Hello Roy -

CA>>> Could be the type of music involved. Symphony, big-band,
CA>>> and others have a wider frequency range of instruments.
CA>>> Some who prefer only vocals don't care if the instruments
CA>>> are heard or not and the human voice is at the low end of
CA>>> midrange frequencies. 

RJT>> Maybe I'll find out when I get to some of those
RJT>> categories. I do have all sorts of music on hand here. 

CA>> I think you will notice differences and some that are
CA>> unpleasant if they are just ignored. 

RJT> Perhaps. We'll see. I won't be messing with it until I get
RJT> a new, bigger HD though... 

If I remember corrrectly graphics too. ;-)

RJT> I don't know if streaming stuff will work with my current
RJT> setup, I might have to configure something. 

No doubt.

CA>> Just the terminology 'MIDI' has many meanings. MIDI-music
CA>> files are one thing but MIDI can even control other
CA>> external devices (light-n-magic shows etc.). 

RJT> I've heard of some of that stuff. I would be interested
RJT> some time to know how they do that (in the software --
RJT> which midi commands are used for what, etc.). 

Only useful if you intend to use it really.

RJT> I thought Timidity was installed here, but am not sure.
RJT> I'll have to check it out... 

TIMIDITY is good IMO.

CA>> Well I've done the exact same work for 1x and at other
CA>> times for 2.5x wages. I kept trying to get to 3x but never
CA>> quite managed that. ;-) 

RJT> Probably depends on how much BS you're willing to put up
RJT> with. My tolerance has never been all that high. 

Not so much the BS as walking over the corpses of others who
also tried to get 3x (or more) without even noticing they are
there.

CA>> I didn't always see it that way, only recently. 

RJT> The changes in one's perspectives that come with age... 

RJT> We went to visit family recently, and since the last time
RJT> we'd been up there my mother had had cataracts dealt with.
RJT> In both eyes. It was funny when we were all sitting there
RJT> at the table, and she took notice that the both of us were
RJT> "going gray". :-) 

My 80 year old mother and stepfather had those plastic lens
inserted into their eyes and can now see better than I can. She
insists I am not 'old' but I think she is prejudiced. ;-)
