My Song Created Using A Virtual Vocalist Vocaloid 2

The piece I did with vocaloid seemed to go down quite well on youtube, and my friends liked it, despite the limitations, but...

Just for the sheer fun of it, I posted a thread on vocaloid 2 on the forum of East West Virtual instruments.

Now maybe that was asking for trouble, as the people on there seem to be seriously into the production side of music (ie. "those string samples could have been panned and put through a limiter", etc)- and many are obviously aspiring film composers.

They gave me a bit of a hard time over it, to be honest, despite my insistence on the piece being a demo only - and it just goes to show that not all forums are as friendly as here.

To these people, the idea of reviewing a raw midi file would be complete anathema !

So if you're interested, here is the response from the music technos

I'm beginning to doubt my own ears now - as apart from the vocals' obvious limitations, I didn't think the production was THAT bad.

Is there anybody here who knows about production who would give it a quick listen to put my mind at rest or otherwise ?
