The installation was tricky. Cubase SL 3, the plug was not visible, there had to rename the folder where the plug.
Then I had all the crackling sound, despite a high-performance PC. Having hacked the latency (I went up to 100 ms still having the same problems), I finally found the software did not work at 8 ms latency (not seven, not nine, really ... weird).
Otherwise, the manual is well done (but in English).

I just made a second installation on my mac laptop intel 1.8 ghz with 512 MB of RAM. Installation without any problem, a bit long for a copy of the 8 MB file, otherwise, installation and immediate recognition.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

I have a PC Pentium IV 3.4 GHz with 2 GB of ram. It's going to work! That said, the reverb very long do not rotate. But I can open with two instances, therefore, 32 different sounds over a medium reverb with audio tracks and more, and it turns.
I had many crashes full at the beginning, now, who knows why it works without problems.

on the intel mac, all the reverbs covonlution to work without any worries, unlike the PC

OVERALL OPINION

Despite the problems mentioned above, I am Extremely satisfied with this plug. The sounds are really beautiful. The reverbs are great, and the software is very simple to use.
Small flat, the samples are recorded in 44.1 khz, not possible (or retuning) to use the plug to another frequency.
I've had a good month and comparing with my old East West Silver hurts a lot. The Motu can offer real sounds usable for anything other than a demo.
The value for money is unbeatable. The number of sounds is impressive: all the joints for orchestral instruments (thank you for the alto solo was lacking in some), rare period instruments (harpsichord, fortepiano, recorder, etc..), And beautiful pianos.
With experience, of course, I buy.
Once it's configured, it's really a very very good software.

It's been a while since I use this software (since its release), and I am Extremely satisfied. Next purchase: Ethno Brand: software dealing with almost identical instruments in the world.
