Besides taking a nice sump bath,have you called MOTU to see if this might be a DP or True Keys issue?

Re: VI Labs True Keys Pianos
Well I'm wondering now that True Keys has been out a while how the VI is doing? I'm not happy with my Keyboard VI, and I'm thinking about either getting True Keys or Synthogy's American Grand.
I've been using Galaxy's "Vintage D", and the piano sounds great - but it doesn't "feel" right to me. Also, I hear weird sounds when I do repeated notes pretty fast. I've recently upgraded my computer - so, I think I have enough memory and all to handle the large libraries, but I need to find something that actually "acts" like a piano!
I've read some absolutely glowing reviews about True Keys - but, I have found that some people complain about the high-velocity tone quality. Some say the Synthogy's keyboard is hands-down better, but some say the True Keys is better. It appears like I can just download True Keys - but would have to get a copy of synthogy through snail mail.
Actually I have one of these new Macs with no DVD/CD drive - so, if synthogy is only installed from a disk, I don't know exactly how I will do it (but I assume there's a way). I'm pretty sure I will bite the bullet, but I don't know which bullet to bite!!

There are times when a DVD drive is not a luxury. They don't have to be very expensive but must be capable of reading dual-layer DVDs. Many libraries ship on DVD-DL.
Nearly impossible to find one that can't burn the same, too. All newer Macs have a USB Port.
If you have a network, there are way to share drives but this doesn't work for everything - authenticating DP 7, for example. DP 8 doesn't require a disk for authentication.
