These tracks all have a typical tracker sound. To many ears they could do with being mixed. Personally, i like the raw tracker sound, but it comes over much better when you distribute the actual module, not a compromised mp3. Not trying to win friends then :-) Seriously, slagging off pros makes it look like you have an inferiority complex. I specifically mentioned Cubase to try and convey some frame of reference. Although it is used by pro's it is not primarily a pro application. But to try and bring this vaguely back on topic, my personal vision would be to have a versatile framework that allowed someone like yourself to quickly create a cool tracker style editor (for example) so that everyone would get the benefit of this mode of creating, but not be limited by it. Its not my intention to try and lock people into old ways of working, its just that there are some features that established applications provide, that some people have to have as a _starting_ point. You have made it clear that that is not way you want to work, and that is fine by me:-) cheers -- Tim Orford
