    Wow.

    Really beyond belief. I do think you can hear a difference in audio quality.

    Just amazing power. It could take forever just to figure out how you would like to set up a Matrix. The power is there.

    I was all set to construct a matrix that allowed the Legato Violins to switch, via mod wheel, to the sustained violins. But apparently the legato violins already hold out forever...no more crossfading between tracks. Now I can use the mod wheel to go from a perf Violins section playing legato, to something else, like a descrescendo. The mind boggles. And that's just the obvious simple stuff.

    I can't wait to see what I'm doing with this thing in a few months.

    Amazing.

    I just got part of the library today. I think the quality is better too. Not sure if its the 24-bit or perhaps simply better programing. The relases are all really nice for one. I also like the fast legato.

    Is the fast legato a new recording or an edit of the regular legato? (in the cellos).

    is there a way to seperate the legato velocity layers? so you just load the dynamic you need?

    Not sure all the new material is hugely useful - the legato trems are nice but I have no use for legato harmonics or stacato harmonics (for example). I guess I am just to classical.

    24 bit should definately sparkle more

    The fast legatos are new samples I'm pretty sure.

    Legato/stacato harmonics are prevalent in Stravinsky and Milhaud and... I'll be using them for sure.

    I agree.

    Sound quality really and audibly improved, and the AU/VST plugin offers a tremendous flexibility, nothing comparable with the "old" Performance Tool.

    To when an Opus 3?
