Yeah, and even the presets are inaccessible on most new softsynths, unless you 
have a sighted person help you, or can get someone to make hotspot clickers for 
loading presets.

  Wow, then you got lots of options, most synths now days come with hundreds if 
not thoughsands of presets... they are all usually found on the GUI of the 
synth itself, though some older ones are still using the midi track properties 
to access them, in other words, bank and patch changes...  Not to mention the 
fact that if you have a friend who is up for the task of making presets for 
you, then you are good to go! I will warn you  though, many of the new native 
instruments stuff is virtually impossible to get to because they are using the 
bitmapped images to make menus and lists which are not accessible by us at all!

    What kind of sounds are you looking for?  I mean there are different types 
of synths with different focuses... Spectrasonic's Trilogy for example is 
basses sounds, Spectrasonic's atmosphere is a bunch of pad, ambience sounds, 
atmospheres lol and things of that nature...  Dimension and hs are more of the 
general synth which have a bit of everything...there are others like pro53, 
absynth from native instruments, fm7, etc that are techo/electronic music 
related, etc...there are a few others out there...it also depends on what you 
consider accessible.  Presets is enough or do you want to have complete or some 
control over parameters and stuff...

    The stineberg hypersonic 2 is the most accessible soft synth I have. The 
lounge lizard, and dimention pro are usable, but not nearly as nice. I know 
when i upgrade to sonar 6 dimention will get better, 
    but i'd like to know what your using that's very user friendly. I was 
thinking about getting trilogy. But if there's something that's real easy to 
use I'd like to know about it.
    Thanks for any feedback.
