Oh you definitely want to have knobs and faders.  Many of the gpo instruments 
use the mod wheel for expression, because you are supposed to play parts with 
one hand making it less likely to play orchestral instruments as if you were 
playing a keyboard.

  Thank you for your reply. I have one more question. You said There is 
extensive midi control over expression and pan how would I do that with my 
keyboard or would I have to enter the midi control values in the event view? My 
controller doesn't have knobs and faders so would I need to have one with knobs 
and faders to experience the full potential of GPO?

   

  If it would take entering the midi control values in the event view, is there 
a list where I can get with the different midi controls and what they do? I 
have never needed to know the midi control numbers before. 

   

  May the peace of God that passes all understanding guard your heart and mind 
in Christ Jesus

  God Bless You!

  You should be fine after installing it.  You will need to use your jaws 
cursor to click on the channel slots to load instruments into them, but that 
should be it.  There is extensive midi control over expression, pan, and (if 
you want to use them), the included reverb, though I would advise that you use 
an external plug, the quality of the reverb isn't very good.  But the 
instruments sound great and load quickly.

    Okay other than I'll need sited assistance to install it, what other if any 
issues will I have with it. Strongly considering buying it but since I don't 
have much sited assistance, I'm trying to eliminate as many surprises as 
possible.

      Is it completely accessible? Will I need sited help to get it installed? 
Will I need someone to help me get templates up from it? Where can I hear some 
demos? 

      Wow just $149 that's very reasonable.

      The Garritan gpo4 package is excellent.  It is much more accessible than 
the previously kontak-basedd packages were.  We can load instruments into the 
16 slots, and there is extensive midi control over many of its parameters.  The 
sounds are wonderful, especially when you consider the price comnpared to the 
east/west stuff.

        Hi all.  Has anyone got their hands on GPO 4 yet?  If so, how are 
things on both the sound and the accessibility side?

         

        Looking for a good orchestral package an while the east west stuff 
sounds fantastic, it's not useable as far as I can gather.

         

        Thanks,

         

        Cameron.
