Thanks for sharing the new of this Soundfont software You are using!! Yes, it's so annoying to sample everithing step by step. Maybe, some gentle soul made some free sample packs, and on the other side, if they are not free, maybe they have a reasonable price..... A free M1000 vst, would be so exciting anyway, but so far, we have as a freeware OP-X FREE, a very basic version of the OP-X, Oberheim Ob-X virtual counterpart. Not the same thing, but.... But... Am I wrong, or there is already out there a commercial Matrix 1000 softsynth version
Or is it only an editor
Just for curiosity....
Cheers,
Francesco.

I use the BassMIDI soundfont player, which provides
a lot of control options and can do some very useful things.
But I'm not looking forward to having to sample every
sound from both a Matrix 6r and a Matrix 1000, 1100 patches,
across at least 61 keys to get several huge sound banks
that would require a lot of memory in a machine to load the
sounds, so though that has some possible value it's not
optimum. I'll do that if I have to, but I'd rather
not.
Any free VST or, preferably, stand alone player would be
great. (I'll have to use a VST interface like VST Host
for my current setup, as QWS, my current sequencer,
doesn't have VST support)
