Hi Wayne,

The version of the Coyote DXi that waz put together for use with Vista/Win7 64 bit machines likely does not have the TR-808 sample bank in it. This is the way I underastand the situation: The samples ised by the Coyote for Win7 64 bit are actually taken from the Microsoft Software Synth sample bank, which comes with the Od (and are actually Roland/Edirol samples BTW) but I don't think that the MS software synth has the TR-808 samples available, boo.

*If you have a 32 bit Win7 machine, there is a good chance that the good old VSC will indeed install. Worth the shot IMO.

If not, the TTS should have not only the TR-808 in it, but also guite a few better sounding samples in its Upper Banks (Coyote does not use any Upper Banks because Microsoft doesn't have the samples).

Hopefully someone who is currently using the TTS will check it out and make certain that the TR-808 drunkit sample set is indeed available and runs fine on BiaB before you take the plunge, I seem to recall that it does but no longer use TTS here and did not install it again.

If you don't like having to grant permission to BiaB every time, you have the option of turning UAC -- User Account Control -- OFF in the Win7 OS. If unsure how to go about that, you can easily websearch for the details.
