Re: Hollywood Strings 2

I found this surprising. I thought EW was basically done with orch sampling. Maybe the (many) offers from Spitfire and OT convinced them that there were new markets for alternative products.

Re: The Happy Thread Of Free

Don’t get me wrong-it’s a great thread and I’ve happily picked up some things from it.

The problem for me is that I’m concerned about becoming a collector rather than a user. Nothing wrong with it, bytes are cheap. It just becomes kind of clogged with stuff I never use.

Free is fantastic, but I have dozens of compressors and I use 2 or 3. Amazing and confusing times.

Re: Musio - latest stuff [MUSIO 1 $199 this weekend]

I’d jump on this deal if I didn’t already have all of CineBrass, CinePerc, and so many other titles from Cinesamples that it’s hard for me to justify buying Musio 1 over other investments; but I think this is a great deal nonetheless. Because I bought the Cinesamples stuff I wanted during the glitc...

Any opinions on Voxos? (looking for reasons to justify this) I have Voxos. I haven’t used it much because I have other choir libraries I like better, and I don’t use choir that often anyway; but I don’t regret the purchase. It’s reasonably good, and it’s another option that I can choose from. I wou...

Yeah, I thought the same…but.

Voxos sounds pretty nice (prolly not as nice as Sunset Choir 😉 but nice. Is the legato programming in Musio?

Damn you, Guy Rowland.

I mean, I SO don’t need it, but your evangelism has me considering it at $199.

Re: Spitfire Symphony Orchestra - $499

That was my thinking, too, Geoff. And since I own most, but not all, of those libraries, I’m very tempted to purchase this at the discount they have offered. There are also supposed to be bug fixes, so that’s welcome news IF they’ve taken care of most of the more annoying ones. Time will tell. …and...

Re: L. A. Modern Percussion - $60 at Pulse Audio

It's a very good price. Do you have LAMP Larry? And if so, would you recommend it? I don't often need trailer or film percussion. But usually I really like Alan Meyerson's work. So I am sure I would enjoy it sonically. I'm still debating whether I want to do the work of integrating LAMP into my tem...

Re: ProjectSAM: The Free Orchestra 2

I love their freebies and I own one PS library. Their libraries always sound very high end, but I couldn’t possibly justify almost $400 for another percussion library. I do wish them much success.

Re: ProjectSAM Lineage Percussion

I don’t have True Strike, so. A little tempting.

OTOH, I recently acquired CinePerc and have barely dug into it. Think I’ll wait and upgrade Komplete whenever.

well, I think I found a working combination, namely the "Grandeur" and the "Heartstrings"... I did a patch of the latter that compresses all the velocity layers into the 1-70 range, more or less, extending the upper one to 127. Then had to manually tune the Grandeur to make it g...
