development to further the platform simultaneously is not a conceivable option given the maintenance the current platform requires. It seems that S|C will focus themselves as the core of the hardware platform, and open things up for others to develop as they see fit for their own needs. In my mind, it's really a brilliant move.

As I read on the Juce site...

Audio:

Audio driver classes provide an abstract audio device layer, which transparently supports ASIO, WASAPI, DirectSound, CoreAudio, iPhone Audio, ALSA, JACK and Android devices.


Midi:

Midi input and output support, including support for creating virtual midi devices on Mac and Linux.
