Thanks! It looks like the link to the Ketron demos is down though. That Forte is a marked improvement in sound for a very few bucks, although the melody instruments do still sound very "keyboardy", but perhaps that's the nature of the beast? I know that when I recorded with my old Proteus units I had to approach the melodies pretty carefully and tweak things to make strings and horns sound convincing. So BIAB is playing off the GM instruments in a given synth, or is that tweakable too? And would a sampler like Kontakt be appropriate to use? I really gotta get through this manual! Although I can't find anything addressing this issue in it yet. I appreciate this forum, you folks have been very helpful!
