It would, wouldn't it? Unfortunately the logistics makes that unlikely. That multiplies the amount of time and work I have to do. Think about this. (I have said this before, btw.)
If I gave you guys everything you've asked for, you would have me doing:
- An ultrasonic track.
- An infrasonic track.
- A masked track with trickling stream.
- An ocean surf track.
- A thundering rainstorm track.
- A crackling fire track.
- A masked/ultrasonic hybrid track, which doubtless would need to be in all four of the masking tracks to please you guys.
- MP3 compressed versions of each stage of each of the above.
- FLAC compressed versions of each stage of each of the above.
- AAC compressed versions of each stage of each of the above.
Now, consider this... for a single stage title, just one... that's 22 tracks! And then we look at 6 stagers, with a refresher stage, and that goes to 22*7=154 tracks!
You know that every new addition for options is multiplying my work load, right? And that as things advance I have less and less time because my work becomes more and more difficult, challenging and complex?
So sure, it would be awesome. But it's not going to happen, because I'm struggling to do everything already. Maybe there will be a way to automate production in ways like that in the future. Right now, it's not reasonable. Sorry, man.
