but...but...but..
I have a guitar.... I don't play it very well...I don't play anything 
very well....  I'm a composer...not a performer.  I don't write pop 
music...I write orchestral music.  I love oboes with their 
expressiveness and their nuance.  Did you know that quite apart from 
the variations from instrument to instrument, the method used in 
shaping the reed of an oboe can have an amazing effect on the 
tone...Players often have a box of reeds they use to create different 
tones and effects.  But I have an oboe library.  I need a guitar 
library.

I'm down to 2....Yellow tools pure guitars...$134  and Hans Zimmer 
guitars vol.2..$279.  Does anyone know if the extra $145 dollars is 
money well spent?  The Zimmer Demo sounds great and it got a great 
review from SOS...but that was 4 years ago...it's also in Akai format 
and that can be a pain...everything is all split up cause of ram 
issues.  Yellow tools is a new library...even comes in EXS format...Is 
anyone using these libraries?

Thanks
Julie
