When I played your file I was expecting to hear some of the "big guns" in orch percussion...is this library focused more on the smaller percussion?

I'm not sure I understand your question. Do you mean "louder" and more "bombastic" by "big guns"? A demo (or composition) is different from one to the next. Sometimes I write something more ethereal and "softer" and sometimes I write faster and louder. It all depends on the composition

timpani's, bass drums...that kind of thing...typical orch percussion demos illistrate the grandiose nature of their product to make their point...

not that your demo is a bad...just used to hearing the boom, bang, crash thing...you know...

ah, stupid me.... yeah I totally agree with you. I just wanted this demo to show some of the more exotic instruments that a lot of libraries don't have. The next one I make will be more "traditional".

Thanks!

Donnie congratulations for your instruments, they sound beautifully...

Impressive clarinet demo... Cannot believe it's not a real one...

http://www.dssoundware.com/demos/WeberClarinet.mp3
One of the most impressive demo i've ever heard...

Has you business really began ? I mean if yes, you should spend some time on you web site...
Java script error on the first page : "'numofitems' is undefined..."
All the instruments link to a same page with a totally different look... No "back to home" button.
Not enough information about the instruments... Size, number of velocity layers for each articulation, delivered on CD? DVD ? etc....
I think when someone is interesting in a 99$ instrument, he expects more information.
"Add to chart" does not add anything... It links to the purchase page. So the label "Add to chart" is wrong.
Cannot find the clarinets alone in the instrument list on the purchase page.
Eb Clarinet (the one of the demo ?) alone available ?

Your instruments sound great, i just hop what i said may help...

Regards and congratulations again,

Xavier

Xavier,

Yes, you are totally correct about my web page. I have someone who will be working on it in the very near future. I have been so busy working with the programming of the sounds that the web site has slipped away from me.

Thanks for the comments about the sounds it is much appreciated!
