Why post on a forum then? Just email the tune to your "trusted" friends and don't bother with the public. Obviously you don't care what the public thinks so why are you here?

I for one was glad to hear your work but won't bother in the future.

Honestly, Jerry, you are really not coming across well here. I am with Pima.

Very nice composition and midi sounds. You're right, music does come from the brain but sense of space and authenticity comes from the ears.

Jerry - it is really quite a great work you do.  Nicely done.  As I read through the posts and then listened again, I think some good points were made regarding reverb.  You're right - if it sounds good to you that's all that counts.  I just can't help wondering what this piece would sound like using a cavernous true stereo convolution reverb with a longer tail.  With the right one it would not smear any of the attacks - the trick is finding the right one.  All the dynamics and articulations would be preserved.  It would simply take your already fantastic piece and make it even bigger.

Excellent job Jerry, I loved it.  I listened to the whole thing and thought it sounded great all around. 

You get the "I prefer more salt on my potato's" everywhere.  For the most part, I think people are trying to be helpful in their own way.  With all of your experience, I would think brushing those comments aside, (if you don't agree with them), should be fairly routine.  Everyone has an opinion, but who is right, when it comes to music? 

I hate to see this thread turn negative, after posting such a cool piece of music, that obviously took alot of work and dedication.  I am glad you posted this, not only because it was a joy to listen to, but it was also a motivator for me.  Thank you for posting this piece.

Wrong post... had two windows open... thought I had posted in bapu's thread.

Thanks.

Sorry.

 To my old ears, this sounds very natural to me, I wouldn't know it from a real orchestra.  Nice movement in this piece.  Dynamic and dramatic.  .   I like this piece.
