Hi Colin,

Thanks for the interest. The whole idea is that instead of making libraries 
with limited functionality (that have to work with every blasted sampler on 
the planet), we will now make powerful Instruments with a core set of samples 
that are used to create new sounds/grooves very easily. When we have a new 
product to introduce, it will be much more interesting, because the engine 
and the product's features are tailored to the sounds and the concept of the 
instrument, instead of the other way around. It's pretty exciting stuff.

This page explains the concept in greater detail:

Of course you can still use any of our libraries with the EXS, but these new 
instruments contain ALL new sounds developed specifically for the unique 
features of the instruments.

Best,
