Note: for the Silver version.
Easy installation with authentication software, DVD, 2.4 GB of samples ...
Manuel common to all three editions (Silver, Gold, Platinum) a little trompe l'oeil, but supplmentaire sheet for Silver. Rather clear, in English (but hey, no big deal.
Configuration play: works in standalone and VSTi RTAS and it seems to me.
Down on the Native Instruments Kompakt player.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
Configuration muscle welcome for not making the bouncing.
I have a PIV 3.2 w / 1GB RAM and a good rev hard drive and runs without a problem, even
with loads of tracks and three instances of Kompakt at max load (24 instrumentals).
So good performance by rhausses rgulires updates and expansion of Kompakt DFD (streaming from disk.
Stability copy Cubase SX2.2
OVERALL OPINION
I've had two months, I use it regularly.
The only complaint was the lack of joints, which is logical given the price.
Most important, let the sounds:
- The strings are good, especially the bass. The violins are a bit of legato.
- The woods are average / good. There are not many and few joints.
- Brass instruments are fantastic.
- The drums are super good and many plutt.
- The pianos are beautiful (thank you Olivier)
- The vocals are few, but they just voted, so beautiful
- The organs seem good. I did not utiliss.
Other points:
- The handling is exemplary.
- The sound is incredible: trs trs Hollywood so effective.
- The sound is dry, you add the reverb and the mix of your choice
- Programming is exemplary use of the mod wheel, expression (CC # 11), volume: vritable a bonus from many other collections.
- The price is affordable and update carrment COST trs exactly the diffrence between the lines.
- Some updates rgulires free sound banks are couraging by EW.
So congratulations EastWest / Quantum Leap and strongly that I can offer me the Gold!
NOTE: AMENDMENT after installing the update for FREE.
First, there must be days Kompakt update to install the samples. It is not difficult to make trs.
This update is necessary because it adds new sounds - including versions of "preview" of Gold, but also the two keyswitching type:
- Legato KS: three variations that change the tone and especially the attack sounds. Ultra welcome to the more legato practitioner.
- Master KS: all sounds after a keyswitch - legato, staccato, etc ...
There are supporters and the keyswitch dtracteurs who see it as an unnecessary complication. I am 100% supporter, have two or three attacks diffrent for each instrument is a trsor.
Reminder: the keyswitch EW is made in support of sustain pedals can use the keys C0, D0 and D # 0 on your keyboard to choose a variation. Free the pedals, you will find the sound of departure.
My new rating: 11. Ah, I can not. So still 10 more than ever!
