Protean definitely, since the primary use of my XL is as a drum machine. Then at some point I may fill it out with the Vintage and perhaps TSCY roms, just to have some more synth flavors. I was eyeing the orchestral roms too, but I really just want lots of solo and ensemble strings, which I can't get in a single rom, and the reviews have not been as glowing as for the other roms, so I'll probably look elsewhere for that at some point.
