I realize you've gone off topic a tad, Bull, but I have to say that I have never been a great fan of Roland styles either, although some of the Latin styles are pretty good, as are the contemporary fusion types.

Yamaha styles (with their exceptionally realistic Mega Voices) are far more my cup of tea.

The Korg styles seem to be somewhere between the Yamaha and Roland, judging from those I have heard on line.

Of course, styles, like sounds and even the minutiae of different manufacturer's operating systems, are intensely subjective and personal.

The only styles I actually found lifeless were those on the Wersi instruments.
