Downside of going Player is that their libraries would probably go up a little in price, though they might offset that with number of sales. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Their libraries are already EXPENSIVE, so there should be no reason to "raise prices"... Look at companies like "Cymatic" that produce Player libraries for under a $100....THAT tells you EVERYTHING that you need to know. It's about GREED...not about the Libraries, or the music! They just don't want to pay the extra fee to get "Player" designation....meaning THEY'RE GREEDY & CHEAP... Edited December 14, 2021 by cclarry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I wrote my response, I was thinking more about the Ethera series which is more modestly priced, especially during the sales periods. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I LOVE Keepforest Libraries...they are GREAT sounding, and their interfaces are even entertaining! What I have a problem with, and I've told them these things BOTH directly, and on Facebook, is several-fold.. 1. Not Player Compatible 2. Expensive ( I don't mind being expensive -WHEN the support is there to justify it!) 3. They don't care...about the customer, or about anything else...just the money... 4. They offer ZERO Upgrade paths... 5. If you buy from a Third Party, you CANNOT use the the Keepforest downloader to install, or keep track of, the library! You can ONLY use it for purchases made DIRECTLY from Keepforest, and they seem to be COMPLETELY content with that fact, as they could use "redemption codes" at Resellers that have to be redeemed at Keepforest to get your library! Instead, they so much as told me that it "wasn't their problem"! Edited December 13, 2021 by cclarry 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PavlovsCat 1,517 Posted December 13, 2021 I was thinking about Ethra Soul. Does anyone who owns these give some insights on how useful they are for background vocal ooh and ahh parts and which ones are best suited for that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not for nothin', but in case anyone was hoping to squeeze this in around twenty bucks with the code, the linked page also sez, in stern red letters: "PLEASE NOTE: This product is already heavily discounted. You cannot use the Ethera Loyalty code above when purchasing this product. The new newsletter subscriber $15 discount code will also not work when purchasing this product. To use this code the minimum spend must be $40." Personally, I'm waiting for ZG to decide that Sahara Voices released in April isn't "new" any more, so I can use the newsletter code next time it's on sale as an entree into the Etheraverse. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
