First of all, thank you very much for your warm feedback
Let me take this opportunity to talk a little bit about me and what is coming...

I'm more than happy to read this as it was my very first goal. Indeed, before anything else, I'm a musician with a classical and "world music" background and I'm used to play acoustic instruments. Marimba being my preferred one. I'm also a big fan of analog synths and their instability. I'm building a modular synth, at the moment. (50% DIY !) On the other hand, I really like the sound of the last soft synths. The problem is that when you play them (not always true, luckily), they don't give you all the little "surprises" of a real musical instrument. They have to be designed/programmed for that purpose. All the presets in this bank have been extensively played, and
should not be boring to play.

I assume we will have more to come

For this soundset, I've designed maybe 500 or 600 presets but when you deal with such a quantity, a lot of them are "cousins", "sisters", "brothers", relative of any sort or just the opposite, nothing to do one with another. I decided to release only a small part of them and let time take care of the others. This bank is a sort of swiss-army tool. You can easily make a whole album with it. Maybe the following will be more focused : hi hat, snares, percussion, drums or only strings/pads, or fx/noises/soundscapes, etc.
To breath some fresh air and let the dust settle, I've chosen Valhalla UberMod for my next project. It's almost finished and so far, I'm pretty happy with the results. If all goes well, it should be released in the coming weeks.
After that, in the coming months, Diva, Prophet08, or Maschine ?

However months later, the factory bank afaik is still the same.
You wouldn't perchance know if this was the bank he was speaking about? I wouldn't be surprised.
