Hi Tim,
For all those out there like me that don't have access to a sampler
but have a good pc and sound card; try GMedia's M-tron. You need
a VST 2.0 compliant host (eg Cubasis 4.0 for £40 or so and M-tron
for £50 approx and off you go!) I've never heard Pinders CD or any
others to compare it with but being able to compare real tron and
virtual tron side by side it sounds ok to me. I'd be interested to hear
opinions for others if anyone has it.
