Yes, the S-3000 format (including our Groove Control products and Vocal 
Planet), are working fine since the 4.5.1 update. 

A little hint to EXS crowd, try boosting the Output Level up to 0db after 
converting from AKAI CD-ROMs. This sounds MUCH better for drums and grooves 
(and most sounds actually). This parameter is ONLY on the Controls page and 
not on the standard Editor panel. The EXS defaults at -12db which sounds much 
thinner than necessary. Future EXS versions may have a headroom parameter 
adjustable from the Akai conversion page to save the hassle of currently 
having to tweak and resave every current Instrument.

Backbeat will hopefully be out before years end. Vocal Planet epic 5 CD-ROM 
set finally finished and shipping very soon!
