Thanks for the tips.

SaviHost is rather basic but it led to to it's bigger brother VSTHost. Unfortunately I can see no way of changing tempo mid song and the 'performance' saving is a chore because the Jamstix preset has to be saved seperately.

Anyhoo I'll check out Forte.

Cheers chaps

For payware, also consider Reaper. Lots of features and a nice price at US$40.

Yeah, I actually own Reaper but I'm looking for something more lightweight for live use. Do any of you guys actually use Reaper in a live situation?
