I've got a room full of synths and drum machines and samplers, so the core current offering is maybe a bit faster than what I already have, but not _different_.

What I _need_ is something that creates melodies, tones and textures that I _can't_ get from the gear I have: a brass ensemble playing into a Neuman u87 made in the 60s; a guitarist and flautist playing something soft and spooky; vocal chops. The stuff that people sample from film scores and then try to process so far that they can't be sued.

I couldn't see a way to get such sounds from your service. It looks like it only generates sounds I can already make with my existing gear and skills. Am I using it wrong, or am I not your target market?

Agreed with your sentiments! To answer your question: you are correct we currently do not support this. The next version of our product will be focused on stems, much closer to what you are asking for.
