Sorry eDrummist, I generally tend to stay out of this kind of discussions, with all the respect that I have for you, when I read things like that I can't resist, so what you wrote is absolutely a big bulls...!eDrummist wrote:The simpler libraries, like Ignius and Pettinhouse (which I own a bunch of and are easy to use, but much less sophisticated then Evolution, Electri6ity, Prominy LPC, etc.) are pretty straight forward. But if you're looking for an ultra-realistic performance where guitar is prominent in the mix and especially, if it is a professional production, they're not going to cut it.
1 - For sure is not a sophisticated script that allows the guitar to be prominent in a mix. PERIOD!
2 - "if it is a professional production"... My product are used in professional productions. One for all, in the last "Spiderman" movie made by people from Abbey Road was used one of my product, as well as TV shows and documentaries around the world.
If your intention is to push more a company than another one do it but with respect for others because as you said we are small companies and we all work very hard for buying the bread to stay alive in this world.
Let's stop to compete, to make the war who makes the best libraries...come on! We all produce great libraries, we work very hard for making them, it's a matter of tastes and not because mine are easy to use, the other one has the best script or the best GUI.
I tend to be friend of my "competitors", Ilya Efimov is my friend and I think he creates incredible libraries. Greg produces great libraries too. I had the pleasure to meet Chris Hein on Musikmesse, great producer and a very kind person, so Thomas Scarbee and so do other sample producers which I hope one day to meet in person.
Around us there are a bunch of great people, very skilled scripters, Evildragon is one of them which I know personally, a VERY friendly person who helps us to develop our libraries.
Folks! Let's collaborate together to create the best tools for musicians instead of making war on poor people!
Thank you,
