RE: [KL] A future for sample CD-ROMs for Kurzweils
Gosh, I wish I could type. I mean't to say, The purchase can be applied to
the eventual purchase of the entire CD-ROM.
As for CD-ROM's, this is a separate issue. Could you soundware guys offer
ranges of products? Some £50, some £100 for specific purposes, and then
£50000 for that stupidly difficult to make stuff. It is clear from the
posts here that the demand is there for all of them.
Along this line, I know of one soundware provider that offers all sounds on
any given CD-ROM individually and each sound can be purchased individually
on line. The purchase can be applied to the eventual purpose of the entire
CD-ROM. This may be a way to gradually build your library and support our
dedicated soundware builders.
