As I eluded to in prior emails I was a tad redundant with the choirs, the male choir is OK but boys and women are too shrill for my taste.
The guitar harmonics are interesting and hold a lot of potential. I was expecting something a little different, but after all a lot of these were chosen years ago.
I'm sure we waited three years for the instruments if not more. I think a pedal board for some sounds (like the guitar harmonics) is in order.

No effects for me is not condusive to displaying the machine full potential for me.
I haven't fully set up because I've been house hunting for a year and a half, (optimistically) apparently too much so, sorry to say.
Looking at one tomorrow which it probably close to 40 so far.

I see you really like the Russian Choir, Orchestra, and of course the 3 Violins. Me, too. Is the 3 Violins/Cello a split? How do you like the Guitar Harmonics? I entertained that one.
