woah YEAH baby...  I'm getting a lot of e-mails about the "woodyness" thing
so I think I got that covered...  ;^P

"piercyness"  that would be cool too. Goes with my nipple ring and all that...

"stringiness" ... that might be OK but I don't know... I don't like my meat
stringy, for instance. Still I suppose I could turn it all the way down if I
don't
like it...

"Funkyness" ....  that's the stuff I need.  a white boy can never have enough
funkyness, imho

well they make sense to me. Now how do we code them ?  I have to admit that
(as much as people hated them) the FM instruments did a better job at
synthesizing
sound like "fender rhodes" (piano) than any analog synth would.  So what will
the
additive synths bring us ?

(I admit that I have not listened to the mp3 we were vectored to, my computer
cannot handle more than about 22khz.  I'll see if I can get it from work :^)
