Yes, still around 30 degrees, and it will remain so for some time. I believe
it's colder and wetter as you ascend into northern Europe. :)

I don't think I'll ever buy a software instrument. Those Akai's are like
software samplers, but built into hardware. They use DIMMs instead of
unavailable and expensive SIMMs. They support 24 bit, 96 kHz sampling.
They're small. And they look like an Elektrix.
Anyway, would anyone here prefer a software analogue modelling synth over
the AN1x? Even the PLG150AN is just one step too far for me.
