Sorry to hear this experiences, but one thing is programing an universal editor, without having support from the hardware [of course they shouldnt promise things never happens] manufacturing, and another thing is deliver hardware without an grafic editor... i think we displace the problem if we talk bad about squest, and we dont mention emu. most of the equipment nowadays got an grafic editor, and it should have, i think the problem is that emu doesnt care too much about that issue, if they dont have programmers they could by a license from proteum or at least give a machine to squest, so they can write the instrument definition [they only need it a time, then they gonna give it back]... anyway... i would prefer get the instrument delivered with an editor... >From: "Mike-E" <d_jumpmaster@...> >Reply-To: xl7@yahoogroups.com >To: xl7@yahoogroups.com >Subject: [xl7] Re: Chip IDs / Midi Quest >Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2004 07:46:20 -0000 > >I early bought version 9.0 and it should have VST support (it could >run as a VST).
