I’ve been more of a ‘wanna be Educator’ than anything else when it comes to ‘Music’.
They always say, “People who can’t do, teach.” I guess that’s me 
My background and higher credentials are along the lines of learning psychology, course design, and technical writing (instructional technology).
I did spend years performing music as a ‘mediocre’ musician (Piddler on many instruments and singing, master of none). Did the B.F.A. thing in ‘Commercial Music’ and managed to get that undergrad sheep skin. M.Ed. in ‘Instructional Technology’.
Have put in plenty of years doing elementary and secondary level classroom music (General/Choirs/Concert and Marching Band/etc.).
Composing? Maybe someday…I get too distracted by all the ‘marvelous toys’.
I do love to explore music tech advances, and teach people with far more creativity and much better ears than myself to get a little more out of their tools.
If I can get more time in the not so distant future to shut down the phones and other distractions, I’ll see about putting together a nice sounding template for Sonic Selection. If I can, I’ll make it so it’ll render General MIDI files that are all ready to go in any ole GM Player.
It really can sound pretty darn good! Just needs a little knowledge of the concepts behind the design of Sonic, the sounds it has, and how tweak them out and layer them up.
Here’s a post I did not too long ago explaining one way to get ‘string sections with arco, tremolo, and pizzicato’ going with Sonic Selection. I think I posted a score that can be downloaded, and some sample audio renderings to hear.
