Version reviewed: 1 on Windows

10/10 all round.

Sounds fantastic, looks great.

The supplied presets are tremendous and the ability to load dx7 sysex patches is a big plus.

Sounds just like the real thing...only better.

Try the demo and you will want one...

In particular, I liked the Eurosynth preset...instant Jump by Van Halen...

Buy it....!

Summary
=======

Pros
----

1. Sounds absolutely fantastic (quite bright)
2. Very nice sustain pedal on/off simulation
3. Very playable (expressive)
4. Sound and key velocity reponse curve can be tailored
5. Nice key release resonance

Cons
----

1. Slower to load than other vsti's
2. Users more resources (RAM/Disk IO) than other vsti's
3. Audio export (render) is painfully slow (30-40 minutes for a 5 minute MIDI recording on a PIII-1Ghz).
4. There is no "standalone" mode and it needs an ASIO2 wrapper.
5. The room resonance option sounds awful and it is better left off to be honest.

Other comments
==============

My one major complaint with this vsti plugin is the amount of time it takes to do an audio export. It is too slow to be used in a practical situation (5 minutes of MIDI takes 30-40 minutes to render on a PIII-1Ghz PC).
