But squeak, don't you, er, 'get it'...? This is an OPEN systems arranger.

I guess this means that you not only have to roll your own styles, but you have to roll your own sounds as well.....

I guess they just don't realize.... If we HAD the skill to write styles and program sounds and sample instruments as well as the majors, well, we'd be working for them, doing exactly THAT!

Me, I'm a player. Some technical skills, OK, but I wouldn't dare dream for one instant that I had the skills to make a complete set of styles that rival the majors. And I'll go one step further..... I GUARANTEE that there is not one single person posting on this forum that has those skills either.

You know how I know.....? Because that person would be making a fortune SELLING us styles for our existing arrangers....! If he's THAT good, he's either already making styles for the majors, or selling third-party styles. Unfortunately, this mythical creature never comes here (where you would think he would). So I am lead to believe he doesn't exist.

But he is Domenik's apparent target market. Best of luck, mate......

None of us LIKE to admit we have limitations, but I for one am prepared to admit that there might be a few things too difficult for me to achieve, or too boring to want to try. Making a complete set of killer styles is one of those things. And I am prepared to bet that no-one else here is, either.

Domenik, on the other hand, is betting his entire future on the fact that we ARE skilled enough to do exactly that. I wouldn't want to take that bet if it were MY company on the line.
