Re: EastWest / Hollywood Orchestra OPUS Edition

Hi @Guy Rowland, Hmmm... So, Are you liking the EW HOOPUS Strings Sordino (fake emulation), more than the VSL Synchron Duality Strings (real) Sordino Library ? I find that a bit hard to believe, but curious to read a bit more about how you are comparing these two libraries. Thanks. I certainly like...

Re: Orchestral Tools Black Friday Sale - 50% off Main Series

A bit delayed in the sense that it is later than the intended release date (which, contrary to some speculations never was "a year ago"). I'm afraid I genuinely do not know when it will be released, could be next year, I really don't know. My impression is not that it is much delayed, hon...

Re: Orchestral Tools Black Friday Sale - 50% off Main Series

The update is a bit delayed, because it will be more extensive than planned and had a HUGE lot of testing and weighing recordings going on. I've spent weeks poring over the tiniest reports. A bit delayed ? I think it's been more than a bit now. Anyways. Thank You for the feedback, I hope it gets to...

Re: Orchestral Tools Black Friday Sale - 50% off Main Series

I'm still waiting for OT to release an improvement update for their Berlin Strings library, so far this hasn't happened. I won't be purchasing anything from them until they release this update.

Re: SWAM String Sections

imho. The Timbre needs major improvements. I also find the attack of notes a bit odd/synthy sounding. also Lacks presence, and maybe some more detail. The sustains have a stale/fake sounding character, not enough change in timbre, kind of too stagnating timbre wise to sound natural, and more realist...

Re: SWAM String Sections

I'm quite excited to see Audio Modeling finally release their SWAM String Sections.

I will wait for the update, and maybe a discounted pricing, surely, not rushing to buy it at this time.

Given this is the first version, I think they can improve it quite a bit as it matures.

Re: VSL : Synchron Duality Strings (Sordino) Released !

I listened to the audio demos of Duality Strings (Sordino) on the VSL website. They sound pretty good, but none of them impressed my ears, actually the best demo of these new Duality Sordino Strings (imho.) is the one playing in the background while Paul is narrating, the video, which I posted in th...

Re: Abbey Road Orchestra - Violins 1 announced

Q1. Will there be Sordino Strings modules in the future ? If you can't answer this question, it's OK. Q2. Not directly related to AR1-Vlns 1 , but rather to AR2 Iconic Strings Library, can we expect some improvements to that library, especially load times, and other reported issues ? ( I think I'm ...

Hi @Karma , It's nice to see you on this forum, at least they don't delete my posts here like they do at VI-C. I went forward with Pre-Ordering AR1-Vlns 1 Pro ver. and from what I heard so far, they sound awesome ! Thanks for all the effort to develop it. So, next is Celli. and that's an instant buy...

Re: Abbey Road Orchestra - Violins 1 announced

I have just seen Blake's video and it sounds to me like the best Spitfire library in a long time (orchestral). It is only violins 1 but I will be getting it for sure. It may retire CSS and Berlin for me, especially once the other sections are released. I actually think this is rather special. It se...

Pre-Order will begin Sept. 21st.

Maybe some discount incentive to Pre-Order it ?

I also wonder when it will be available for download ?

Kidding aside, where is it ? There is a Lots of buzzz, leaks, ..etc. but no Cubase 13 yet ?

Re: Abbey Road Orchestra - Violins 1 announced

imho. Spitfire's video showing Paul playing the AR1MO Vlns 1 Legatos was not the best way to market this library. The Legatos are a make it or break it detail for serious string libraries. I think it should have been shown during a more detailed walkthrough, with explanations of what it offers, and ...

Re: Abbey Road Orchestra - Violins 1 announced

It's supposed to be the deepest, most detailed sampling they have offered so far.

And Next Gen. Advanced legato scripting, ...etc.

Patiently waiting, and very excited to see Vlns 1 Released soon !

Oh, I also wonder if this release will contain Sordino Samples ?
