As God's my witness i wasn't directing my post towards anyone Miles, and that's the truth. I was simply meaning people in general (not you) and that includes me as well, and you too if you are, i know i'm pretty stupid lots of time.

Thanks for your clarification although I knew your comment wasn't directed at me. I was replying to someone else's posts, one of which I quoted.

I'm not MENSA material and definitely make my share of mistakes.

However, I spent plenty of time (weeks) with Translator Soundfont Edition and am absolutely certain that it wasn't user error. It worked so poorly for me that I kept contacting Garth and his solution was to stop responding. I tried every possible way to get it to work, and even did a fresh install of Win XP twice. The program crashed so bad and frequently that I suspected my computer was at fault, but a clean install didn't make any difference. I'm pretty good at working around minor bugs, and have never had this much trouble with any other software.

Yeah i noticed that after i had already made my post.
Well, the past is the past, software/hardware is screwy, and programmers are sometimes at fault as well as end users, life goes on right. Regardless of who's right or wrong, gives good or bad support and/or promises, smart or dumb, let's just forgive, forget, learn, and move on. Life's to short to spend another moment in long threads as this, which, in the big picture of things, robs us of time needed to make some really cool music.

Miles, we're on the same page. I simply gave up about 2 years ago. Their solutions didn't work, and I found myself doing a lot of work that I believe they should have done, before releasing the product. What really blew my mind, was the fact that they did not immediately patch one particular version that contained known problems, which would eat the machines resources, until Windoze had enough. At that point, so did I. They should have at least sent an e-mail to the community, informing them of what was wrong, saving many users lots of time. Their subjective forum entertains only that which reflects what they choose.

I don't have the patience or the bandwidth to get into a sparring contest with Chicken-man, simply put. However, I will very openly state that Translator is the buggiest and most frustrating piece of music softare that I own. Even if I wait it out for a new version, it always ends up the same- I find new problems that eat up hours of my time and I never seem to get everything translated. Ergo, I'm out. I've eaten what I've paid for it and have moved on. Pardon, me, if I publicize my experiences on a forum, which Chicken-man cannot delete. Oh well, what goes around, comes around.
