Kurzweil PC2. Works great!

And only $2700. GREAT organ sounds, replete with draw bars. Great piano feel and many other features. Just do it...

well,
if you buy the drawbars soundpack from NI it costs only $59. you only have to install the free kore player..

lol..

Haha, the Kurzweil PC3X is about the same price and 10x better (based on what would have been the 2700).

Check audio demos for that NI Kore soundpack -- I think that's the one based on other electric organs vs. B3, but could be wrong. Their B4 II is physically modeled, whereas the Roland and other 60's electric organs are sampled (in Kontakt, that is).

And the PC2 was better than the PC88 for the same $$$. Isn't that the way it goes?

I've been saying it over and over again. VB3 from GSI instruments. blows my mind!!!
And VERY good bang for the buck...

How's the compatibility of the freeware ZR-3 with DP these days?

[mhschmieder]

If you can get VB3 to work. I had to delete it post haste due to how severely it corrupted my system. Maybe they've worked out the kinks since, but my recollection is that the GSI products are not PPC-friendly.

[Dwetmaster]

Indeed VB3 doesn't work with DP right out of the box.
But it's so good I had to find a host for it. Thanks to Plogue Bidule, now I can happily use it with DP...

[mhschmieder]

Ah yes, sorry for the confusion. I forgot the issue wasn't PPC's per se, but using their products within DP.
