yes, i want VST & Direct-x SEND fx too, i already asked them about adding that, i'm sure they will add it tho - i find the sequencer layout screen easier myself tho. also for now, like with the big-3 you can process a sound thru a insert fx then reload it as a sampler loop ! - AND IT LOADS AND PLAYS ALL FORMAT WAV FILES INCLUDING MPG... direct loading of mpeg audio into sampler & drumboxes !!

last night i tried the SC-Developments sc-drums & the sc-monopoly & the sc-sh101 - wow !! - that sh101 is amazingly good... genuine sounding fat pumping sh101 sub-bass patterns... you'd know the sound i mean if you heard it... (and it's a red sh101 ha ha!!)

waldorf plugin works great and is less hungry than the other plugins ive tried, also Im waiting (rather impatiently) for SimSynth to become a vst plugin or at least polyphonic, because you just cant get those glassy yummy sounds from anywhere else

I'm sure the PRO version, which is said to ship next month, will have all the features on everybody's wish list. I think the mixer should have some groups and a seperate sub mixer window like vst.

It does sound amazing...

found this about Orion Pro:

"The full version will be below $100, haven't yet decided whether the
MultiOut/ASIO thing (if implemented) will go separately. If yes,
then the upgrade would be cheaper.

here's the feature-list (subject to change!)

- MIDI generator
- Audio tracks in playlist
- Groove Slicing in sampler (maps slices to keys)
- Arpeggiator for all modules (except drums, but including VST2)
- new high-quality Reverb effect
- new high-quality distortion effect (includes a gain control, Bones

- X-Delay effect

and maybe:
- more sends
- multi-outs/ASIO
- extended drum module, possibly later (might go into 1.6/1.7 as well)

One thing the pro version will NOT do is deliver great performance-
if you want that, gotta wait for 1.7, or get a new CPU

The goal of the pro version(s) is really to get it pro, not fast.
Just mentioning it, in case people get over-excited

)
Note that this affects the Reverb/Distortion effects alone, the
rest works just as fast as Orion, also the multiout shouldn't cause
major performance penalty."

Hell yes! Now if they just add real hard disk recording, it will be the only program I need! I still havn't been able to get REASON to work yet (rewire problems, their 'fix' program didn't work for me). Do you guys have that too? I would like to know how the sounds compare. Seem like they would make a pretty good team...
