They are releasing a ton of Soundpaint products for a while, so I guess that could also be an explanation … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They announced months ago that they were stopping VIP and in 8DIO style they had a sale. Typically, there was a glitch which allowed some people to use a 60% off code when they were already over 50% off. So the Extremes Ensemble Bundle was $99 for a short while. As well as the Guitar Ensemble, the Bundle included 3 or more other ensembles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did consider the Ensembles bundle but wasn’t convinced I would get much use from it. It uses spot mics on each instrument, so you get a lot of flexibility to go along with the room mics.

The 'downtime' was probably to focus on building and releasing SoundPaint which I've read can blend sounds in a way that Kontakt can't (as I understand, neither is 'better'; more a case of use the right tool for the right job). Another reason SoundPaint libs are probably coming out faster is that 8dio already have samples from the Kontakt versions - many of the SP libs are ports of the Kontakt versions. There are also some new string Kontakt libs that have been released recently. With the number of samples that they advertise, I'd imagine it takes a while to get those processed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
