Gordon.

re 'fiddly'...you hit the nail on the head.
the reason i suggest it would be nice to have a product like coyo but with better gm sounds is i'm not trying to be selfish but i'm coming from the perspective of a new user.

i suspect you are like me and like the tech challenge of 'digging' re tech. but many people/musos i note on the net and new songwriters want 'gimme now'.
without digging or even reading the manual often...lol.

(i wish someone would gimme the new uk caterham car gordon.
gotta wait for a lottery win...lol.)

thus i'm coming from the marketing perspective of how to satisfy the 'gimme now' market for music apps etc etc.

one reason i like coyo when useing rb is i find a midi style demo i like...
then load up the demo in rb tracks view and voila coyo is loaded with patches on the tracks and away i go then entering my own chord song arrangement. someone in pg was really thinking when this was implemented.
kudos to them.
in other daws ive tested ive got to futz around with plugins sometimes and setting up patches etc etc blah blah.
in summary the use of coyo/rb allows me to work fast when the muse strikes.

in summary i hope people see why i like coyo when i want to work fast.
i would just like some of the gm sounds to sound better.
sometimes i fluke it with coyo..for example i was creating a song a few weeks back and lo and behold it gave me a nice piccolo sound that cranked me up.

imho those pg midi styles are a 'goldmine' for getting ideas down fast and laying out a chord sheet song skeleton/bed guide tracks for a new song.
plus i have sooo many tracks and track generation options in rb it gives me loads of flexibility to get a rough demo going/flushing out a song.
(also i can gen drum fills/solos in rb easily useing tricks.)

i hope i make some sense gordon. to come back to your 'fiddly' comment.
thats what frustrates me with some plugins....ie 'fiddly'.
i'm a simple soul...lol. give my regards to blighty.

happiness.
