If you're building the list just for yourself, then I guess any criteria will do. But for the others, it's just...very confusing

Agreed: Kontakt instruments are way more than sound libraries. I'm sorry if you don't see why the difference is so important...but it is. Anyway, good luck with this

I am neither bothered nor confused by the differing formats. If your host can't play certain of the formats, you are free to start filtering my list and dividing it into separate sublists posted in other threads.

Some more you might include (which I miss especially in regards
to NI Kontakt Libraries):

ZapZorn:

http://zapzorn.com/

Forgotten Keys:

Cheers

Excellent thread.This will have the "Look on my works ye mighty and despair" type longevity (I love that title). I predict this thread could end up becoming the yellow pages for sample libraries. I'm checking out companies posted here that I never even head who maybe aren't the most known but offer some great stuff.

Glad you like it.

I will assume it's good to include:
http://www.lucidsamples.com
Check it out, get the free packs no problem and you will definitely see their potential.

If you want to insert www.hephaestussounds.com into the list, you can try some free sound and verify the sound quality.
