Thanks! I don't know much about the soft module/synth subject... What 
I'm really looking for is a soft/hard module with good acoustic and 
old keyboard sounds... 

>>>Ah, you definitely don't want Plex then, it's more for weird sounds and 
shit you've never heard before. <<<

I'm not much of a synthhead...  I'm quite happy in that deparment with my 
XL-7, the ES1/2 in logic 5 and the 
free stuff I've downloaded like crystal 2. I just mess with the parameters 
til i get something I like... Mostly atmospheric sounds and some 
background melodies/harmonies. Where I'm not fully happy is with the 
acoustic pianos (and strings for the most part)... Any advice on that 
deparment?

>>>If you want to keep it in the XL-7, I'd suggest a P2500 Rom (otherwise 
known as the Proteus Pop ROM) which is exactly what I use for those types 
of sounds.  Otherwise, in terms of software you could maybe go with 
Sampletank and a bread and butter collection of samples they offer.  In 
terms of hardware, maybe something like a Roland JV1010, or a used 
XV-2020?  Going to be hard to find hardware that cheap though, even used. 
My vote would be for the ROM. <<<
