Sequential circuits samplers

Drumware's GenWave and of course Sound-Designer. Plus Sample maker and 
SoftSynth. I have Turbosynth too, but have not tried it yet on the P2000.

There is a pull down menu, and you can select your sampler. So it is a 
specic driver.

yes

Yes

An Atari Falcon and TT030 ...so thats a real Atari :-)

This makes me wonder if there are parameters I should set on the P2000 
itself, just like on a DX7, you have to enable sysex and set it to the 
correct Recieve channel, and have memory protect to off. Don't know if the 
P2000 has the equivelent (although I did notice it responds to patch change 
command when running my sequencer.)

Really? I have been getting reports that it works great. Myself, I only use 
the internal soundcard, but I should try it .
