Some research institutes have strict guidelines, at what time, what research results, in what way should or shouldn't be published, others have less strict guidelines and apart from the different research institute guidelines, some magazines (print media, TV etc.) seemingly follow no guideline at all. The most interesting insights usually have less sensational headlines and are more reserved with speculations. "The researchers hope the new technique will help musicians and music teachers in their quest to achieve the perfect vibrato" C'mon! That's ridiculous. It might or might not be interesting for musicology and/or for people who program virtual instruments and something similar, but musicians as well as music teachers follow another approach to play their instruments, to use their vocals, an approach that requires another kind of insight. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
