Tim Exile's music *is* very original and interesting but he actually spent a lot of time immagining his setup and then actually programming it.. it's a very complex setup. So, while I'm of course ok with those who say "who cares, if someone can make great music with this thing it's ok", I don't believe ready-to-use one-size-fits-all tools like this will actually make anyone in to Tim Exile. Even the Irving Berlin example that was given: he actually spent hours and hours composing. Whichever direction one goes, to translate sounds from dream to reality he has to put his soul in it, which also means putting his time in it. cheers renato
