Don't you consciously like the Glynn theme?
I like all of the themes. I've only just become aware that I subconsciously like some of them as well

To me the (I'm sticking to Derbyshire key for this) F# that bends into G always reminds me of the Delaware theme (Which I love consciously, but seem to dislike subconsciously). For some reason I always do it as

LAYER1|EEEE--|E-EE--|E-EE--|G-GG--| etc.
LAYER2|E--- D|E-- D|E--- D|G--- D| etc.

instead of the usual

LAYER1|EEEE--|E-EE--|E-EE--|G-GG--| etc.
LAYER2|E--- D|E-- D|E--- F#|G--- D| etc.
(sorry about my weird notation)

I suppose it will be like one of those things, like when I used to think
that the first note in the melody was an E, not a B. Fortunately I seemed to have
missed the stage of where you think that the wee-wah-woo chords are the same as the oo-ee-oo ones (Em, Bm) and not Em, G, Bm.

As for the sound and the velocities, as far as I can see, the CS-80v seems to completely ignore most of the velocity data on the sequence, and instead selects random velocities of random amounts of cutoff with random amounts of volume and brilliance for each note. The only way I was able to do that at all was with about 4 or 5 tracks of CS-80v for each required tone. And doing that is only a few steps away fromMusique concrète!

As for the Howell bass sample, thanks for that. It's very interesting, and since it's an original, Unfiltered Theme Component(R) I treat it as a little bit of gold.
