Sweetwater was not about lower prices but service after the sale. A people get older they start selling for less responsibility. I wouldn't worry. If it regresses then those who made changes should be taken outside the city gate and stoned. (not with weed)
I've had a license since 4. When you try to use it with basic functions most DAWs have you find it lackluster. Sure the instruments and racks are cool but other than that it's not in the same league as most DAWs. You have to be a fanboy to appreciate it. I'll probably upgrade anyway.
Not a dime from me either. This would have been an unnecessary purchase to being with. It's nice to get that kind of help that put's you in the pass category.
You can do a search for a midi file and download it. I won't post any links because these midis are probably a copyright violation. I might have to try this with my recent 8dio strings, brass, and Liberis, all orchestral,
That string part was also used in a song called Solo
Interesting how one can come up with a great line and repeat it over and over and it works.
You could probably use this song to basically sell any string library. Most people are probably too into the riff and not the quality of the library. One could use GPO or one of those not so great NI strings in Konplete.
