Well, that's your opinion and your entitled to it. Obviously, there are people who don't agree with you or I wouldn't be in this business at all. I mean I'm not stupid enough to continue to do something if it's not even remotely successful. But I have libraries that do very well. In fact, better than I could have ever imagined. Softube Modular being at the top of the list of surprises. And then there is Serum, which for the longest time outsold every other library by at least 5 to 1.fluffy_little_something wrote:I don't want to hurt your feelings, but your presets just don't seem professional enough. I would not put them on my site if I were U-he. People here don't talk about them because they are not really worth talking about.

They are hardly ever discussed here. Trying to find threads on those synths is like trying to find a needle in a haystack.
So there is no question that popularity does come into play, which again, is why my Hive sales are so surprising. I figured if it's a U-he synth, it'll sell.
Obviously, in that regard, I was wrong.
Look at what renowned sound designers such as Hollo do, it is just another league, sorry to say that. Maybe it would make more sense for you to write less on KVR - most of which is in vain anyway as you will sooner or later discover - and spend the extra time on increasing the quality of your patches instead. If you want to sell something, it needs to be of a certain quality. It is not like throwing some free patches into the crowd because you don't have anything else to do.
So not everybody shares your opinion.
