Indeed it depends very well on the intent. It's easy to compare with the originals as they are found easily on youtube. Since the intent is at play and since one of the goal could have been to make it sound like it does (if that makes sense) one could perhaps venture nevertheless that the blending of sounds is on the scarce side. That is, if compared with a human playing the same, on a real piano. Perhaps like not using the sustain pedal much. Sounds seems to be clear-cut. Is this kind of criticism valid ? I don't know. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
