I tried it too. Looks pretty cool ! But I have never liked the idea that
virtual versions of classic synths and keyboards have to have the same
looks as the originals. It is nice to look at but I'm not sure if all
those nice graphics, with sliders and buttons, and with wood en metal
colors and shadows make it easier to handle if I'm working behind a
computer screen with mouse and keyboard. I prefer a simple and boring but
functional user interface. But don't listen to me. I'm the kind of guy who
prefers the commandline above the graphical bloat that's so popular these
days ( That's why I don't like Mac OSX and Vista. But that's another
offtopic discussion )
