On the Mac side there's a very useful utility called Cocktail www.macosxcocktail.com that cleans all the caches (internet too) as well as runs the cron scripts (daily/weekly/monthly maintenance) and repairs disk permissions. I'm sure that there must be something similar on the Windows side. Hope

This is but one of many range peculularities in GPO. That one is very odd, becaue there are four bass clarinet samples, and all have the same low-range limit. Bass clarinets either stop at low Db or Bb (concert pitch), never B. Perhaps you could load a contrabass clar sample in another
