Thanks to all for the kind words.  For Charles and others that might be
interested, below is a link to my salsa band's web site.  If you click on
the demos link, there are a couple of songs there.  The salsas are being
played live, but the one merengue and 2 bachatas are all sequenced.  The
merengue is with the Karma, but both bachatas are entirely from the XS.
Heavy chorus effect on the lead guitar because that's the norm for bachata
lead guitar.  I used a nylon string guitar sound because it sounded better,
but it's supposed to be steel strings.  Here's the link:

Yeah, Jose knows what he's doing. He's sent me some Bachata tracks he
did and I was extremely impressed! Keep it up Jose!
