Euler,

You're right, the performance certainly can't compare with a real one. What MusicDNA produces is a simple MIDI: no tempo changes, fermatas are tough, all the notes are in the duration multiples of 32nd notes. Luckily that's how I think musically: structure, harmony, melody. The musicians should take care of the actual musicality of the piece.

I could have done more with Logic's *excellent* sequencing, but I'm still a neophyte with it. I'm happy I could map the midi to Miroslav and get a reverb going. That only took an hour or so...making it sound like a real performance would've taken forever.

MusicDNA does also produce (rough) sheet music, which could be played by musicians (if anyone would like a pdf copy of Candlelight plz msg me). My comp teacher has a cellist lined up to play it and record it, I can't wait to hear the real thing!
