Good post. I would like to add that every mixing course has a section on EQ, so perhaps get yourself one of the Steinberg mixing tutorial DVDs (they're great), or another one. Try eBay.
how long have u been playing the piano? where did u learn?
that was a really nice performance. i can play chords and shit, but i cant use 2 hands together yet... im not co-ordinated enough. :)
the sonic reality set is good, but i prefer working in the miroslav refills (which are actually made by sonic reality) for sampled instruments and just using the malstrom and subtractor for the synths. there are no real stand-out sounds in the Synth sets by SR. too many 'evolving' sounds (not my...

Sanova, could you point to the program somewhere? i asked propellerheads and they told me that unless you have the "SDK (software development kit)" from Propellerheads themselves (which only propellerheads have) then you cannot make something that interferes with refills and the Reason program...
there was talk of a refill extractor thing years ago... but i doubt anybody ever used it successfully (if it existed/worked at all). unfortunately, unless you work directly at Propellerhead, there is no way to get around the protection :(
noooo... this program is not for disks for samplers... it is for, say if you want your Yamaha Motif to be sampled and turned into a Reason Refill or Kontakt Sampler library.
