ÓÕÂÊ: ×ELL...                    (Ò)   ÆÒÏÍ: ÒOBERT      12/29/89   Ó#: 65115   
 ÎEITHER FEATURE WAS IN MY ORIGINAL
 PLAN. ÄURING TESTING, SOME PEOPLE DID
 EXPRESS INTEREST IN HAVING THE ABILITY
 TO SEE THE "TARGET" TEMPO ACHIEVED
 THROUGH THE COMBINATION OF ÔÅÍ AND
 ÊÉÆ, BUT THE COMPLEXITY AND LENGTH OF
 THE MATH ROUTINES NEEDED TO IMPLEMENT
 THAT FEATURE, COUPLED WITH THE DESIRE
 TO PROVIDE AS MUCH ROOM FOR ÓÉÄ DATA
 AS POSSIBLE, MADE THAT FUNCTION TOO
 COSTLY TO PUT IN.

 É DID PLAN TO PROVIDE A TABLE OF
 VALUES IN THE FORM OF A ÓÅÑ FILE YOU
 COULD PRINT OUT. É'LL TRY TO GET THAT
 FINISHED WHEN É HAVE TIME, BUT UNTIL
 THEN YOU CAN ALWAYS USE TRIAL AND
 ERROR UNTIL THE SONG SOUNDS RIGHT.

 ÂEFORE YOUR POST, NO ONE EVER
 EXPRESSED INTEREST TO ME IN SEEING
 WHICH PHRASES WERE DEFINED. ÇIVEN THE
 NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE DONE VERY
 FINE WORK USING ÓTEREO ÅDITOR, É'D
 GUESS THEY'RE USED TO KEEPING TRACK
 OF THAT ON PAPER, ALONG WITH NOTES ON
 WHAT EACH PHRASE DOES; BUT É'LL LET
 ÔÈÅÍ COMMENT ON THAT. ÁLSO REMEMBER
 THAT IN A STEREO ÓÉÄ, YOU HAVE 48
 PHRASES TO WORK WITH (24 IN EACH
 SIDE).

 É HAVE TO POINT OUT AGAIN THAT É
 DIDN'T USE THE ÅNHANCED ÓIDPLAYER
 EDITOR AS A TEMPLATE FOR THE CREATION
 OF ÓTEREO ÅDITOR. É STARTED WITH A
 VERY SIMPLE DESIGN GEARED SPECIFICALLY
 TOWARD LESS TEDIOUS ENTRY OF STEREO
 FILES, AND THROUGH THE RECOMMENDATIONS
 OF A SMALL GROUP OF VERY PROMINENT ÓÉÄ
 ARRANGERS, THE PROGRAM WAS MOLDED INTO
 WHAT IT IS NOW. É DIDN'T LOOK AT THE
 VARIOUS ÅNHANCED ÓIDPLAYER FEATURES
 AND CONSCIOUSLY DECIDE WHICH TO
 IMPLEMENT AND WHICH TO OMIT.
