    Well, first of all, why are you shouting here?
    For some reason your file is playing very corrupted here on my computer but what I could hear was pretty awful. Sorry, but did you render it out of a notation program? It really sounds very cheap, actually almost like a very bad GM module. I had no idea that Opus1 can sound like this, how do you do that?

    Mathis,

    be nice. I haven't heard this yet, but let's make sure dkala knows we are just making friendly talk and not trying to hurt anyone's feelings.

    yes evan, lets try to not hurt someones feelings ....
    dkala - something _must_ have happened with rendering or compressing, this cannot be opus 1, if - it has to be a hardcore test for our fingerprinting team

    Hello,

    There's no way I would wish to hurt your feelings on this. Sincerely. What I would suggest is that you try it again and use a lot more of the articulations available to you in the Opus 1. Plus mixing and the space in which you put the instruments. To get something as ambitious as this to sound good, I would suggest that you would need to sweat over every note and a piece like this would take ages to do. As a tip, you may wish to listen to Andy Blaney's Jeux de Vague or Anton's Paranoids in the VSL demo section.

    This example you have posted, I'm afraid, in no way shows the possibilities available to you with Opus 1. Sorry to be little blunt on this; everyone here in this community wants everyone else to do well and produce something good every time. Not always easy of course. If you post something thats perhaps not all it should be here, you can expect a fairly negative feedback I'm afraid.

    Most of the guys here, are hard nosed professionals that write their own stuff. They sweat every note. Next time I'm sure it will sound a lot better.

    All the best

    yeah, what the heck was that? Good thing CM doesn't need anything from me because that attitude isn't helpful. he might not like it, but my comments have always been helpful, he just never wanted to listen to what could use improving in the Library. VSL is renowned for their defensiveness.

    No worries! You young lads today! I don't know. So full of testosterone! You should get out and exercise more.

    My Grandma started walking 3 miles a day when she was 74; now she's 93 and we haven't a bloody clue where she is. [6]

    19 * 365 * 3 = 20805 miles. So in three years and nine months she should be back. Dont´worry.

    No need to appologize or worry about anything, I'm sure. Must be something wrong with the rendering and there is no way VSL would think anything untoward, I'm sure.

    In fact, appologies from me. I should have at least tried a more constructive criticism. [:O]ops: We are here to help one another, so I'm hoping this does not put you off talking to any of us in any way.

    Yes sir, slow interenet connections are a big pain. Any time you have questions about midi orchestration, the guys here will be only too willing to try and help. I guarantee it. Nice talking with you.

    All the Best
