Hi:

Creative Music Synth is my favorite soundcard-MIDI-only synth.

My most hated soundcard-MIDI-only synth in the entire universe is the
synth present in the soundcards of the 3 PCs in the Career Center of
Diamond Bar High School - the High School I went to. The last time I
checked that MIDI synth was in the spring of 2002. I believe it is
"Crystal soundfont." Not sure, but it *did* have the word "Crystal" in
it, when I checked the MIDI tab of the audio devices in one of those
PC's control panels.

In case anyone wants an ear sore I'll give them the address to DBHS.
Once you go to the school, ask someone where the career center is.
Last time I checked it was next to the library. If you are an auditory-
masochist and love to torture your sound-perception, feel free to play
MIDIs on anyone of the 3 PCs. Your ears will hate you for it.

You'll need a pass from the school office in order to enter the rest
of the school.

Other than the MIDI synths of the 3 PCs in the Career Center, DBHS is
an excellent, top-notch high school. Probably the best high school in
the state of California.

Here is a link to their website:

Here is the address:

21400 Pathfinder Road
Diamond Bar, CA 91765

Phone #: (909) 594-1405

Hell, even the crappy "Microsoft GS Wavetable SW Synth" is tolerable
compared to the "crystal soundfont"

Please note: I am only against soundcard-MIDI-only softsynths,
emulations, sample-playbacks, and soundfonts.

I have absolutely nothing against any type of synth that's non-MIDI
and/or non-soundcard - including softsynths, emulations, sample-
playbacks, and soundfonts that are non-MIDI and/or non-soundcard.

Unfortunately, there are plenty of jerks in the world -- including the
f--kscums of Creative Technology Ltd -- who advocate that kakaa-stink
of the following foam-kakaa of the following *soundcard-MIDI-only
synths*:

1. Softsynths

2. Emulations

3. Sample-playbacks

4. Soundfonts

Creative Music Synth = the fresh, delicious, heavenly, bright, warm,
cool, elastic, vibrating, buzzing, tingly, rejuvenating, refreshing
aroma of sour, organic, natural, pesticide-free, red-&-green peaches
right from the tree.

Has anyone listened to any of the synths I've described? If so, they'd
probably agree with the following:

1. Creative Music Synth is the best soundcard-MIDI-only synth.

2. Crystal soundfont is the worst soundcard-MIDI-only synth.

3. Soundcard-MIDI-only softsynths, emulations, sample-playbacks, and
soundfonts = the hellish stink of stinky, thick, foamy, tickly, itchy,
hissy, sticky, terrifying, disgusting, annoying kakaa foam syrup of a
human who eats stale, fat-free cheddar cheese, sticky milk chocolate,
rotten lentils, and farty cauliflower

4. Softsynths, emulations, sample-playbacks, and soundfonts that are
non-MIDI and/or non-soundcard are often moderate to excellent in audio
quality - usually not bad.


Thanks,

Radium
