I just bought 1.5 and am completely blown away by it. Note: the 1.5 DVD has ~4GB of samples on top of the ~2GB that are now downloadable. Pretty high-quality stuff, too.

With respect to interface, sound quality, tweakability, etc. - I’m not convinced that I will ever turn my A3000v2 back on. It’s that good.

Seems very stable to me, and the upgraded features are most welcome.

Also comes with several gigabytes (yes, you read that right) of downloadable loops, kits, settings, etc. that are new for the 1.5 version. It takes a while to get, but again, most appreciated.

I’ve got a Korg padKontrol and the auto-slice and assign to pads is perfect for such controllers. I’ve always sucked at programming drum beats, but this combination of the padKontrol and Guru has be close to the point of respectability. Well, at least where the drumming is concerned.

Guru’s getting more tempting… but I kinda wish FXpansion would have devoted the same kind of effort to getting Drum Nine completed.

How is the stability? FX is kinda known for having great… but buggy software.
