Hi Gary,

So,the MR series resolution is good enough that one might, in all
probability ,never wish for more ?

BTW,please ignore that rubbish in that post about "psychoacoustic efx"
blah-blah.Just thinking aloud.Could've kicked myself for forgetting to
delete it from the message.

Also there is another alternative: MSP,the real-time synthesis software
that works on top of Max.
It uses Hertz. Also distributed by IRCAM.

John (Loffink),thanks for the Yamaha FM info,but drat.....
And you should get MSP onto you website.
