This product is worth every penny if not more! it's awesome, I produce hip hop beats and if you have a creative mind this thing will blow you away!
Sound
I have to admit, I'm in love!! digging through sounds to find the right one is a very small price to pay for such a kick @ss plug in!! first off, the orchestra sound are unbelivable, the nuances areincredible in their detail. you can hear the vibrato and bow strokes!! love it!! the electronic sounds are cool, though you have to sift thru them as alot of them are quite basic and similar sounding, however you can stack 16 instruments, so if you can find a sound you want for that particular beat, you can make it!!!
Features
It included exactly what you need, 8 gb of instruments, 5000+ patches is all the features I need!
Ease of Use
plug it in a start playing, as simple as that. obviously if your buying it, you probably have plug in experience already, and thats all you need.
Quality
This thing is the best money I have spent since I started building my studio. it's hard to beat 256 note of poly. in a synth plug-in!
Value
It isn't even expensive considering the fantom, (which I have is over a thousand bucks) and has 4 times as many sounds! I still love my fantom though, it they compliment each other well
Manufacturer Support
haven't been… read more able to use yet.
The Wow Factor
This tool is one of the most inspirational I have used in a LONG time! I've had to use it on FL studio while I wait for the Intel Mac patch to be released and I have made some of the best beats I've ever made just in the few days I've had it!!
