Thanks for the feedback, Eric. BTW, I got a proper demonstration of
full-working (licensed) versions of Stylus and Atmosphere. Seeing them in
their full bloom was, to be understated, superb. I'm a very anti-loop-based
artist, hence my original apprehension over the value of Stylus to me. What
I found intriguing about Stylus, other than the amazingly fat, analog sound
it projects, is that I could quickly scan for loops in the family of what
I'm looking for mentally/emotionally and then reprogram the hell out of it
with the greatest of ease and speed, and concluding with a completely
original rhythm sequence. I suppose I understood this in theory before, but
manipulating the interface myself brought the experience to life. It's a joy
to use in my control-freak world, a useful tool for someone who never uses
prefab loops for the core of any song in my personal work. Note: This isn't
a judgment on people who use loops, just a personal conviction with regard
to my own creativity.

And Atmosphere is drool-worthy to be sure, a veritable necessity in the
types of music I create. When my wallet allows, I'm going for both and grab
Trilogy as well when it becomes available. What cinches my decision is your
plan to support Audio Units as a free upgrade (correct me if I'm wrong).
Beautiful work by Spectrasonics! I had never considered purchasing these
tools. Now I have to figure out how I can live without them for a bit. Ouch!
