Hi Craig,
   Thanks for that.  The M3 is a great tool for any musician.  Of 
course, it's big brother, the OASYS is truly amazing, even though it 
may be a bit hard on the pocket book at the moment.
   Yes, Stephen is overworked; so, I have to let him set his own 
timetable for our collaborations.  By the looks of it, many M3 (and 
OASYS) owners are waiting for Catalyst to hit the streets.  I guess 
we'll have to be patient a little longer.
   Sounds like you have yourself set up nicely as well.
Cheers,
Eric
