I own several soundfonts now. That said, I'm fairly convinced that it's mostly the MuseScore Studio engine that makes legato passages virtually impossible to obtain. That "dwaaah, dwAAAH" thing drives me nuts! And the volume changes between mp and mf is *quite* pronounced, which may be more on the soundfont developers' end to fix, along with some notes within the same dynamic range being barely audible in a mix; then when you increase the dynamic level or the mixer volume, the next note (or whatever) then dominates your mix. KrystalComp has singlehandedly easily resolved 80% of these issues! And the controls are quite straightforward, in addition to the meters being crazily easy to read. I cannot praise this app highly enough! So what are you waiting for? Get KrystalComp NOW! You're welcome.

I'll update this review if anything changes one way or another, but as far as what I was looking for..YES!! I could prob do even more with it if I use my imagination and layers properly. What else ya got in that magic bag of yours??
