@Fleer what was that deal you got from these guys recently where you said it was a rare deal? Something like 6 for $250? That's what I'd be interested in, whatever it was. Really I just need the broken wurli, but.

This was it:

I've got Moonkits and the library does sound really good. There is a ton of variety to be had in the various kits and presets. This library oozes uniqueness and character. There aren't nearly as many high hat and cymbal articulations as say a Superior Drummer kit, but many of the Moon kits come with a whopping 45 different brush articulations. Some of the more oddball Moon kits come with much fewer articulations. The one serious drawback to Moonkits is that there is no internal midi mapping  tool. I can see this being a deal breaker for many.  If you own a copy of full Kontakt,  Soniccouture does share a link to a half-baked and somewhat painful midi mapping work around located here:

Good to know - it's the brush swirls I really want!

When that "not to be missed" deal was on, I listened to all the demos I could find trying to figure out why people are so excited about these libraries. I still don't understand what's so special about them to justify the high price. I guess you need a more refined taste than what I have to appreciate them, or have some very specific needs.

No MIDI mapping was a shock to me and I had to check if Sun Drums supported it. Luckily, it does.
