I think there is still some confusion about the Qranger features..
How I told before, Qranger is ONLY one opened Timeline audio-midi SEQ, with integrate the chords maps and merker pointer for the realtime patterns recall.
The Qranger include also the standard Midi Chords Table for manage in realtime the mandatary master MAJ chord to the all relative pressed chords + the Hig quality Elastique
www.zplane.de Audio Plugin for the timestrech and audio transpose.
Sayd that, is ONLY from the styles compose to choose what type of styles to write, Qranger give only the Freedom to compose what you like.
Of course complex audio styles need a lot of work and for sure some audio chords will be not process right from Elastique like one standard midi tracks.
audio MAJ chords can NOT be converted to Minor or 7th, is normally, but for resolve this issue we have to use Audio Min and 7th too, simple.
Today I get also the Qranger version with the EMC Export to SEQ module and in the next days I will post some new demo video how the qranger load this all midi styles and then also we start to make one first big midi styles bank.
This mean that Qranger is able to play standard midi styles with the desidered Soundbank, like Giga, Rom, Vst...
Other our styles developers will start to make only standard audio-midi styles ( like korg, Audya and so on..) but based in HD streaming and NOT in sampler. ( you know how much time then you need to preload the sampler until the style is ready to play..someone need more than 10-15 minute before they can press Play.... and I will also know how much time they need to programming one simple audio-midi styles...they dont have the Drag&drop features like the Qranger..)
Anyway, you will see really soon in the next days.
about the Library:
of course in the net give TON of library, but thin do NOT mean that you have to buy all, buy only what you are more interested and install in to the MS and play it.
or MAYBE there in USA, when you buy one 500$ PC laptop, then you get the all library for free?? I think under windows you have to pay every nice application, because nobody will work on OS for nothing...
When Lionstracs will release audio styles, you will find inside the style folder the all sounds library used for the style and this always for FREE.
company like Loopmasters are interesting ONLY for SALE, so from they you will find PRO Audio styles under payment.
About Fran MS:
he have one OLD MS, 32bit slow CPU and with the first Mixerboard with 24Mb rom bank.
After we release the OS 2.5, Fran can just download the new ISO OS 2.5 and the Standard Library installer, 2 CD installer, 18 minute waiting time and then the Fran MS will working with the last features too.
only one note: with the new OS, with Vst Host and Qranger, better have one Fast CPU. min 2Gb RAM and better one SATA HD for the good streaming tracks, thats all.
if give more question, just ask.
cheers
