Thanks for the reply - the news on Mach 5 is great - I am really getting into this and whilst there are a few things kontakt has in its favour (quicker loading times being the biggest probably) with my new super duper Windows 7 64 bit Computer, this actually is only a minor advantage (they both load quickly as compared to my old 32bit machine!)
I hope your business model is working and continues to work - and I also hope you get 200 at $5 as opposed to 4 at $125!!! That way EVERYONE"S happy. And the more happy you are the more products we get to play with!!
Just to re-emphasize this, last week I got a "special" offer from another library producer - I think it was money off for a new year sale, plus money off as an existing user and money offer as the day of the week had a "Y" in it!!
Anyway with all the money stuff the library was still a $100.
It was a lovingly sampled single instrument - I listened to it - sounded beautiful but a little esoteric - and then I thought careful:-
1) If I didn't buy it now I would lose all those discounts
2) But if I did buy it, how many times would l use it in the sort of music I am into
Well common sense prevailed - I realised I might use this once or twice, then as it was SO unique sounding, that would be it.
Now if the library had been $10 I would have just purchased it!
So I hope you and the guy at forgotten keys keep doing the business - I am just producing some new stuff at the moment and each track has it's usual quota of Hollow Sun stuff on it, plus now I'm adding some Forgotten Keys as well!
Cheers
