I bought FMheaven- it's great (imports dx7 patches very well)- I've
even imported s an old TX7 bank I made long ago.
I can't reccomend it enough. Every revision has Cool new
features.

I'm using Cubase 5.0 (Mac). I'll keep an eye on cesSynth3.

Just reinforces the notion that the simplest design works best.
The AN1x doesn't try to do everything- it just does a few good
things really well- So in your studio full of gear- that's why you
keep reaching for the AN1x (old reliable).
