I agree totally about having a rethink after all the euphoria about realtracks. I did a song a few weeks ago with only realdrums and a midi style, and I think it sounded as good if not better than using realtracks.

I think what we have got used to with midi is we review a midi style without reviewing the individual parts, so many styles it would be kind of an impossible task to review all the individual parts, a lot of the midi styles are rubbish anyway so out of date, but that’s not the midi fault, just boring styles.

I am all for a picker for midi instruments so that we can all add our own favourites to it.
