Bill Bremmer RPT </BLOCKQUOTE> Bill I think you're trying to find fault where is none. The article points out that even with the advanced hardware and software, there is still a lot of sophistication needed in order to make and produce music. What the software is enabling more musicians to do is produce music with fewer mistakes, and improve on what they already know. No where do I see anything that says non musicians are going to be able to make music, just because they own a computer, which is what the "do it yourself" piano tuning kit is implying. Wim </HTML>
