PavlovsCat 3,014 Posted December 5, 2022 They have been super generous in past years, giving out a limited, but decent amount, of free licenses for their normally paid sample libraries. But they go quickly, and I was only able to grab one of their freebies last year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kitekrazy 2,365 Posted December 5, 2022 I got plenty of their stuff and even paid for it. It has nothing to do with their quality but I don't really use their stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It has nothing to do with their quality but I don't really use their stuff. Took me a while, but I am beginning to find ways to integrate their stuff into my projects. It's almost always in full-on orchetral arrangements when I need instrument lines that are particularily nimble, or for passages that are fundamentally unsuited to being performed realistically by programmed multisamples. Sonokinetic's phrase libraries are really good at filling in those gaps, and I find them pretty easy to blend with other libraries. When they work, they really work, in that role. Worth having, at least for me. The deal today is for their Orchestral Strings multisample library, which I also have. It's pretty good, with lots of articulations and a nice sound, although I find that it's not really for quick or easy arrangements; in my view, it's a finishing library better suited for arrangements that are already worked out in a fair amount of detail. Also, I totally dislike their instrument interfaces, and the Orchestral Strings one is no different. Very stylish. But also annoying, and they require a bit more work to operate than I want to spend when I'm working on music. However, if you can deal with that then $99 is a really good deal for a full-featured and good-sounding set of orchestral strings.
