Thanks for your great note on .ls3 files.
You are welcome, my pleasure.
I'm going to put all this
information together in a Styles.faq for inclusion in the Styles
folder.
Thanks. Feel free to share it with anyone.
BTW, great note on what this group could
become. As we grow we could
become a great source of knowledge etc. Documenting "stuff"
that PG
Music have not had the time or the inclination to do.
It is nice having a group that is not under the control of PG Music. Not
that PG ever abused its control in its forum, in fact they were very
tolerant of criticism. But having them lead the group makes for a feeling
of a company group (for loss of a better term). I don't know how to
explain it. It just seems like we are looking to PG instead of each other
for everything. Perhaps Parent/child might be a better term.
Of course that is not a negative, just different. And the PG Forum is a
great thing when you find bugs in the program, or need the kind of help
only PG can supply, because they can respond quickly.
But there is something about being independent of the program that should
make this more of a peer to peer community.
This group should compliment, not replace that forum.
BTW, I do expect them to monitor this group. It would be in their best
interests to do so.
As Bob says
it's up to us all to make this a great group!
Indeed. The first group I ever joined was a wind synth players group. I
started out lurking, then participating. I received so much information
from so many experts on the subject of wind synthesis, that I think I
learn in one year what it would take ten to learn on my own. Plus I made
some great friends.
I am hoping this becomes as rich and colorful as the wind synth
group.
