Future of canned music
Orchestra's are expensive groups and it can be hard to get your music played. As an alternative some composers use sample libraries like Vienna Symphonic Library. These libraries are expensive as well (5.000+ dollars) a set.
In many Hollywood films and computer games you can hear sampled music, mixed with live recorded instruments. These libraries have a good return on investments in these settings.
With the new development of Synful's Reconstructive Phrase Modeling (RPM), libraries like these will become extinct in the not too far future. It isn't technically perfect, yet (and it is not available for Mac), but some of the user demos on the Synful website are yaw dropping (although not everyone is gifted with the same amount of compositional talent).
Considering the affordable price and the version 1.0 stage this software is in, it won't be long for pro and amateur music aficionados will be toying around and start creating stunning mock-ups.
Last but not least: don't forget to take a look at the credentials of the guy behind this all...
