That!

I gave up supporting EXS24 because A) it's not as flexible as Kontakt, C) half of my stuff couldn't be ported to EXS24 as it relies on the scripting and C) very few people were buying them. Those who did buy have subsequently come back to me to ask for the Kontakt version of what they bought as they've now dumped EXS24 in favour of Kontakt.

I think some still use it but for mundane purposes (bunging a quick piano down, whatever) and for Logic's own supplied instruments (obviously) but my understanding/experience is that most Logic users pretty much use Kontakt now.

Shame to see Mach 5 coming so low in the poll - the new version looks as though it could give Kontakt a damned good slap on the bottom with better scripting and functionality.

Cheers,

Thanks! It's good to get the opinion of an expert, and it helps solidify my opinion that the two formats that matter are Kontakt and SFZ. :-)

Wait . . . so you're saying you *like* the SFZ format? I wasn't clear on that before.

:D

Interesting poll results. Kontakt is a must have for sample developers nowadays!
