Don't know about that yet. I am testing a few right now. It certainly loads the
Giga Piano and the sustain pedal brings in the resonance model. In Cool Vibes
the mod wheel switches between damped and undamped and that is working too. So
far so good. :-)

For the first time I am playing it through my favourite compressors and
reverbs. Fantastic!

The EXS24 multi-out capability will be good but if we need to set up five
auxillaries for a drum kit and can't save that entire setup the advantage over
the current workarounds for EXS 24 is diminished -- at present I load multiple
copies of a drum kit or cut it into sections for easy recall. Assigning to a
set of different auxillaries is only a little quicker -- it would be great if
you could do this once and save the entire setup with named auxillaries (eg
Snare, Kick, Hats etc)
