LOL, I'm still trying to learn how Mozart voiced a G major triad for his orchestra.

LOL again, not to diss this collection, but I just watched the Disney movie "Enhanted" with a simply marvelous score, huge budget production all the way around, definitely "platinum" dollars spent, and yet I heard little or none of the elements mentioned above. Point being, I have learned that one may choose to ignore much and still be relevant. In fact, the process of learning what to ignore may be the key to relevance!

All true. I was just kidding. The barrage of stylistic phraseology just made me chuckle a little. And actually, as regards many modern film scores, the marriage of the classical orchestra with the full-on electronica elements is alive and well. So neither is more valid than the other.

I look forward to checking out this library. Are/will there be any mp3 demos?

What about a professionally crafted set of programs for Rapture and DimPro which make use of both of your sets of waveforms?

...Zappa music is closer to club/dance/tecno than Mozart is.

Disagree. But first of all, I think the expression "Zappa music" is too broad, since he worked in a wide range of styles. Nevertheless, from a rhythmic standpoint, I see alot of similarities between Mozart and the early Viennese classicists and trance music in terms of melody being used as a rhythmic driver as opposed to non-pitched drums and percussion.

This would be an interesting topic to explore and debate, however I just wouldn't have the time since I keep realizing there's a bunch of stuff I need to learn in music. 25 years ago I thought I knew it all. That would have been a good time for this debate
