Version reviewed: 1.0? on Mac
Good Sounds in a terrible engine.
If this library was a Kontakt-App with NKS, it might be acceptable for the price, but unfortunately Bestservice does not focus enough for best engines. Even on a classic iMac 2017 configuration (bigSur/Intel) the Engine does not provide an acceptable and readable surface scale, sliders and knobs do not run liquid, the usability is unusual and strange, my Komplete S61-Keyboard, same age as the library is not shown in standalone-mode, only as plugin.
The library is only an extract of "Ancient Era-Persia", the price is, comparing to the content & performance, far too expensive. The solo instruments are partly good, flutes are not convincing, but Duduk is a good Adaption.
Nevertheless, the Ambiences are really convincing and match the Focus of the Library.
In times where Crossgrades of NI Komplete Ultimate 13 are sold for 550€, the full price of Desert Winds is a mystery.
The library urgently needs an update after 9 years and f.e. a Version for a professionel Surface like Kontakt, Halion etc. the quality of the material wood justify this.
