But what's important to you others may care less about. Comparitvely speaking I think VSL's product pages are comprable to their competitors. Personally, I go straight to the demos and if I like what I hear I'll dig deeper.
@William: Sorry, I didn't want to spoil this thread. Maybe this should be discussed elsewhere.

I know it's a tough job, I'm a media designer, I know what I'm talking about. 😊
I only gave some examples, my last point is the most important one for me. I'm not talking about technical things, e.g. which microphones were used, or who played the instrument which was recorded.
The competition doesn't show everything on the product page, either. But what should they write? A “simple” legato patch is a legato patch. Period. But VSL should at least mention the very basic things, which, in my opinion, are really the USPs of their libraries. They don't have a “simple” legato patch, they have a performance trill. You can play legato, you can play fast legato, you can play trills, you can play runs, you can play repetitions all in one patch. Wow! The competition doesn't have such a thing.
Of course, everybody has different needs. I agree, too. I took the time to go through all (!) threads in the forum, because I wanted to find out new things. What I can't understand is that there have always been the same questions FOR YEARS, e.g. what is a performance trill. So why not make these things more accessible?
Sorry, but I'm repeating myself: Man, these are the USPs of their libraries!!! I guess that many people out there simply don't even know about these things.
