You got drafted.... must've had a low number.

Seriously, read the initial thread about creating this place. I included you just in case you wanted to. No obligation... you just have the power to delete posts that are off-topic. I can remove you too if you'd like. :-)

No, no-- I'm delighted. Flattered, really. It just came as a shock. I'd been out of town for the past couple of weeks and only peeked into the usual places.

Most flattering is that this is a topic that interests me the most since I spend a lot of my time doing orchestration in DP and Finale-- and trying to distiguish what makes a score work live vs how that score would work in virtual world.

Boy, do I have some links ready to go when the occasion calls for it!! :wink:

Great fun! I'm honored and humbled!

Thanks, James.

Frodo: You see? That was the plan and the catch all along :lol:

I know orchestration is one of your strenghts, and I'm looking forward to discussing such things with you and the others shortly.

Now let us get geekier. Err... Is that even possible? Is that even a word? :P

Yes, "geekier" is a word-- which means that "geekiest" is also a word. LOL! :lol:
