May I also join the 'happy throng' and wish everyone here a very happy holiday :)

Wish I was 12 again and had 'Combat School', California Games and Ocean's 'Magnificent 7' compilation burning a hole in my stocking!!! Wow - what a Christmas THAT was... :lol:

What would the point be? Promised pre-orders have never been a reliable method of establishing demand (people are fickle), and real pre-orders require a commitment to the product. Also, logic applies. If this CD has hardly anything new, and doesn't have a unique selling point (it wouldn't have been...

I've always found beta-testers kind of a reality check, actually. Useful for confirming stuff you already know (proving it's not in your mind), useful for telling you when a style isn't working... but of course you always have to run it through the "is this merely a difference of opinion?"...

Yeah - bang on, Chris - releasing stuff is scary shit... Fact is though that at the end of the day, a remixer/writer is pretty much on their own - I'm not sure the beta tester thing is always a good idea... Beta testers can only give their opinion on what they can physically hear at any particular s...

I'm sorry to hear this. Don't know you personally Skitz, but reading peoples comments on forums - you kind of get to feel you know people, in a sense...

Re: Lead instrument samples/plug-ins

What sort of instruments or plug-ins do people recommend, and do you use default sounds, or spend heaps of time on tweaking your own, optimized instruments? - pfk TWEAK! Preset's SUCK!

Retails @ about £350.00 GBP, but most places are doing them for about £330.00.

I'm actually swapping my old Roland SH09 for one (I haven't touched it in years), so it's kinda free for me :)
