MIDI hardware will NOT be subject to any 32/64-bit issues, GUI issues, and other SW quirks - and as long as you have a 5 PIN MIDI I/O of any kind (yes USB on PC side to 5 pin MIDI I/O is fine) you are ready to "rock." I don't want to get into the Ketron GM versus Roland GM discussion - different sounds of mostly same things but built for different users and purposes. Or a newer Roland SD-50 module it at least has an organic Win 7 driver so it might work under Win 10 as well if not than like Fantom XR it is probably easily hackable for Win 10 use. If anyone really, really wanted the Roland GM/GS sounds contained in SW SC VA (aka the 88 pro, 8820, 8850'ish sounds) go to eBay, Reverb, Craigs list, yard sales, or pawn shops and find a SC-8820 for about the same price $125 or LESS! or get an easier to use SC-8850 (it was a front panel for sound selection and programming) for about $100 more (and if lucky close to $125) - you might just want that front panel convenience.
