Both of these are the best I've heard. They are VST plugins. The site is www.ikmultimedia.com Has anyone used these - if they are VST should Sonar and Band In A Box have any difficulty in accessing them? Do they relate to GM - do VST plugins need to be remapped? If so, how? Sorry for all the questions, but I must say I'm impressed with what I've heard and would like to purchase these if usable. Regards. Gordon McFarlane
