One thing I would like to make clear is that the hardware based solutions are good enough quality for live performances and have a better control surfaces. For studio, club work, etc. a system such as mine makes more sense....you notice the quality.

Dear Frank;

I am extrapolating form your comments above. Are you saying that by using these VST plus ins,and sampler data (giga, kontact etc) in live performance that the improved sound quality would be watsed in live-use vs. in studio use?

Is the sound quality degraded that much in live performances that one ( Players & audience) would not be able to tell the difference between hardware & software sounds banks?

I can definitely hear the differnce between them on MP3.
