[quote="dpcon Now wait a minute. I went to California State University at Long Beach (kind of like your Liverpool Paul - harbor town) doesn't that count for something? Someone has got to be impressed with that - please...P.S. Paul, any good musicians ever come out of Liverpool?
Hugely impressed Dave!
At the risk of making Bill catatonic, I seem to remember a band from Liverpool... Freddie & the Dreamers?
I'm not even going to mention the college I went to out of deference to Dave. [6]
I see alot of you are from the UK...
That makes about as much difference as you not coming from the USA. Call it a hunch.
What point are you trying to make here? I will ask you for the third and final time. Do you use the VSL library, and if you do, what do you use it for? If you can't answer a simple question, I'm going to have to assume you are in fact a dullard.

nafai et al, let me silently step in with some comments ...
i see the same shortsighted view here as in other spheres - it's not about what it might destroy, it's about what it might create. times are changing - rapidly, continously - if you don't go with it, you're lost. on the other hand it doesn't say you should not conserve the real values. that leaves us with the question - what are the real values.
unrelated possibly but not irrelevant. this fits to all spheres ....

Wow,
Very important artists.
Do they have any VSL demos here I can give a listen to?

P.S. mathis - always my pleasure.

One other thing, and this is not for Nafai23 whom I no longer will respond to but for any respectable musician who might read this -
We are not trying to put classical musicians out of work! I am one. All my friends are also. We make no money these days, so we want to start making a little. Samples give us musicians another way of making money, not depriving them - I am recording right now a solo violin piece using both samples and a live player. The idea that sampling classical musicians puts them out of work is ludicrous. They were already put out of work, long ago. We are now trying to recover, and things including sampling are helping us. Symphony orchestras are having problems because they can't get audiences who want Britney Spears instead of Beethoven, not because of brilliant sample orchestral recordings like Andy's, eager to capture every nuance of Debussy. God bless every person who ever does that!

Absolutely William! You tell them.
Besides, musicians are just composer's slaves! [8o|]
I'll be glad when I can do it all myself ... THE RIGHT WAY!

Good Lord. So was my mother. Do think they're related? [I]
Oh, for God sake Nicks@selectionofvegetables.com, Evan Evans was born on Alpha Centauri in 1847, but he's still an American! [6]

Heavens!
An entire page of retorts to my silly post.
Look, if Liz Taylor feels bloated she ought to take something for it.
Alpha Centauri is in this galaxy so Evan could not possibly have been born there: ridiculous notion.
Thanks to the Tuba King for properly identifying the band from Liverpool who now tower as colossal figures in 20th century music.

P.S. Did we scare that poor chap out of here?
