Thank you for this lovely long reply, and shout out to noiseboy for reiterating my short question I had early.msvs wrote: Fri Feb 24, 2023 10:55 ambecause thats basically just covered with our "EDM" packs. Strangely, every XP with a "pop" in the name, (e.g. Nexus) performs under average.I still don't know why you haven't done the biggest genre on earth - mainstream pop (Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Ed Sheerin etc). Or for that matter, how about Dark Pop (Billy Eillish)? That would surely be huge.
definately, we will continue to expand in real instruments. In most XPs (Italo Disco for example or Dystopia) are already many many new multiloop guitar kits, which were quite a lot of work to record. The new Cinematic Loops 2 will also contain new real instruments, such as a choir I recorded etc. Many new male and female vocal hooks will be available in the upcoming Melodic Techno 4 (which are gorgeous btw)I do wonder if targeting instruments alongside the dance stuff would be popular, continuing from guitars and string machines. Someone above said "what about brass
But I am not a fan of "type of sound" xps. A whole XP full of only brasses again and again would bore me as a designer, as well as the customer. If you want to have many brasses as a preset selection, just use our search system, to filter out all brasses, pianos, choirs or effects you have installed.
big multisampled acoustic libraries with round robin etc... are more the speciality of Nexus, instead of Avenger. The CPU demand would just be much higher as in Nexus. And the whole architecture is better to design in Nexus for this task.That also suggests another line of attack, together with your comments at the end. XPs that contained significant new acoustic samples, leaning towards a sampler library rather than a synth, could well be interesting. I'd imagine production costs would be higher though.
Off hand, which XPs have most realistic brass if you could say?
