    Ah, I see. There is a way to alter tempo without altering pitch, but you need to have a working knowledge of e.g. Audacity.

    I really appreciate all of your feedback.

    As for Jupiter, I consider it to be the weakest track. I'm making some revisions to it.

    About tempos: The tempos are fluid and constantly changing. The tempos in Mars are based on the Steinberg / BSO performance, which is my favorite Mars, and the fasted one that I know. I like Mars fast, and since electronic music can "play" fast without getting sloppy, sometimes it's good to take advantage of that. There is a recording of Holst conducting Mars, and he took it even faster than my arrangement.

    My favorite tracks (i.e. the ones I think turned out the best) are: Venus, Saturn, and Neptune.

    I should also mention, about tempos: When you're working with software synths in a MIDI sequencer, you have complete control of tempos. It's when you're working with audio that it becomes challenging. I manipulated the tempos before generating the audio.

    Ah! Point taken but you will forgive "dad" for still considering Son's pace to be the "right" one?!!!!!
