I've played with both the EXS demo and the Kontakt demo.  I'm not 
gonna go into depth about their functionality, but in general, I like 
how I can use key commands in the EXS (although I wish Emagic offered 
more assignable commands for the EXS) and I like that I can use a 
common sample editor in Logic for audio tracks and EXS samples.  

Even though Emagic recently enhanced modulation in the EXS, there are 
still glaring improvements they could make (like the ability to use 
the graphic display and midi in the instrument editor to assign key 
ranges/velocity ranges, a sidebar directory for dragging and dropping 
samples (like in Kontakt).

I like the flexibility of Kontakt (although, I could get by fine with 
the modulation setup in the EXS), but I hate having to use the mouse 
for everything, and on the two machines I have, it seems like there's 
a lag time when I select a function from a menu, very annoying.

Again, I'm leaning towards the EXS, even though its features set is 
very dated compared to other products on the market, and could be 
improved greatly with a few important/much needed updates.
