>For over twenty years, music theory has tried to diversify with respect to race, yet the field today remains remarkably white, not only in terms of the people who practice music theory but also in the race of the composers and theorists whose work music theory privileges. In this paper, a critical-race examination of the field of music theory, I try to come to terms with why this is so. I posit that there exists a “white racial frame” in music theory that is structural and institutionalized, and that only through a deframing and reframing of this white racial frame will we begin to see positive racial changes in music theory. Does it refuse to get rid of dialect and variation if the race of the person processed is white? If it doesn’t it doesn’t make it white. I’m not reading the whole crazy pointless long article about more fake problems, the abstract is ridiculous enough. They complain about the company stealing cultural music, while they complain that nonwhite world music doesn’t exist and can’t be made on it. They can’t have it both ways. https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/spot... it’s just another meaningless complaint that has no bearing on reality like all their complains. How stupid are they to complain it’s both taking cultural music and not allowing people to make anything but white music? |

For it to remove any dialect, it has to consider some dialect as standard. Think about it.

Well if you're going to question-beg, then you can't really complain can you.
The rest of what you said is a different complaint than the one I answered, so you're moving the goal post but then setting up a straw man of what that person wrote when you say such music can't be made on it. They were specific in what they said and it didn't exclude the possibility of making some of it with it.
This subject is definitely something that's been discussed a lot in music lately, so apparently it's not that meaningless to many people. Adam Neely has a popular video on what people are talking about if you're curious. [1]
