Snowy Night

Hi Fred,

Thanks for the help. I think I might be getting somewhere. I also went and overwhelmed myself. Noticed there's a Brush kit, so opened the GM bank in Vienna and listened to what was there. Then started opening others, like Magic, Musica Theoria, ZFS, etc. The percussion components seem to be the same but there is a big difference from one bank to the other in how they sound.

You're right about the amount of playing around that might be involved in getting the drums right, especially for someone as dumb as I am about it. In going through the various kits, I found some interesting sounds, but I don't even know what the instruments that produce half them are called, much less what the look like or are made of.

I thought about waking up the flute player. Also thought about having a guy with a trumpet wander in. There is also a vibraphone sitting over in the corner. Maybe the next snow storm.

Thanks again,
