Absolutely. The 2.1 update comes with Vox, Farfisa, a couple of different EPs and an (quite unusable, as far as I could find out…I still think I was missing something) electric bass sound, you can access those using shift, then one of the percussion buttons.

What I meant is that you can actually install many different VST hosts and instrument onto the Mojo (basically anything that runs on windows xp), including the standard VB3 1.4 (wich has Vox and farfisa as well, but no EPs and no e.bass). The problem with VB3 1.4 is that you can't change to the Vox or to the Farfisa via midi, so there is no immediate way to switch instrument if you don't have a screen and a mouse connected. You can overcome this problem in many ways, such running multiple instances of VB3, one per each instrument.
Of course anything different from VB3CE2 is completely unsupported by Crumar…And actually I don't recommend that procedure, since it would double the resource usage and you may end up with delays or missing/sticky notes…

Right now I'm running VB3 1.4 on Cantabile Lite (becouse I still prefer that sound for the music I play most and because I've grown addicted to the flexibility of having both an handswitch and and footswitch for the leslie, something that's still not doable on the version included with the Mojo) it has performed quite well in the past few months.
