That clearly gives the reader the impression that 'you' yourself had originally performed & recorded the Midi files.

ONLY after further inquiry, did you then acknowledge you didn't actually perform the songs, but merely tweaked the instrument voices of 3RD PARTY midi files for optimal sound on the Tyros. That's good and fine, but was not what you originally claimed. When you post someone else's song material (midi, MP3, or otherwise), you need to credit the actual performance artist, or at least provide the source of the material. I mean, would you want someone else to take one of YOUR prized 'recorded by you' midi songs, tweak them to sound better on their keyboard, and then claim 'they' produced it? I hope I made my point.

Scott, I was trying to make a little fun out of your various 'inquiries' over the past couple of months about... well, you know. I was just ribbing you a little Scott that's all. You sound like your a little ticked off but no offense was meant or taken btw. The Tyros Christmas songs were 'made' on my Tyros Scott. But what I meant when I said 'made' was that they were recorded using the Tyros, i.e. [the Tyros' sound engine]. I guess I should have made my self clearer but it was unintentional on my part and simply a matter of "written" mis-communication I suppose.

But I appreciate your inquiries Scott. They keep me on my toes for one. And they keep me on the up and up for another. >> Which has been my intention all along btw. But nevertheless, keep 'em coming Scott. If nothing else, for posterity sake..

Best regards,
Mike
