Well, Kingfrog for one..

Numbers, when you are talking about RAM and sampler use, is VERY important. If AJ's post wasn't a typo, and what it is is a fact (sadly, I am unable to believe it) it would revolutionize arranger use, not to mention the Internet, and the entire recorded music industry...

Imagine that MP3's weren't lossy... at the moment, 2-1 is all anyone, anywhere in the entire computing community has managed to squeeze out of lossless audio compression, Audio data, unlike computer data, has very little in the way of redundancy. To remove significant amounts of data, you HAVE to start significantly reducing the fidelity.

Let's put it this way... If Ketron had invented a lossless 12-1 codec, they wouldn't have wasted it on an arranger. They would have launched it on the entire audio world, MP3's would no longer exist, and they would all be billionaires!

File under fiction, I'm afraid...
