Vquestor, yes you pointed out the option of using a separate VST for drums (soundfont xg). More and more companies are starting to provide all the options....GM, GM2, GS and XG with their synths and sequencers, eg., Sonar. I think even Roland has at least in the near past offered XG compatibility. Yes if companies provided customer service as it should be they would make life as easy as possible for the customer. One should not have to work at using products.
