Once you learn the program, the interface makes perfect sense. Press F2 and you have the page for Zones and samples, etc. There is also a button bar to the right (customizable) that lets you call up any page, and keyboard shortcuts allow you to avoid even these buttons. The pages can be either docked in a rack view or allowed to take up the entire page. Some people may have had trouble with it because the program can do so much, and it presents separate pages for each major set of parameters, such as Filters, Amp, Banks, etc, with many buttons on each page. I'm not sure that there needs to be a new version of this software-it does almost everything. However, it supports external VST effects, so that problem can easily be solved. The last version came out in January of 2006. (Halion 3 seems to have taken some of its interface design from VSampler.) I've returned to VSampler recently, after learning more about sampling, and I find that it has by far the best interface and the best ability to modulate parameters. I moved away from it and into VSTI's and experimented for some time with Kontakt and others. (Notice that all of the reviewers below were using an older version of the software.) VSampler was my first softsampler.
