Recommend some other small Kontakt libraries with Character

[ghettosynth]

Sorry for butting in here, but I'm interested in libraries like this. Just a quick question from a Kontakt noob: can any of these libraries be used in the free version of Kontakt (Kontakt Player)?

For the most part, no. You can use them for fifteen minutes while player is in "demo" mode. Wait for Komplete to go on sale and buy it. Kontakt and Reaktor are pretty much essential tools if you want to engage the weirdness these days. This is even more true since Reaktor 6 came out.

ZapZorn has some interesting stuff. Their prices are higher than some of the other vendors mentioned here, but they have good, flexible instruments.

Thanks man, I'm not judging too much on price at this point. Sure, it's more fun when they're dirt cheap, but I want to see the breadth of expression that people have achieved through my, admittedly biased, lens of "character."

That said, there is some correlation between the libraries that I find interesting and those that are fairly inexpensive.

On a side note, samplism, woot!

+1 for Hollow Sun. If you want character.

Yes, but I don't know of them, so if many people contribute, we get a nice summary thread.

Big fan of the Hollow Sun stuff as well as many of the others mentioned (and some new ones to check out there too, thanks all).

Also, these guys do some great stuff, and there's even a (slightly ridiculous!) new freebie currently available..
