Am I just forgetful, or is this new text that was just added?

>In 1965 the new tine based Electric Pianos became available in several configurations and all the pianos manufactured during this period featured wooden piano hammers (felt-covered, teardrop shape) and non-tapered Ray-Mac tines. This combination produced the raw, bell-like sound heard on many famous recordings. It is set to "ideal timbre", with a "medium miking" distance.<

It's just bollocks. These sounds are half modelled. "We took an old grannies special prototype sparkletop with special purple sparkles of orange pre-CBS capacitors and set it up using Prince's own oscilloscope". NO YOU BLOODY WELL DIDN'T. You got a load of bollocks and some goon mucked about with it using a computer.

Scarbee is a proper sample. Not this NPNO nonsense.

I wish they'd issue a program for people to create multilayered NPNO files.
