A downloadable tool for Windows and Linux.

There is a lot of potential for this program, but it's too challenging for me to use right now. The current stable build was very unstable for me. I experienced several crashes to desktop, lots of error message pop-ups, program freezes, and other broken functionality. Also it's difficult to understand how to configure the nodes to get the effect you want because documentation is very limited, video tutorials are outdated (featuring nodes no longer in the software), and the few examples in the in-program tutorial weren't very helpful.  I found trial and error difficult as well because  there are so many nodes (hundreds?) that all have dozens of their own parameters and several connection points, and must be connected together very specifically to get a desired effect. Furthermore I found the UI to be confusing and unintuitive much of the time. I might be able to get used to the UI over time, but due to the above mentioned issues, it's difficult to push and put in the time to learn it.
