Why the problem though? You can simply install only the samples included in Opus1 into your laptop, and voila!

I was under the impression that the instruments were not chromatically sampled, which would, of course, save RAM.

the website seems to have all prices as 306 JPY ????

how much in GBP please?

ouch - the currency has obviously been entered wrong - it should read GBP of course. would be _very_ cheap if it were JPY [;)]
i've checked the price is correct and changed the currency - sorry for the confusion

I am happy about this new addition, thou I should wish it was maybe a bit bigger and then of course more expensive. But what about a creating a tiny demo ? maybe a demo with Opus 2 alone, or together with Opus 1 ?

anyway, good work folks !

WHEN WILL IT SHIP?

We will ship in Europe starting this week. In the rest of the world it will take another 2 weeks.

Hope you can wait that long [:D]

I just want to say that I truly appreciate a company that waits to release information about a new product until it is basically ready to ship (unlike some companies who push back release dates by months!) I'm thankful that there are some good, honest businessmen out there who care enough about their consumers to not drag them along a roller coaster ride of expected shipping dates! THANK YOU!

Also, anyone who has or purchased Opus 2, PLEASE post some demos ASAP. I want to see if this poor college student can justify the $500 (any student discounts?). Thanks in advance.

A quick question,
Are Opus 2 instruments lite versions of ProEd instruments in terms of number of layers, chromatic sampling? Im interested in this issue specially in relation to the strings stuff.
Thanks

The string ensemble instruments (flautando, fast repetitions, runs) are identical with the Pro Edition versions.

[[:|]] comparing the sample numbers with those of the pro edition, it seems that (except for the woodwinds already included in opus 1) in opus 2 every (half)tone is sampled. this is in contrast to the "philosophy" of the first opus package and for me exremely disturbing since it makes no sense to spend twice as much memory on rarely used instruments like e.g. contrabasson ... in particular, this largely prohibits to use these sounds in a template, because when i have to decide to include one articulation from opus 2 or two from opus 1 i will definitively do the latter!
so, are there also reduced "opus1-like" programs for the included instruments where only every second sample is used?
if not, will you make such programs available for download later on?

hello (excuse my bad english)

i want to buy Opus1 bundle but i have some interogation:

every demo show some great attack string but no dark, romantic, expressive melody;
Is it a probleme of the sample or not?

So, should i buy opus 1,2 bundle or opus 1 and sting chamber?

And the same question about preference

In a simple way: is it really possible to have the total orchestre with all feeling from opus 1,2 or is it better to have separate string, wind..

And the last question, is there some technical documentation in french?


Thank you so much for your andswer

For maximum expressiveness with strings, I recommend Opus 1 plus the Horizon Solo Strings. Using these two packages together can yield amazing results.
