    Why not?

    Thanks for helping PaulR...

    Guy - I just don't think it's necessary to keep going over old ground - over and over and over and over again.

    And btw - I've seen many posts from people who say they want to post an MP3 example of this or that sound or piece of music. 99% of the time it's usually OK at best - but generally a disappointment at worst. MP3 examples don't prove anything with regard to what's been posted on this thread.

    Not at all my dear fellow.

    Jeez, I can't even remember what this thread is about and I sure ain't reading through it again.

    I got sent a piece from a friend of mine in France - oh - about 4 weeks or so ago. Real orchestra recording.

    Believe me, this was some serious sounding music. Honestly, MP3's of sampled material AFAIC - CAN impress me insomuch as the programming. I've heard just about every John Williams clone going since sample libraries were invented for instance. John Williams impresses me - but JW soundalikes don't. Their programming does - but that's another thing altogether.

    You will now, because you are top 1% - seriously need to come out with something extra special now old chap. If it comes out sounding like HZ - I may put out a contract on you.

    [:P] [:D]

    Guy: Who died and made you Queen of the Forum? I'll write anything I feel like. Especially if it irritates you. End of that part of discussion.

    Thor: Well, I notice yet again - absolutely nothing of substance. And yet I asked what was your point. You answered with more nothingness. Apparently, I must assume your point is a very modern one: possibly Deconstructionist, in that nothing - no text, no statement, no possible point of view - means anything in reality. This is only an assumption of course. Based upon your very Deconstructed writings.

    Paul: yes, the JW clones are extremely disturbing and in fact should probably be subjected to intense de-programming, involving regular electroshock therapy reducing them to drooling wrecks whose only mental activity consists of repeating the statement over and over again:

    "I will stop copying John Williams' use of the II chord with a raised third over a tonic pedal point especially if it involves spiccato violins."

    "I will stop copying John Williams' use of the II chord with a raised third over a tonic pedal point especially if it involves spiccato violins."

    "I will stop copying John Williams' use of the II chord with a raised third over a tonic pedal point especially if it involves spiccato violins."

    "I will stop copying John Williams' use of the II chord with a raised third over a tonic pedal point especially if it involves spiccato violins."

    Thor: After asking repeatedly, it is obvious -

    Nothing is all you're capable of. You have no point, no ideas, no music. Why do I bother with you?

    I have no idea... I am out of here. Go try to impress other people with your non-existent bullshit posts.

    If you posted some music, then I would take you seriously. Even if it was bad, which I respect totally. I do bad music, and totally respect other bad composers. Because they have the guts to put it out there for jerks to rip their guts out with. But you don't even do that, so you are not worthy of further comment. You are HOT AIR. Until you show what you're capable of, goodbye HOT AIR.

    You desperately want Thor to put an mp3 so you could say: "That sounds like shit!!!!!!" And get the last word. Isn't that what you want?

    Not at all, Guy.

    I simply don't trust any human, until I have heard what music he writes.

    Its a good thing I don't need your trust...

    You seem very bitter and hateful. What's wrong ? You should be happy - VI is around the corner...AND Xmas...[:D]

    BTW, me and other members had a discussion about samples and what's good about roomsound and what's bad about it...we also discussed my feeling that the VSL sounds a tad harsh or in other words lacks warmth... some people agreed others disagreed.

    I was going to post an mp3 (with screenshot) that is a simple technical demonstration about different sample libraries and the whole warmth discussion...

    I have lost interest in this thread though thanks to people like yourself.

    I wanted to add some info into this thread, that I thought would have been useful to others, since it has been useful for myself but hey...next thing you know, you get attacked..insulted...etc...so my solution...

    why bother ?

    Cheers !

    Thor
