It sounds good anyways... it comes with a very good selection of samples, my only criticism would be that it doesnt come with any strings... you get guitars (steel 6/12 string & classical), real acoustic bass, a good selection of drums & percussion and 'The best of synth' providing a selection of pads, leads and other synth sounds & fx... a good selection for doing contemporary production work basicaly... Like i said, all I need is some good string discs and also some selection of middle-eastern instrument sounds i'm sorted.... it's a good package all in all.

It's damned easy to use and has filters and modulation options that you'd only find on the most expensive h/w units if at all.

Thanks people.
Looks like I'm going to go with the crossgrade deal for exs24 owners. 40% off can't really go wrong...
Bit of a shame theirs no strings...I don't really want any samples of NI synths really.
What are the drum kits like that come with it... Having said that only 3 months till I can afford a machindrum.. then I'll have to sample the shit out of that into Kontakt.. Hmm looks like I'll have everything I need to safely say I'll never finish anything again!

Is 16 the limit on mulitouts? I was hoping for 32 or so, I want to build a kit for percussion and I don't really want all the different types coming through the same outs. Seems a shame as I'll have to have several instances open. bit of a waiste of cpu.
