no Dikki. The only reason for the long boot up is because i have loaded into the instrument new samples that did not come with the instrument. The load up time takes into account a maxed out sample ram memory (32mb)which takes just under 2 mins. Compare that to the T2 that takes 7 minutes to boot up with sharpes evolution piano that again uses the same maximum sample ram of 32mb. I dont know how many new samples are used in the update but it boots up much more quickly if you dont need to use the additional sampling power that i have.it takes approx 15 secs
