Hi Susan. I just did a jazz gig with a killer "Saxmaam" named Yolanda. It's good to see some lady players around. There's another one I work with occasionally in a big band too.

Any of the recent Biab versions play just fine under Win 7. It's only the VSC DXi synth that won't work on a 64 bit system. If your system is 32 bit then the VSC (included with your Biab 2010) will be your decent starter synth. Note you have to install it separately, it's on the install CD. Not the greatest but workable lots of us used it for years. If you have a 64 bit system then you're stuck with your on board sound chip and that's not too hot but Biab works fine with it.

Before you go out and buy either a software or hardware synth, understand what General Midi (GM) is.
