Re: RealAudio

[Jeff Schwartz <jeffs@bgnet.bgsu.edu>]

It appears to me that, with my 14.4 modem, I cannot use 
the current version of RealAudio. Therefore, I ask that 
files be made available in .wav or .aiff format as well as 
RealAudio. I'd rather put up with long downloads than not 
be able to hear y'all!

Let me also express my appreciation for all the gear 
designers on this list. I tried out an inexpensive 
preamp/multi-effects unit yesterday and was shocked that 
its display was very difficult to read under normal 
lighting unless I looked at it close up and straight on 
and it changed presets using a knob with no detents or 
marks-a control which would be very frustrating to use 
under the pressure of live performance. Playing with this 
crappy interface (not to mention the bad tones) made me 
feel grateful to those of y'all who put thought into 
building real tools for music making!
