I need to step back Donny. I didn't want to make a lot of noise about it, other than not totally vansishing without saying thanks to some of the folks here that helped me learn some cool things that I might never have otherwise known about arrangers and synths. It isn't totally about the stuff that goes on at the forum, but also my own attitudes in dealing with it. Also I need to focus more on what is going on in my "real life" as well. Nothing catasrophic, just some very "busy" family stuff.

Beyond that, much of what I'm interested in trying to do musically right now doesn't often relate much to arrangers, so I find myself getting into some topics that probably don't really fit well here..

I'm no expert at anything, but with the start I got here, I went from knowing almost nothing about midi to the point where I have been able to learn a good bit, especially about didgtal recording and Vst synth software, and if I can help someone else with it I'm simply an email and if necessary a phone call away. Cheers...
