This looks like a really good deal (if you like some Brass in your.....collection). I was reading the SOS review on this and it got a good review.
However, they also mentioned this at the bottom of that article:
 
"Constructing a multi-articulated brass arrangement in Fanfare can become time‑consuming and unwieldy, since the 'traditional' instrument articulations exist only as separate patches, with no means of changing articulations on the fly via keyswitches. What's needed is some way to compile a keyswitchable collection of articulations: fortunately, a company called Orange Tree Samples has the solution in the form of a Kontakt Multi-script called Mind Control. Mind Control is a layer-based mapping engine used in conjunction with Kontakt Instrument Banks. Simply load the Mind Control Multi-script, then load all the required articulations into the separate instrument slots of an Instrument Bank, and define a set of conditions (for example, keyswitches) to switch between them. Simple, efficient, and rather good. There's more info at www.orangetreesamples.com."
 
 
 
What say ye' about this deal?
 
 
(BTW, Amazon also has the same deal)

I got it at this price & it's a good bargain if you can use this type of lib.. More for sound design than straight brass, be aware it uses 30 GB of hard drive space.
With the multis it's similar to Morphestra which is a bit limited too but comes in handy for certain things.
With this price they're probably getting rid of stock & planning a new updated release.
