Default New free digidesign synth

Has anybody used this yet? Note: it says free, but you have to pay 10$ for shipping. They have no download available.

Well, seeing as the information on the website in minimal I can't really make my decision yet. They say on one of the pages that the reason there will be no download is because of the size of the installer. I guess there could be some larger samples or something. Either way I'm gonna pass for now.

My friend Mike got his in the mail, for whatever reason they sent him two of the exact same disc. He loves it, he says it sounds great. I'll get to check it out soon.
oh and it was a completely full CD

i read about that synth. Seems alright for 10 bucks you get a virtual workstation with a whole bunch of sound presets you can tweak in ProTools. However, a lot of synths that don't have the Digidesign label backing them up already do that nowadays if you look right and they're not just RTAS compatible. However if you're using a ProTools setup its a good buy if you're looking for something such as this.

$10 shipping for a cd? that seems a bit odd. they pay less than a penny per disk, and the packaging couldn't be more than a dollar.
