Hi Phil, Now I've heard Garritan used well, it is very good, I'm very impressed, especially with the demo I've put below. The YouTube clips are just not very well done at all. It's a shame that Garritan have made their own clips so hard to find. For those that might not get the MP3 to play, 1: enter on the link below, 2: press jaws cursor and arrow up an down until you hear, "clip info: (No information available)". Once you hear this, press right mouse key and finally press enter and the MP3 should play. http://www.garritan.com/demos/On_the_way.mp3 Steve W ----- Original Message ----- From: Phil Muir To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, September 22, 2010 10:56 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Trying to find good demos of Garritan Yup. YouTube really can screw up the audio sometimes. Don't know why.

I've worked out how to play the demos as the flash player isn't great. Involved me mucking a bout with downloading their source code and working out the direct file paths, but I'm there now. first demo I heard was much better than the Youtube stuff, so there may be hope after all.

The last one I see is from 2004.

I'd actually really love to be able to say what I've heard so far has blown me away, but they either are very poor, or the demos I've heard aren't official demos and just uploaded by wallies.

I also heard the new Jazz and Big Band stuff, and it's pretty good.

If you want good orchestral sounds the Garritan Personal Orchestra is fantastic! Way better than Dimension Pro. The strings on Dimension Pro are good but the Garritan ones are in a different league again. I purchased it just for the strings but, if I were into orchestral stuff, I would purchase it for that as nothing else comes close. I don't use orchestral stuff much here however, I will be using the strings on some of my backing tracks in the future. In fact, I may even revoice some of the tracks that I have with the Garritan strings. Also, playing them is a dream. They just respond as you would expect.
