Actually, I think it was a demo.  It was the only one I found on the NI
site, and only played the demo sample library, which was really limited.

I had only tried it because I've had virtually no luck getting
Linuxsampler working in Windows.  It requires the ASIO drivers, and the
only one of those I have is a free one called something like ASIO4ALL or
something equally silly, and it kind of works, but has HORRIBLE latency
and takes a ton of CPU when it's loaded.
