EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Hi Ned,

For starters (regarding the poll), I'm quite a newbie to the whole ADSR,
VCO, LFO, etc babble. I've been using computers for maaaaany years so those
terms are only all to familiar. My background is as a guitarist, why the
synth-world is somewhat new (but not THAT new ;-)..

Kim..

I agree with you, Hendrik, that it would a strange state of affairs, but
I'm not sure that we can say that most or even half the people on this list
have never or rarely used typical analog synthesis routing/programming to
get sounds out of their softsynths. I mean, how many people post on a
regular basis vs how many people read this list? It _would_ be interesting
to have a poll where we ask people if they have any understanding of terms
like ADSR, VCO, frequency modulation vs amplitude modulation, LFO mod to
filter cutoff, etc.
