Thanks Scratcher and marpro for your guy's kind words. That's extremely sweet of you. However, I actually was able to find out where I went wrong and realized that it wasn't the media files; what you downloaded and heard is likely the version it should be.
What happened was I tried opening the .mid files with NWC2 and playing them on that program. The problem that I realized is that Noteworthy was not familiar with any notation imputted into the .mid, for .mid is not an extension for notation file like Noteworthy or Finale is. So, it had to translate the music produced by the wave file to create it's own notation. When it did that, the final product contained a lot of missing dynamics and made-up notes; I'm guessing that the program wasn't made to be able to translate crescendos, accelerando's, staccato's and such from any given sound of music at the absence of an already existing notation. So, when I played these products back in NWC2, the music was bland and liveless. I thought at first that this is what the music will actually sound like regardless of what program is used to play it. Then, I dragged the .mid's into Window's Media Player and learned that that wasn't the case: I received the quality of music that these files originally had. Complicated (right??
) problem solved!!
My only problem now is that on this new laptop, I often have a hard time hearing the bass, but I think I'll save this discussion for Hewlett-Packard's forum regarding technical issues.
Thanks again for all of your guy's response. *hugs*
