    I have the First Ed. and was wondering if VSL has any plans of releasing a Dulcimer? As far as I know there is no sampled Dulcimer... is there?

    Thanks

    Wouldn't you be able to find that in some Celtic collection?
    Here is one link I found that might be helpful.

    Hope that helps.

    Most of the Celtic libraries Ive heard (and Ive gone through three of them) are virtually useless.
    A four or five layered hammered dulcimer would be a beautiful thing.

    Hmmm . . . which ones have you tried? Can anybody recommend any good ones? What about the one over at East West?

    I actually just heard that "Rare Instruments 2" will havea hammered dulcimer called a 'Santoor'. The new instument list looks amazing, and looks like it will be THE top ethnic library... until ofcourse VSL releases an ethnic library[:)]

    Thanks for the link Chris!
