In regards to current software synths vs. previous formats, We all need to remember that comparing apples to oranges is incorrect.
I happen to experience different feelings and emotions at different times depending on what I'm experiencing through my senses. To say that one is better than the other doesn't jive with me. As all types of sounds (programmed by nature or by man) evoke different feelings and emotions, every hardware synthisizer has the possibility to sound different from every software synthisizer and this is the beauty of life. In my opinion, this idea can be related to creative potential. Brooks ps- and creative potential is clearly directly related to 313 music. :) ---------- "Ryan Heard" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I find it amusing ... all this talk about a product that's not out. People excited by something they've not heard (it is a MUSIC creation tool is it not?). Oh yea.. I've heard the mp3 demos as well... about as charming as the demos in your current hardware synths ya? It's similar to the hype that folks (myself included) have lumped on Max/MSP. I recently saw Jan Jelinek (1/2 of Farben, one-whole of Gramm) perform using not only hardware, but it appeared to be very archaic. This taught me a very valuable lesson about worshipping a false "God" (hardware), when this "God" is truly in the music. (insert standard disclaimer here about how tools have shaped modern music in their own right... yada yada yada). Peace, hugs, love, and blech!

Of course you actually have to PRACTICE them. Even things that are 'easy' to use are hard to use artfully. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ____________________________________________________________________ Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1
