    ...didn't get to hear this until just now...

    Beautiful work Andy!!

    This is surely music-making on the highest level! When someone creates something this good, who cares whether it's an orchestra or someone with a keyboard and computer. Fantastic! Not one musical detail out of place I reckon. (And, amazingly, nothing 'brushed under the carpet' with lots of reverb in the hope of covering it up - all laid out for us to hear! - because... there is nothing to cover up!!!)

    Congratulations and regards,

    Simon

    Hi Guys,

    Thanks for your replies. Evan, I'd be happy to go into details, but I'm not sure if it would be fair on Herb to potentially promote other sample libraries on his website.......

    Ok, sorry. You're completely right. But of course, we talk about EVERYTHING here. It goes completely unmoderated.

    in any event, could you email me the list?

    Thanks so much,

    if you mention other libraries that match as well with VSL as they do in your piece, it could only be promotion for VSL - no?

    Andy, Herb is one of the most gracious people I know, and one who is secure with himself and his work. I don't see any problem in putting up your instrument list. Afterall, VSL doesn't have muted brass, and a few other articulations as yet. So seeing how you innovated and supplemented this great library would indeed be a great treat for all of us.

    Please consider it.

    Bravo Andy! Beautiful, Personally I really do not care if you did this with a Roland Sound Canvas [:D] or with whatever you have and like. The fact that you did use VSL patches is a guaranty for this libraries qualities. It is just great to listen to it and to admire your talent.

    I agree with Iwan in that I don't think it matters in the slightest what Andy used on this besides VSL which is the one really irreplaceable ingredient with its performance samples. Though I imagine the others are either Dan Dean, Miraslav, X sample, Sonic Implants, Kirk Hunter, Siedlaczek, whatever, it doesn't matter. You won't get a performance this good just by getting the same sample libraries. You'll get it by using the ones everyone already knows of with the same musical skill and knowledge of the orchestra as Andy.

    Great job! Incedible detail! I know how much work goes into creating these mockups of masterpieces. I have attempted to do one on "Holst's Saturn" from the Planets.
    I would like to hear your comments.
    Please email me at bobluna@earthlink.net and I will give you the address of the FTP server. Again, great job.

    This is surely music-making on the highest level!

    Please....god it is not...
    hearing the orchestra of paris play debussy's music life is MUSIC making on the highest level.
    This is computer programming on the highest level and a brillant job at that...
    but anyone with basic piano skills can buy the score to la mer and punch it out.
    I am not denying his great skill at using this software....perhaps the best I have heard anywhere...wonderful job
    but lets not call this music making for the sake of the musicians that are playing the works of debussy(and the like) and have worked for 8 hours a day there whole life and born with talent to do it.
