Sorry, I overreacted.
A pet peeve of mine is the “if you don’t like it, you didn’t understand it” argument. Used to hear this a lot when discussing DSI synths. “Oh, you need to tweak it, you can’t rely on presets”. Somehow, the idea that someone could know what they are doing, make an effort to learn the synth, and still not like the sound, seems impossible for some to understand. Talk about “mindsets” and “the most basic patch” seems in that vein. I accept Starthief’s statement that the intent was not personal. But also, please understand my intent - I was saying for the benefit of anyone else who might read this thread that disliking the sound of something does not necessarily mean that one has a mindset of setting up the most basic patch - i.e. is inexperienced, lazy, or dumb.
