“Excellent bang for the buck. Ideal for composers on a budget and for people just getting started with midi programming. Also ideal for collaborative work where numerous composers need the same libraries since it doesn't require a large investment or expensive rigs. In general it struggles at a professional level due to lack of mic position options, limited dynamic range of orchestral instruments, especially low dynamics, and not the most realistic legato engine compared to certain competitors.”
“Great sounds and playability, but the lack of mic positions this late into the game is frustrating. I also want adsr controls on more patches, as playing tenuto on some of these cause the whole note to ring out during a phrase..”
“I like the accessibility being able to run the sample libraries. The access to Cineperc is amazing and I love using all the hybrid/synth stuff. Lastly, the pianos are in my template as the sound is high-quality
However, the noticeable differences between the Musio and Kontakt versions is what keeping me from diving deeper into other libraries. The legatos on Cinebrass don’t feel right to play and the lack of mic positions hinder my ability to make melody lines with the library.”
