Red Box versus Blue Box? (SFX)

[hao nao]

I'm thinking of getting a general SFX collection and was considering either Red Box or Blue Box from Best Service.

Is one better than the other? Are they the same samples with a different organization?

Thanks for any comments or alternative suggestions for around the same price (US$300) ...

that's good to hear

I ended up finding and ordering the DVD Studio Box which contains both Red and Blue, plus Black Box (science-fictional sounds) ... luckily there was a 30% discount, which brought it pretty close to what I meant to spend

thanks for the other link as well

here's the product description from the maker's website

you would need some kind of sampler software that can play GIGA format

Havran.. where did you get the Studio Box for 30% off?


i've been looking at that one too.. but it's not cheap

Fitch, I ordered it through www.midi-classics.com

or try www.soundsonline.com (both in the USA)

it's the 30% East-West Hallowe'en discount, which I believe ends TODAY (maybe there's a distributor over there offering the same discount?)

even if the site says "discount is available on in-stock items only", add it to the cart anyway and see whether you can still get the good price on a backorder [soundsonline promo code is: SPOOKY]
