Allright, should have been more specific. I also have the Pinder
cd, probably one of the first when it released, and agree it is
outstanding, as there are other QUALITY samples out there. However
releasing something commercially, for the mainstream user, one would
think it could have been done better than this. As soon as I return
home will download your work and thank you for that. Doug (owner of
