I must be misunderstanding. The box looks like it's a VST instrument. I
don;t see the app you are talking about, but it sounds like they have a

As for the qualiy, looks to me like both offer the same 8 second
samples, no looping, etc. I'd expect that they are probably pretty
similar in terms of sound.
At $45 Pounds it's pretty much the same price as String Boxes. I'd
probably go the LinuxSampler route since you're likely to be part of a
larger community and get some support, but that's just my point of view.
Good luck whatever you do.
Have fun,

Buy carefully. It isn't exactly like playing the real beast. Now that
was fun!
Yeah, that's why I want to get this thing working under Linux:

They have a app you can download now that will let you play it
standalone (no need for a VST host). If I can get that to work under
Wine, I may be able to say goodbye forever to the Windows partition on
my audio workstation.
