I wonder what the price will be for Pro Edition users....plus that Christmas "discount" [[;)]]

My Euphoniums coming - I can feel it!
How about a "Buy now pay in 2008" sort of a deal. And maybe finance at say 4% APR.
You know it makes sense. [:D]

Whatever it is has the number "800 000" attached to it - assuming that:
A) The coming release is the Symphonic Cube
B) One follows the same proportions of the current Complete Symphonic Edition
C) The 800 000 relates to included sample count
That could potentially mean that the SC will have ~495 gigs of content.
Wow.

Since we're all put in the position of speculating, why not have fun?
Here goes ...
I think it's going to be the Choir with a very interesting new Performance Tool and the "Vocal Tool" that allows you to enter text and, voila, the proper phonemes and transitional sounds will be automatically stitched together ... resulting in the choir being able to actually speak! No more only "ooohs" and "blaaahs" from sample choirs.
Or, maybe it's the newly redesigned Performanc Tool (called "Dynamic Tool") + Symphonic Cube. The new tool automatically detects crescendo and diminuendo in a sequence (and knows its length) inserting just the right dynamic sample to match. Magically, it also works in real time.

VSL's Marketing dept WILL BE getting a raise on this idea (even though it is kind of cheesy and out of character for VSL). [:'(]

Of course we know, it's undoubtedly the Symphonic Cube. Nothing less would be hyped up so much. With all the square and cube references, the 800,000 (number of samples), and the "It's not a Dream" slogan, which slams the belief by many that it was never going to happen; it has to be none other than SC.
The Next Generation is exactly that - the next generation in orchestral sample libraries. Bigger, better and more realistic ('natural').
It's just a shame I won't be able to afford it - just yet...

The Complete Orchestral Package Pro Edition has 385586 samples and the Opus 1 has 40107 samples which makes a ratio of 9.61. That would make Opus 3 about 83000 samples. That would be cool as I might be able to afford it. [*-)]@Chinablu said:
Opus 1 contains approximately one third of Cubes' samples.
Rebus sic stantibus, Opus 3 should contain 800.000/3 = 266.000 samples?

My theory is this:
1. The 'Next Generation' refers to performance tool integration into iMIDI as well as 24 bit samples.
2. The '800,000' refers to the amount of samples in the Symphonic Cube.
3. And the 'Natural' refers to the natural impulse response acheived with the MIR project...

Anyway, November 26 is just around the corner, so we will all find out soon.
