whoa whoa whoa, then what about people like me that make their own "sounds" in programs like Max/MSP or PD?!?

Are you telling me Aphex Twin or Autechre aren't musicians?!? Both of which make their own sounds...

Just because you don't like the process or method doesn't mean said method is FALSE. It just means different floats for different boats in different moats!

And, btw I do play the guitar and keyboards as well but I don't think that in and of itself makes me anything besides a person who plays guitar and keyboards.

I do agree about creating your own songs and compositions... But that CAN be done in many ways not just a couple... Broaden your horizons and open your mind a bit, you might just learn something.

Hahahaha, omg that was one of the funniest things I've seen in a while... Thx :)

okay i'm sure that's Harrison Ford. i can't place the movie though... :(
