Handy to know. Some of these libraries definitely aren't small!

That is an amazing deal.  If you are an EW fan, I'd jump on that.

Agreed. Some of the recent prices from them, including their reverb have been insane!

It's at absurdity levels. Jamming 1,040 microphone positions - with full 27:2 surround atmos support  (extra sub in the *****?) ) - into a flute library is just a giving the middle finger to customers at this point lol. Their orchestra is bad enough - I ain't occupying 1TB for an orchestra that sounds like the underscore for Law & Order SVU.

At least Orchestral Tools justifies their drive footprint and gives option to self-select mic positions.

Hollywood orchestra (Opus) has soft/classic/epic moods you can select, but you can select also mics from 4-5 options and adjust them freely.

For those that have UVI World Suite, how does Ancient Kingdom compare to that VI?

Also consider the ancient bundle at $139 at most retailers (less with forum code at JRRshop) if you are in the market for these type of libraries. Includes  Ancient Kingdom + Silk, Gypsy & RA.

Both are great, but UVI’s has a much broader scope, while EW’s is focused on wind instruments, sampled in detail.
