Truthfully I liked the older one better. The new one is just a bit over the top or something, the overdrive just doesn't sound authentic to me, they tried too hard or something. It does have eq and reverb and stuff, but I think the older one sounded more like a B3.

That's also how I use many of the older semi-accessible ni stuff such as thefirst 3 absynths and fm7, choose a preset, then with assigned controllers either through midi learn or through assignable controlls I controll the finer aspects in greater detail.Hey Gord, how does that new b3 compare to the older 1? There's a demo of it on my fm7 cd, but it's the older one I guess, since it was from a few years ago, 2004 or 5 was when I got the fm7 cd... Or is that the "new" one you arespeaking of?

I select a preset from the b4 propertieswindow that is close to what I want. I have assigned the parameters that Ineed to change, such as all the upper manual drawbars and other stuff like key click, overdrive, leslie speeds, etc. in the synth rack. The original b4 had a template for the evolution uc33 controller but the new b4 II does not. However, nearly every parameter does have midi controller numbersassigned to it so that if you have a midi controller like one of the edirol pcr series or even the motif xs, you should be able to control the drawbarsand such.

Please describe how you use it, what is accessible and what is not.

GET AT IT! GET ON IT! Announcing the Latest CakeTalking for SONAR from Dancing Dots John: The support for 3rd party plug-ins and synths is still the same. It would be virtually impossible to script for the hundreds of plugs out there, and each one has its own interface and issues to deal with. Some folks are working with Hot Spot Clicker and developing sets for specific synths and effects. Keep in mind though that you can access most parameters in the track inspector or synth rack.
