Frankly, I'm not all that interested in re-creating cymbals for the sake of
re-creating cymbals. I'd never use them for what I do anyway.
What if linux audio were to utilize some sort of {FM?} synthesis sample
module {small, loadable by anything and capable of generating a specific
range of sounds. Not pre-recorded but generative... tunable, etc... over time
individual modules would get optimized to a high degree... "presets"
basically but for single sounds.} that could work across the platform.
Samplers {like postgresql {gnumeric, open office, etc...} with some audio
specific code} could function as librarians... to standardize tunings across
a given bank of samples, to set up dependencies and interactions between
given sound modules, etc, etc... with apt {synaptic, aptitude, dselect, etc}
you could set up a server somewhere and interchange libraries and modules.
...Anyway... given some time it could make the need for standardized "sample"
libraries a thing of the past.
