Re: MIDI problems ??? (fwd)


Kim, thanks for that Microsoft pointer - I nearly fell out of my chair
laughing!

>From http://www.microsoft.com/directx/pavilion/future/dmusic.htm 
(see the heading "Use Interactive Music to Add Life"):

  "Repetition is lifeless. Repetition is boring. Repetition is dismal. The 
  variable nature of DirectMusic provides you with welcome relief from 
  that short clip of music that loops over and over and over. In the same 
  way graphics typically follow the user's influence, you can create music 
  that parallels the action of the story with subtle changes of patterns, 
  textures, colors, harmonies, volume, and tempo."
