The STS 4000 for Mac does still not work anywhere near OK.It sounds awful and it constantly crashes the system.There should be an upgrade which will cure these faults but for now its a piece of crap.

I did a song about two months ago on a Macintosh with the STS 4000 and Logic Audio and the 4000 performed very well. Logic Audio kept crashing but the sampler kept running. I would just say the Sampler does need more filters and maybe a built in effect or two. And others have mentioned some other features it should have on other web sites. I agree. My complaint with Pulsar and STS 4000 is that when I save a project with an STS 4000 in it and then try to recall that project at a later date, sometimes Pulsar will crash with an error 1 or 2 and then I have to rebuild the project. After rebuilding it works fine but having to remember all my settings from a crashed project is frustrating.

I can work with it without problems, but i'm not used yet its sampling abilities (recording, editing, looping samples). It is true that is difficult to create a preset to be loaded in later Pulsar sessions (I do that saving all sounds first individually as sts4000 library, and re-saving the preset). Certainly, is not the top on handling tools hit parade, but absolutely necessary for me.
