Still, the Tyros4 does an admirable job for my needs.

Muse receptor is one of those things that removes the hassle from using VSTs..

Once you created a new sound, just save it in your muse playing list... and it works just like any other module on stage, send midi program changes and use that most awesome piano...

it just takes loads of times to set up....


Early last year, one of the guys using the studio brought in a Neko 64 but we didn't get the chance to use it and used our now since retired Roland Jupiter 8 instead. He was wanting analog strings, and the Roland did the job very nicely so I did not get a chance to hear the Neko.

Have you ever used a Neko or something similar?
