- Most of the sounds in these libraries were found on anonymous ftp-sites
- on the Internet. The rest were sent to me by fellow M1-owners through
- email.
- First of all I'd like to say THANK YOU to all the people who contributed,
- either by uploading patches to the ftp-sites or by sending me personal
- mail. The libraries currently contain 548 patches - this ain't huge, but
- it's more than the 100 factory presets... :-)
-
- Some remarks on the contents of the libs: many programs are placed in
- rather arbitrary libraries, due to the nature of synthesizer sounds.
- Where should one place e.g. 'StringBras' - is it a string sound or a brass?
- So often I did what 'felt' right... and I'm sure I often made the wrong
- decision. And of course many categories have rather blurred borders -
- what exactly is the difference between ambient sounds and gentle synth
- pads? Or between synth pads and 'various synth sounds'? And when does a
- weird synth sound become a sound effect?
-
- So, feel free to rearrange the libraries if you think something somewhere
- somehow went wrong...
-
- The proviso made in the README.1ST file, that all the libraries should be
- present whenever you give away copies of this package, is meant to be
- 'modulo' any kind of rearrangement - if you come up with a better way
- of distributing programs among the libraries, feel free to make the
- appropriate changes (of course). I only want all programs to be present
- in every copy of the package.
-
-
- Enjoy!
