Melodic instruments can be inconsistent but its fun to play
For a large 65,000+ sample library, at the outright price point of 299.99 USD, I expected this to sound more consistent. Almost every instrument is pretty detailed having alternative sample layers of the same "program" to explore so you'll always find something new.
The percussion is detailed enough a realistic performance, especially with the reverb options. The better melodic instruments tend to be the strings (plucked instruments). The worse melodic instruments (especially the wind instruments), however, remind me of old AKAI sample cds but sampled at higher quality. A couple specific examples that stick out (in a bad way) are the erhu and aboriginal flute. Their higher notes suffer (especially the erhu).
Despite this I have a pretty positive impression of this library because I appreciate that a lot of the instruments in this library were made with velocity layers/playability in mind. As a keyboardist, its fun to have that option. For whatever reason I don't come across too many libraries like that anymore; most rely heavily on modwheel and keyswitch with no alternative.
