All of this could be solved by opening up HP to make into something where you could control how each of the items it recognizes are realized in a particular synthesizer. Ideally, you could have different HP setups for different output sources, so you could mix and match sounds from various synthesizers.
And that would go a long, long way to providing something of great value to ALL users -- My Kurzweil PC2r hardware has terrific sounds, but I can't edit HP to take advantage of its sounds, yet MakeMusic has taken it upon themselves to use my development dollars (spent every year that I've had the program) to hardwire into HP the ability to get specialized interpretation out of a synthesizer NOT of my choosing.
If they just opened up that ability to edit HP however intensely we wish to, defining what characters are interpreted and how they are interpreted and then what signals are sent to our (OURs, not THEIRs) synth (software or hardware), I would feel much better about this upgrade.
Because then I would be able to benefit, using my own equipment of choice, and after all, isn't that the sort of freedom that computers are supposed to give us?
Otherwise, why call it Human Playback? Why not just call it GPO Playback? -- David H. Bailey [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
