Hi John and everybody,

I think I've been using "Oboe" on most of my examples ( including the new
one at http://www.pacificnet.net/~nowitzky/justint/contrast.htm ). I
remember digging through different instrument settings, trying to get rid of
the vibrato. But I don't know if I tried any of the organ settings. Some
of those organs have strong harmonics up there (which could be good or bad,
I guess). I'll have to look into it. Thanks for the tip!

The system showed you at
JSTARRET@MATH.CUDENVER.EDU [Digest]
and
JSTARRET@TIGER.CUDENVER.EDU
( and I notice that this email came from
jstarret@carbon.cudenver.edu ).
So I unsubscribed the TIGER one. That should eliminate the second mailings.

I just heard that your site was also considering hosting the list. If this
ONElist system turns out to be unacceptable, your site may still be worth
considering.

Thanks to you and everyone else for your comments,

--Mark
