MessageBoy I do wish they could have more happy accidents like the stineberg.

  Soft synth developers don't value keystroke driven interfaces.  They focus 
more on the sounds they make and never think about the ease of use that key 
commands provide. As a result, the synths that we can use are that way by total 
accident.

    Bummer! I agree with Omar hypersonics sounds Strings, drums, pianos, beter 
for the most part than dimension. Plus, you can go to the patches, arrow down, 
and play the sound right away, don't have to hit enter to load the darned thing 
up. It's just very nice. My gosh for only 200 plus bucks, it's just a deal. I 
just bought trilogy, and am waiting to use that. I looked back at an earlier 
post from Gordon, and realize now, that I'll have to use the jaws curser, page 
up, and a control insert find, total, left click, just to get to a tree view 
that I can down arrow through, and when I get a sound i wanta hear, I get to 
hit enter and wait for it to load up. This is the kind of thing, I'd sorta like 
to not have to do. Call me lazy. Call me impatient. If stineberg can do this, I 
jsut can't believe that at least one or two other companys aren't doing 
something similar. I mean trilogy does look easier than dimension, but 
certainly not as slick as the stineberg, I guess the sounds themselves will 
make it worth it,. Hope so.

      Hey Greg I just thought I'd tell you CT 6 doesn't make dimension a whole 
lot easier. There are some advantages, but you'll need lots of patience to 
figure it all out.

        Well I do like some things about dimension but really, if it's not a 
lot easier to use with sonar 6 I'll be quite disappointed. Right now for the 
amount of whoops I have to jump through to use the darned thing, well I 
wouldn't buy it again. This is why I really want to make sure that anything 
else I get, is just about as easy to use as the stineberg. I live near 
sweetwater sound but when I went down for a visit, they didn't have anything 
set up I could listen to soft synth wise. but even if they had, I guess i 
wouldn't know how easy to use it would be less I had it set up here. I suppose 
the best way to check stuff out, is by downloading demos. I sure hope when 
someone comes accross something that's super user friendly they'll make a point 
of letting us all know.

          I really don't get it, all those instruments, 8 gigs beeing used, and 
I only find myself using guitars once in a while, or maybe a lead or synth here 
and there...but seriously, I think they could of done a better job of 
things...Hypersonic with 1.5 gigs has some instruments that blow dimension out 
of the water!  But o well, I guess to each his own, its all about the taste I 
guess...

          D!J!X!

          Yeah I have hypersonic 2 also, and i like it as well. I actually like 
it better than dimension pro. I was disappointed with dp's sounds over all.

            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.
