Hello Joeri! It seems like you havn\ufffdt heard the Xtrem Analogue from Emagic?? I know people are using the CD as a complement if you don\ufffdt own Roland Matrix 12 for example.. So I\ufffdm not sure about your point Joeri?? And I also wonder if you are not using the EXS for sounds what do U use it for?? I only use my EXS for sounds and not for having sex with my girlfriend or something like that! *just kidding* Best regards, Alvaro Villalobos. Ps. I have found a free VST piano for some time ago and it sound superb so I\ufffdm not sure that you have to buy everything for using it with Logic.
