I have tried to explain emotion, but that is a hard thing, and here's why.

- You have to play an instrument to know about it (Or some similar thing).

- Emotion in music is caused by the musician getting caut up in the music, and expressing themselves in that.

A computer can therefore, by that definition, not have emotion.

And I am not abusing my lack of power. You should read the Mods page to see what I can and cannot do.

To all - This thread has become more of an argument between synthesized and non-synthesized music. Can we bring it back on topic?

That is correct, but, advanced VST instruments can very faithfully recreate whole orchestras.

And yes, I have gone a bit "slow" with the mod music stuff, but I'm still steadily working on it. Some intruments, I will play myself, such as a violin for the Rohan theme, and so on.

I have planned most themes, and some are already done, just not polished. Some have basic samples from which I will expand upon.

If you've got any more questions, just ask them here.
