Does anyone have any insight on the software on the screen to the left of the Fairlight in this image? It looks like a software implementation of his (Michel Geiss) legendary Matrix Sequencer (image 9 of 10 in the set pointed to below):

Re: Jarre Matrix sequencer in software?
I've seen this (or something VERY similar) before. I'm racking my brains out trying to remember, although I'm pretty sure it was something to do with Reaktor. Maybe it was part of a previous JMJ interview.
You do realise this is going to nag me all day now, don't you
EDIT - Definitely not Reaktor
Although it wouldn't take too much work to emulate the original Geiss Matrisequencer, but I can't find enough "in-depth" details about it to do it right.
Jarre's a big Ableton user, maybe it was built for him using Max4Live?

Nice work pulling out the screen pic! It does look like Max/ MSP buttons alright.
