Thanks Sean,
The White Grand is awesome.  I emailed them to see if an EXS version is in
the works and if it is possible to roll back some of those layers so it can
actually be used with other instruments in something slightly smaller than a
NASA supercomputer.  I listened to the C7 and I like it, but I think the
White has the edge.

I may try the Bosendorfer virtual for the concert piano sounds and later, if
EXS version becomes available, get the White for everything else.

Thanks for the tips!

James
