I quoted the statement I wanted to respond to -- in its entirety, please
re-read it. I didn't and don't want to comment on any other points you
made. If you would like to respond to my metaphor concerning tools,
mimicry and artistry, please do. If you want to question my use of the
metaphor, contact me off list. There's no sense polluting this thread
more than I already have ... my off-topic quota is almost full for this
year :D

To bad that you didn't quote me correctly. Resume: If you want to play hobby music in the
style of other
artists some software tools make it easy to do so, but you never
will find your individual style. If you want to make art, you have
to find your own sound, this is time consuming and comes with a long
learning curve, you can't do it as easy as playing hobby music.
Simply amazing that the likes of Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Berlioz,
Chopin, Rosini, Paganini, Liszt, Brahms and numerous others (including
myself) spanning 2 centuries used the same counterpoint "tool"
