Yes, LP bridge (LPB2) is a really cool tool for the Windows user. I use it on 
Win 8.1 under VMware Fusion on an iMac. It allows me to run NAP3 and Log4OM at 
the same time with my KX3. Be aware, however, that is is a Windows-only 
program; there is no Mac or Linux version out there, as far as I know.
