Buzz songfile recorder
This is an idea for people who want to play around with Buzz in a live or improvised enviroment and, rather than use the hard disk recorder, want to save the results in a format suitable for editing in Buzz at a later date. Usually when you want to do this, what you generally have to do is make loads of copies of various patterns, lay them end to end in the sequence editor for a specified time, so that when you play the tune with the "Record events" button on, it'll record all the events into the copies of the patterns, and you can save the results as a BMX/BMW file. A Buzz songfile recorder would be pretty much like the hard drive recorders, except that it would output a BMX/BMW file. There could be options to "snapshot" the parameters of each machine after a specified number of ticks/periods so that the tune could be edited and patterns removed without disrupting the settings of machines. Thus one could make a number of pattern loops in Buzz, use the songfile recorder to record a "jam session", then load the jam session back into Buzz, edit it down and add extra bits. One issue I can see with the songfile record is that the BMX/BMW file format doesn't appear to be suited to the sort of "sequential" recording that the songfile recorder would probably demand, so the recorder might have to save the data in an intermediate format before automatically converting to a BMX/BMW format when "recording" is finished.
