[OC Cool]

I am just starting my discovery of the VI/Softsynth world and it's been quite stimulating. Already downloaded a demo of Albino and that was cool. I'm looking for demos of more traditional preset sounds and loops (keys, drums, strings, horns) that I can trigger through my midi device. Of course I'm also interested in exploring the cool electronica sounds too but my overall question is:

where can I download soft synth sound library, loops and synth demos before I invest hundreds of dollars on them?

Any help is appreciated.

System is:

Windows XP
1gb Ram
PIV 3.4 Hyper Thread
Pro Tools M-Powered 7.1

Already have the lite version of Ableton live and Drumcore.

Thanks.
