let me get this straight... i'm not critising Paul... his presentation was flawless...

as i mentioned in the first post i think.. ..and i loved the accent too [[:D]]


i'm just shocked at the amount of content verses the cost... i thought there'd be more than 1 disc for that price?


errr.. how much to dvds movies cost normally? not sure i don't buy them .. but o think 46EU for 1 disc ehem? with under half an hour of content?

even if it's a "lesson" type thing.. if i charged 50 euro for a half hour cello lesson i wouldn't have many pupils [;)]

yes, maybe in future there'll be more on depth and varied tutorials..

i'll look forward to them [[:D]]

"what string quartet did you ever play in that didn't have a second violin! wrongful advertising that!"

I'm by no means the ultimate authority on these things, but I've always understood that a "string quartet" meant a piece written for four instruments/players, not four types of instruments. Now if they had called a "string quintet," there would be something to complain about, but as you said, they didn't. [*-)]

alex [8-)] i'm sorry if i'm being pedantic..

but how many string quartets have double basses in them.. have a look [[;)]] all the way back to Mozart..

it's a genre... likewise string trios don't have 3 strings in them.. that's the oldest joke in college LOL


sorry.. i just don't agree with you there



added note... if anyone wants my DVD, pm me.. i'll sell it to you ..

only used once.. LOL

Well, I have ordered it too and I only can say it's quite concise... it's true that there is not a huge info, but it is not a promo dvd only... it works for me...

I got a little question: my intro, in which you can hear music, does not have picture to it... this is some error, right? there should be images at the same time. right¿ If this should be the case, my dvd would have been pressed badly...

Thks,

Iván

Happy New Year mr laughingbear [[:D]]

hope you didn't get too snowed in up there over christmas


... i'm guessing you had a fair bit of the white stuff as well as the black stuff too [[:D]]

Happy new year dear Claire [:D]

Me does not do the black stuff.... Had a quiet one and that french chap Mr. Moet Chandon was there as well, watched "Hidalgo horsing around".... and tried not to be too frustrated about having a 1000 sqft studio sitting in my backyard which I can not use.... not yet.... not yet.... [[[;)]]] ....Not much of that white stuff here...

Best wishes

P.S. You still suing that VM3100? Still do not want a second one? [[[;)]]]

I'd like to steer this topic back on topic.... [*-)]

No comment from anyone at VSL about the criticisms of the Tutorial DVD.
Is there any chance of additional material?
More examples using various instrument groups?

Regards - Colin

The video tutorial is a "Performance Tool" video tutorial, so it describes all functionalities of the performance tool.
It's not so important which instruments are used, because the performance tool does have the same functions and workflow for all instruments. What I mean is, that there are no differences using the performance tool having loaded a legato clarinet or a legato trumpet.
Same goes for alternation and repetition.

All requests we got regarding producing a performance tool video tutorial were requests for a general description of the tool and the functionalities of the tool and that's what we've tried to deliver.
