Indiginus SolidStateSymphony - best synth pads/orch ever
SonicCouture NovaChord - dusty, noisy, loads of character
FairlyConfusing BleepMan - brilliant programming, can't stop playing with it

My favorite Kontakt library tends to be whichever one was the most recent acquisition. Currently, that's Kirk Hunter Concert Strings 2, but it's still on probation while we continue to get acquainted.
But here are six - OK, seven - that I've had long enough to have them become staples:
Orange Tree Samples EEG: my first-call lead electric guitar library
Orange Tree Samples Rickenbacker: not just for Rush covers
Indiginus Solid State Symphony: fits with anything, often layered over "realistic" orchestral stuff, fun to play live
Indiginus Delta Blues Slide Guitar: limited but gobs o' fun; be sure to try it amped
Indiginus StrumMaker IV / Indiginus Acoustic Guitar Collection: go-to libraries for picked acoustic guitar, even though strumming is their forte
Epic Bottles: jug percussion, suprisingly versatile and works for epic orchestration to prog rock

Thanks a lot for the info, x-mas for me tooSubsonicArtz wrote:I think that it's xmas once again for you mate, cause i just found those links that seem to be working!
I just tried "herbertos" on Google and they were quite easy to find.
There is a collection edition.
Those 4 libraries were free so feel free to download them...

One thing which has a lot of, for me, really excellent sound design type patches is 8Dio Glass Marimba.
In that vein, Soundiron Angklung. A very 'live' slightly chaotic character.
And you know what's been a go-to is Cinetoms, from some years ago, really nice warm rich toms a couple of them particularly.

Hollowsun and SonicCouture Novachord stuff. Apparently, this synth samples very well.
The Hollowsun string libraries.
These are favorites for messing around with and I actually end up using them a lot, so I guess they qualify as favorites. Wouldn't have thought kontakt would end up my favorite pad synth.
