      If you took advantage of Spitfire's spring sale, you could have gotten every Spitfire library shown there, plus Masse and Harp, for $1522. Symphonic Strings + Symphonic Brass + Symphonic Woodwinds + Masse + Harp was just $898. Chamber Strings could had be bought for $355 after buying the SSS+SSB+SSW+Masse+Harp bundle, and Albion V was $269.

      🦉 Create a user account on Spitfire's website & add all the sample libraries you want in your wishlist. One day you'll get a special offer. I only have the original Albion which has been upgraded to Albion One. They do have some free samples in the Lab section.

    @marcussVRLinux 3 года назад +2

    I think one more important note to make is that you can use all non-licensed instruments in Kontakt Player (free version) - BUT! They will only play for 15 minutes. After that you have to either restart the entire DAW or Kontakt to use it again. Duplicating tracks which sometimes opens a new instance of Kontakt does not circumvent the limitation. The full version removes this limitation so that you can use the libraries as shown and the "external" ones, like the massive list of BigCat Instruments.
