Well I'm thinking of getting battery (or dr008 if its ever for the mac) as well as EXS. The advantages? Browsing samples to create kits is easy and fast, and it treats each drum sample as an instrument with individual envelope and settings rather than like exs where its common to the whole mapped kit. Download the demo to play and see for yourself. ~Pev _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
