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.

  Yup.  YouTube really can screw up the audio sometimes.  Don't know why.

  Hi.

  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.

  Cheers
  Darren

  Are there any later versions of this product since 2004, and if so, where do 
I find them. The last one I see is from 2004. John

    Hey, can you provide a couple of direct links to demos, because the ones I 
found on the Garritan site didn't work, and the Youtube ones were really piss 
poor. excuse my french.

    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.

    Cheers
    Darren

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

      Will respectfully agree to disagree.  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.




      Regards, Phil Muir
