I'm under the impression that most of them need a lot of work to sound good? These are my first vocal libraries with a word builder and I'm hoping they will fit my modest needs. The price is pretty good compared to other word builder libraries, at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reid Rosefelt Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 I downloaded them all and had a quick play through. My first impression is that I'm not impressed. I wish I hadn't rushed into this. I should have stopped and done more research. IMO the vocals don't work at all without a lot of reverb on them.  When you take the reverb off they don't sound so great. Honestly they sound too washy with all that reverb. When I have time I will explore the mics and presets more. Maybe I will like them more later.  But the raw samples don't sound good to my ears so I don't know what I'll be able to do.  When you compare this to the immediate first impression you get from Genesis or Solo Opera or Jaeger or 8dio's The New Sopranos, or the terrific Calypso by Auddict that was just on sale, they don't stand up for me. The wordbuilder is cool, though. Much more developed than most. But first I have to believe in the vocals enough to want to take the time earn to use it.  🤔 3 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tapsa Kuusniemi Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I grabbed these as they have been on my radar for a time and I'm loving the sound and I find the wordbuilder quite straight forward. For me this kind of product makes sense since I use Falcon quite a bit into which this loads nicely. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeGBradford Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I was very tempted by the price for the set but listening to the demos there is still a fair degree of unreality / artefacts that put me off (apart from the fact I'm already overwhelmed Total max Studio and all the free VSTi's I have!) Not convinced by the word builder either and the GUI looks dreadful 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleer Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 The GUI was one of the reasons that got me off the fence and buy it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeGBradford Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 It's even more crusty than Miroslav Philharmonik 🙂 (which I rather like I must admit) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin H Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 So I decided if they still had licenses I would get the bundle and since they weren’t sold out I got it.  So far I really like the sound.  I plan to blend it with other vocal libraries.  Discount is crazy and I have been eyeing these for a while.  I’ll need to keep playing with these for a while but so far not regretting the purchase. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
