Actually, what I need to do first is release the new LSynth.  The issue that is
holding me up is that I no longer want to ship synthesis specific parts (not

allow it to be adjusted with a param on the SYNTH BEGIN line?

I was hoping that bendiness was based on hose type, but alas I think it is not.

Might you want it on a segment by segment basis?  I'll have to figure out what
