Re: [EXS] OPUS 1/2

2005-04-06 by Tom Harrer

After listening to the demos of VSL versus other orchestral libraries I 
was convinced that VSL is the most authentic sounding at this time.
I think it has a lot to do with the legato tool.
Also it utilises the EXS rather than a proprietary kompakt player.
Finally, I prefer using reverb to having multiple samples for "distance 
miking".

These factors have persuaded me that it's better to save to get into 
the "VSL path" than even such a low price as the group buy would create 
(although this may not happen nearly as easily as it did for the Gold 
bundle).
