4. I still want to use MML in 2019, but...
   MML is a lost technology.
   Songs were mostly FM/PSG chip music specific.
   I don't only want chiptune.

10. To Use Audio Plugins...
    I need various features
    - some song data format
    - playback engine
    - audio plugin settings instead of mere program change / bank select
    It's messy to do everything from scratch

    to easily import SMFs into
    tracktionedit in any manner.

14. Configure audio plugin settings and save in text?
    I needed another tool that...
    - shows plugin UI
    - edit plugin connections
    - stores them as processible data
    And I found such a tool...
