[musictlk] flutes, and "virtual choir" CDs

[Cameron Strife]

Hi. If you had the multi track version of a recording, I could mix it
down to an audio cd and boost the track or tracks of your choice...

Failing that, there is another option... If one could find a MIDI
arrangement, I could boost the part or parts you'd need and mix that
down to an audio cd... The only catch with that is that it would not
follow the words as you'd have a midi instrument for each part, or, a
generic voice sound...

A note on the moody blues... I saw them live shortly before Ray left
the group. It was quite a good show.

Cameron.
