Any library from SampleLogic at $99 is a bargain. Sadly they don't do many sales.

At first glance, your youtube title sounds like you might be reviewing the Kontakt Player.

For $99 it's mildly interesting if you do not own additional Sample Logic libraries.
What's the one you use the most?
I'd say it's Bohemian. Very musical stuff in there - and playable too, not just one finger arps or evolving pads
Interesting, thanks! That's another SL library I've got, and I never use it:)

Thanks Musical Gym, just rectify it with "Library" ;)

Great review, MillerSam :tu:

althought the video and the concept are really nice, and surely there will be some use for this library, i skipped because i have the fear that it has way soooo much controls, knobs and tweak that i feel i will lose more time fiddling with the UI than making actual music...

I would never have bought them if it wasn't for the sale though. I didn't really need them but I couldn't resist that bundle offer back then.
Thing is, pretty much all the Sample Logic presets sounds like complete compositions. No wonder why they have a category called "one note glory" :lol: - it's only when you start to alter the presets, pull them apart and disable the arpeggiator. That's when they shine and the recording and programming quality reveals itself. I still need to play around with cinematic keys and cinematic guitars a bit more though. I'm sure they're useful too :-)
