All these people leaving negative comments are completely missing the point. It really agravates me when people imply that everyone who does music production should hire session musicians to play brass and saxophone parts but for many of us that's not happening because we can't afford to hire session musicians so we have no other choice but to make the best of what's possible with midi. These brass sounds are still better compared to what you get in the Kontakt Factory Library.

Why are you in the upper octaves my friend ? These are supposed to be bass samples.

It sounds synthy. Too much for the retail price.

Beautiful instrument, really loved the demo you did!!

The review was not convincing enough for me to buy this product. It's a bit boring, lack of excitement and doesn't really show the true potential of this vst.

Can we import our own samples?

Phantasm is fantastic, and you can get it for free if you purchase any Ergo Kukke library at Loot Audio - I got Synchro Hits and Phantasm together, what a deal! I also got the UJAM new synth bundle. Absolutely fantastic. Thanks for the weekly Deal Compressor show! I always enjoy it and look forward to it every Friday :)

Rigid Audio's Ultron is $3 on their site, $5 on pluginboutique

Are the new samples or did they re-use sounds from Novo, Forzo and Vento?

No dollar deals section in the description anymore (for a few weeks). As a hobbyist, these prices are 😱😂 Bring it back!

How would you compare it with cinematic studio brass?

Thanks for another episode, Don! The designed image made me think today's Deal Compressor Show was sponsored by Firefox. "Browse your sample deals, safe and secure!"

Nice

Great show and so many new releases this week! Would love a review of Elskavon Toolkit, Chroma - Upright Piano, Ministry of Bass, and MIR...to name a few :)

I appreciate all the work you put into this week after week. Very informative site.

The brass sounds too slick / well-behaved. Where's the sense of "uncontrolled" brutal power that brass also can give.

Excellent samples

Non-controllable vibrato is an anathema. No matter how good it sounds in the demo, the performance is strictly limited to a super rigit sterile/templated expression that severely limits the phrasing options. Vibrato here seems to be treated just as an "added decoration", whereas vibrato with variable width and variable speed is existentially crucial for the violin - the king of expression - and is simply not present. Showing near contempt to this by the developers makes me want to cry. Are you serious? Swells without a gradual increase in vibrato intensity? Message to developers: Come back to me when you have fixed this.

Looks like a total unusable crap to me.

Thank you for doing this review!

Sat in my studio with this, middle of the night casting spells & conjuring demons!

love it

Damn this is sooooo good. I wonder if they will extend this style to other sections of orchestra as well? That’d be interesting - John Williams and Jerry Goldsmith sounding orchestra in our DAW…

Thanks so much. All the demos do sound amazing especially as it’s intended to be an extension to a full brass library. What are your thoughts on the consistency of the note starts? I prefer to quantize and use predelay. Did you find yourself needing to adjust from patch to patch?

Perfect timing - my OT libraries were calling for this ! Sold (and I love it).

Fine demonstration! This one I'll need to save up for.

Thank You, again very helpful video! 👍

Lots of good deals and interesting instruments this week

Dollar DELAS??????

cual es el codigo?

sounds good, but it's too pricy, the most expensive of all Hit, Riser, Whoosh VST's.

What’s wrong with Spitfire Audio now?…

Grabbed the Korg Berlin prototype. Seems like a cool instrument

I am collecting a lot of guitar-based sample libraries, and I'm initially impressed with "Panorama Guitars". Is that something on your radar to review? As always, another great show!

Once again... Instagram sucks me in to wanting to buy YET ANOTHER plugin 😅. The algorithm definitely works when it works you out

Don, Thank you for another great Deal Compressor!

Has anyone pointed out the Dollar Delas at 0:25? Lol

I use this library with some of Stefano's Ethera Gold Vocal Samples. It seems to never come to an end finding new sounds with these incredible tools. Simply amazing quality and versatility.

I would like to hear your review of Beaufort by Orchestral Tools!

Hi Don, Audiofier have realised "RIFFENDIUM X" today, they have done an overview but would love a deeper dive into it's workflow and useablilty if you manage to grab a copy 👍

Not a fan of the recent disturbing cover images.

For your Information : Today ( June 21st ) is the French day of Music Fest ( "Fête de la musique") where everyone is invited to play music in the streets or on stages ! :)

Here first 🎶🎶😎

You say it's your second favorite acoustic guitar in the Evolution Engine from Orange Tree. What is your favorite?

After using Myth from Tracktion, and loving it, I have been curious about Novum. I could only find preset samples videos, this was the best video giving more details. Very well done. Thank you

This is my favourite percussion library. I will probably get Box Factory at some point as well. If you are only going to buy one library from Fracture Sounds, get this one. If lucky they have this on sale on black friday. I think I got it with 33% off.

Great review, thanks 🙏🏻

love it big time, but so expensive

why on earth is it £240
