Well, but the examples there are just a way to express the difference between audio and music. It is not about "do you like it?" or "hey, you are not a real musician, because you don't understand that music". It was just an attempt to define the concept of "music" in a ...

the story there ended like this: reason fans writing things like "music are my pants", "music is pop corn at cinema"... all nonsense... or "emotive" opinions like "music is my life", "music is the sound of universe" and so on. So I replied it was my ...

when i posted that link of Pollini in the PH forum all the fanboys laughed and the most enthusiast one said "it is not music" and called me "troll", asking the PH staff to ban me (... they did, actually) Another example of me "trolling" in the PH forum: http://www.youtu...

but the topic of topics is not about the horrible propellerhead policy. It is about MIDI vs AUDIO. The Propellerheads banned me because i don't like the product anymore (no vst, no midi-out: they still cannot avoid reason crashing with vst support: after 10 years! That is why they can't introduce vs...

ok, your answers are emotive. Here is my answers: (1) Are the children in the audience listening to music? The children are listening to sounds. When they understand the MEANING of these sounds, they are listening to music. “Music” is when you understand it is music. See this: http://www.youtube.com...

two revolutionary dates in modern music history: 1983 (MIDI); 1997 (VST). When Peter Neubäcker introduced the Direct Note Access, we thought it was the third revolution (making the impossible possible: transform audio into music). But it was kind of a hype, infact it does not work. Only with single ...

a real guitar composer, when composing, writes scores or uses midi converters... so that the ideas played with guitar can remain music (midi events or score) and not recordings (audio tracks)

you are wrong: what you hear and call "music" is not music. It WAS music. If played in real time is music (a real player or a midi sequencer). If recorded (audio tracks, cd, mp3, dat etc.) is not musc anymore, it is just sound. Your mind calls it "music" but in a musical perspect...

as i said before, midi is still music and, since i am a purist i never open audio tracks, because audio tracks are not music, only sound. So, when i ask for vst support is because pluginstruments are midi played (still music). They told me "use rewire", but rewire is an audio protocol, not...

Then why didnt you answer him there.

banned, because propellerhead own rewire. And rewire is not for midi, but for audio. Since i asked for vst support (midi), they banned me.

a pen is not music, but score sheet is music, because music is the language. You can EDIT music with the pen, or with an instrument (which are musical TOOLS). You cannot do that with audio signals. So midi is music, the score is music, the sound made with music (the so-called "music") is n...

technically, midi is a music interpreter, since music is a language. So MIDI is music, because you can compose music with midi. Audio is not music, audio is sound (something for sound engineers). Musicians write, read, edit music (score notes and/or MIDI events). So: midi tracks are still music (lik...

Midi is control information and not music in itself, the sounds produced by such information controlling a midi sound device are no different to the same sounds recorded and played back as an audio file. midi and music (the code) are in corrispondence. If you change a note, or a pause, or something...

by the way, the question is not philosophical. It is technical. Because technically speaking (in a musical perspective) MIDI is still music, AUDIO is only sound.

i don't know, the question is not mine, a guy on PH forum asked that, because i think only midi tracks are music in a sequencer.
