I am finishing up the Oboe and have the first demo done. I would be happy to get some input on the demo. This demo also uses the new DS Soundware Flute, Alto Flute, and Bassoon.

Thanks!

Hello,

new Woodwinds & Flutes are always welcome!

For the demos I personally would recommend less reverb...so a potential customer can better judge the sound quality. :)

Hello,

This oboe sounds very very good.

For an oboe sound demo, i think it would be better to have the oboe mixed a little louder. And maybe less reveb. Customers may think there are lots of reverb to hide instrument weakness.

It would be also interesting to have the oboe alone and without any reverb.

Something that may interest you : your libraries are (very) expensive so i think one expect a nice web site... sorry to say but yours is awfull...

Are sf2 or gigasampler format planned ?
Any info about the clarinet ? :D

Regards,

Xavier

Hey guys thanks for the input!

I can totally see what you guys mean about the reverb. I'll make a another version with less.

Gigastudio 3 will be supported as soon as I hear something from them. Sf2 might be another good idea as well. Maybe a less expensive lite type version or something like that.


The web site....well...yeah I know :) but there have been so many changes recently that I had to make a major overhaul. I'll work on it though! :)

Thanks!

Donnie

PS...here's another demo with more intruments in it...

Not bad at all. I already own Dan Dean Solo Woods, so I don't need this.. well, and the fact it's not Giga supported either. Nice to know Giga 3 support is coming though. And the web page isn't THAT bad. I've seen much worse. ;)

Thanks for the kind words. The web page I will still have to work on... :)

Ok, I have updated the file with much less reverb.

Thanks for the suggestions! Sometimes at 4am everything sounds less "reverby" :)
