doesn't change the point that there's no allround virtual instrument on

delivers a wide variety of decent sounds ready to be used for
straight-forward tasks)
well, if you were willing to purchase gigasampler sample libraries,
and spend a little time making sure your system configuration was all
correct, i have little doubt that you could get LinuxSampler to do
what you want. its notably lighter-weight for a sample-playback engine
than most others that handle GS formats.
however, given that gigasampler has died as a library format, and
given that sound as if you don't believe your system configuration
could possibly have any issues, i'm not sure that this solution will
work for you.
I guess the hardest part of making such a
Motif/Triton/Phantom clone is
getting some nice samples, which won't probably happen for free.
yep, precisely.
