Mr Mike Harper,

I am quite surprised that your posts are tolerated on such an otherwise elegant forum. The people here are merely giving their reactions in a civilised way, which is their good right.

As for you, I suggest you pay a little visit to Mr Oz yourself, and get yourself at least a small upgrade pack of common decency and basic politeness.

And while your at it: get a brain as well. Only a very ignorant person would mention "loop making noise" and "cubase forums" in one breath.
Everyone else knows steinberg offers excellent software for professional composing and audio editing. A lot more than "noiseloops" has been created on cubase, though probably not by you.

Also wondering about that, as this is not even the only flame he did.

I would imagine that users who have made a contribution to the forum in the past might be given a little more rope. However those who join in merely to complain....................

DG

Well,

"giving more rope" and "not intervening personal insult" is quite a bit a difference, at least for me.
Maybe "go and get a brain" is just normal talking in his environment, but this is an international forum... I hardly consider something like that as friendly talking in general.

One could interpret this in all kinds of ways. I hope you did not mean critically discussing the prodcut policy - because I think a user should be able to do that. This just shows that they care about their relation to the company - for example I never complained about Logic Pro7 (the new features, the missing features) I just did not buy the update.

And I think that VSL can stand a little critics and knows how to interpret them.

I have no problem with people criticising a product. I have a small problem with criticising in a thread with this title, as I find it offensive.

Thanks for your answer. There I you right, the title is not the best, but I think the discussion was pretty open and fair.

To this I think I have to state that I had a PM with "cm" and he told me his opinion about it and he also expressed his concerns in the other thread. So my statement is pretty much simplified.


I do not know Mr. Harper, cannot state on his contributiions as we are perhaps in different sections of this forum until now. From my first contact I would think it was not the worst thing.

Sorry for putting this further.

and the title tends to trigger a flaming tendency in other people.

tele

ok. ok. that was over the top! no offense to anyone. btw i do own cubase!

Well, I can only respect a man who admits a mistake.
And since my reply was at least as "spicy" as yours, I probably could have been a bit wiser myself.
Lots of happy composing in Cubase then, Mike!

Sincerely,

Alex

True. The word "Scam" is not in place here. The VSL-people don't deserve that.
I still don't understand why the registered owners were not offered converted versions of the samples they already own, to try in the VI. The VI itself should of course come with a price, it is a new product. But with the options ffered now, I feel rather left out.
But that said, it doesn't affect my respect towards the Vienna team.
Not at all.
