Hi all,
I was hoping you could help me choose here.
I'm looking to expand my sample library and everything I've heard from the VSL collection sounds far superior to other collections in the lower price bracket.
When the sale started, I was delighted since I had my eye on Opus 1 but couldn't afford it. I saw that it was listed at £379 at the distributors and was ready to buy, but the price has now shot up to £429! I've found out that they made an error with the original sale price.
So my question is, what's the difference between the Horizon "Solo Strings" and "Woodwind Ensembles" packages when compared to the similar content in Opus 1? I could perhaps justify spending £360 on these two packages combined if I knew that they offered greater value than the strings and woodwinds in Opus 1.
Of course, I realise that means I would be missing out on the other instruments provided in Opus 1 (Horns and Harp above all), but I'd rather have higher quality strings and woodwinds and spend a little less money, with a view to saving up to purchase other instruments in the future.
I'm struggling to justify spending £429 on Opus 1, especially since I was on the verge of buying it at the original £379 price point.
