Needthatkit.com The Arsenal KONTAKT

Nice thank you man

Thanks for sharing this. For objectivity sake, I listened to the 9 minutes video.

This library might have been OK ten years ago but by today's standard it's certainly not worth more than the 50 bucks they ask for.

This is sounding like some Studiolinkedvst stuff which for me is certainly not a plus.

Anyway, thanks for sharing.

That video - it's bad enough that this is like a basic rompler, but to have some yee-haw cowboy reviewing it with that annoying accent (y'all) just confirms how lame this is.

... yawn... boring library

- Synths
- Strings

If you want to test some of the "best" Patches, DL these, I reduced the samples to thin the size, of course the original above has better quality:

Yes, I Downloaded it, opened will be 4.82 GB. I did some redutions in the best Samples, so you can test them, the quality remained almost the same. Guitars & Bass I didn't, forget that. The links in the end.

If the expensive Keyboards from the 80's and 90's had these patches, people would pay many bills for that, but not for a keyboard for today, we have better VST and small VST plugins of just 4 MB doing better.

By the way, Keyboard companies are almost shutting down and migrating to the sample market, but, they never did samples, other clever men did for them, is the case of the poor Roland that had Eric Persing doing the hard work, and these guys were working parallel all these long years.
Who would believe that super protectionist companies that had the own government support would break, in the case of German Wersi, which left Yamaha with theirs bad sampled Electones never enter in England, Germany, Austria and other countries.
On the other hand, major American companies have the same government guarantee super taxing the Japanese companies, this way, american consumers go to their own, lawrey, etc. This is the reason for German Wersi never got to enter in USA.
Products not enter if you don't have the backing of the government, the reason is to protect the american 'Lowrey Organ Company'.

Well, I tested these samples, pros and cons:

Inside there is a patch called 'Brass - Stomp em' with a Timpani in all the keyboard extension, what is this for?
Lousy guitars as those on 80's keyboards. Organs useless in any epoch.

But, Brass - String Brass is a nice 39.5 MB patch. LOL, A keyboard some years ago, in the 90's had 39.5 MB in the entire CPU.
It would have been nice having all these soundsyears ago, keyboards would be better, except KORG, but, LOL, these samples are not the best for today.
