IIRC Troels has said that they will release the choir libraries on Soundpaint, but they have had to work on the SP engine first to make it possible.

They're releasing smaller libraries that don't use their original RTS format. It would be ideal to be able to reduce the file sizes of the older libraries though. Edit. Troels just said on their livestream that they're working on converters (to reduce file sizes). He still thinks the bigger RTS is format is much better for instruments like pianos.

Boz Digital New York L 1926 Lite Piano $19.00 $0.00 https://www.bozmasterkeys.com/product/new-york-l-1926/?attribute_version=Lite This is pretty cool if you need a piano library with a tiny footprint (45 MB) that runs on any computer. It sounds surprisingly good too considering there are no proper samples (the pro version has 6 GB of samples).

Intro price was $89 for new customers. $49 was an upgrade.
