Now if MIDI sounds good enough for virtually every pop tune for the past 30 years, if MIDI sounds good enough for major movie soundtracks, and if MIDI sounds good enough for the world's most famous symphony orchestras, who in their right mind can say that MIDI doesn't sound good?????????




I guess I am not in my right mind, because 9 times out of 10 it sounds canned. The Big Boys have all the toys & know all the tricks, but the little guys don't, and that is still what you hear 9 times out of 10.

One of the best midi tracks I have ever heard is Mac's demo of the SD2, and a few that were done by Roland & Walthius Music. Most of the rest, no matter what the sound source, are too stiff in both velocity and timing.

As for the "famous symphony orchestras", from the wording I will assume that someone was PLAYING that keyboard, triggering the needed sounds, and that 60 people were not playing to a click....
