Sorry, genesys, but before we go much further, perhaps you could play us some of YOUR 'conversions' from third party styles...

You see, there is a huge gap between a machine having the POTENTIAL to do a task, and users' actual skill to do the task. Personally, as I have said earlier, I believe it is a VERY hard task to take a style for one arranger, and turn it into something at least as good on another. Whether closed or open. If you feel otherwise, respectfully, I would like to hear some examples of you doing this.

Otherwise, you are arguing a point you cannot support. I believe there is a VAST difference between merely moving a note here, a note there to edit an already pretty good style to fit a tune you want to do, to taking something that sounds bloody horrible on its' new arranger, and turning it into something as good as from whence it came. Let alone BETTER.

I would like to see some proof that this is as easy as you make out. Because, in my experience of mining the web for conversions, I haven't found anyone reliably succeeding at this. Who knows? Perhaps, if you feel this is easy (and can show proof of the quality of your work), there is good money to be made providing this service? Lord knows, there are enough MS users out there clamoring for good non-PSR styles that use VSTi's and all the capabilities that the MS has.
