However, I've gotten sick of the sounds (not at all realistic without heavy EQ), so I tend to do very strange things to the sound, and make it sound LESS realistic than it is (example: lots of echo, flanging, compression, etc.). Makes REALLY neat sounds, especially with lots of distortion. When I was using my $200 Casio keyboard (haha), I used to do similar things because the sound is so awful. My philosophy is -- modify everything. Then again, my favorite music would be called noise by most people. So there. -- John Labovitz uucp: ..!decvax!philabs!sbcs!bnl44!hnij arpa: hnij@bnl44.arpa rms.g.hnij%oz@mit-mc.arpa
