New Indiginus Library...yay!
Tracy has moved from guitars into keyboards this time...it's a Wurly. Very excited to get my hands on this one. $49 intro price. http://indiginus.com/wurle_studio.html

Just posted in deals (because that seems to be the way of things these days). The demos do sound good but it seems to be a very crowded corner of the market to venture into. It would be good to know if this one stands out from the crowd in some way.

I love Indiginus and Tracy...but how many Rhodes and/or Wurli libraries do we need? If it was...Wowie Zowie...better than all the others...for sure. But is it? Really? Is it?

I've been comparing it to the Wurlys I have here on hand: the EP engine in my Kronos, Lounge Lizard Session, and Keyscape.
Of the four, the Indiginus has the best "clean" sound. Keyscape beats it for dirt, though. As with most sampled EPs, this one will likely benefit from a good outboard amp sim for dynamic grit.
To answer your (rhetorical?) question, ol' pal, if you've already got a handful of Wurlitzers in your arsenal - as I know you do - then this would probably be superfluous. For me, though, I don't, and it isn't. I'm going to install this on my laptop and see how it cuts through a rock band tomorrow.

I am surprised Keyscape did not do a real clean sample though. I would of thought that would be a good starting point. I know I would like a clean Wurli sound. Kurzweil cover it rather nicely though.

My favorite Keyscape instrument is the dirty Hohner Pianet. It's long been a favorite instrument, but rarely sampled. Spectrasonics is well-known for sample quality, but they deserve more respect for their effects. I just wish Keyscape gave you more flexibility with them like Omnisphere does.
The Wurlitzer EP has always been my favorite keyboard instrument. A big part of that love has to do with the keyboard action, though, not just its sound. Like a Rhodes, it's very expressive. Play it softly and it's pretty, hit it hard and it growls. This is what I'm missing from every Wurlitzer library so far; you can get pretty or you can get gritty, but you can't have both during a single solo. That's not entirely the fault of the library, though, but rather keyboards that try to walk a middle line between fast synth action and piano-like tactile feel, usually resulting in unsatisfying meh mush.

Aside from Lounge Lizard, I'm fond of Arturia's modelled Wurli V2.

Geez, the slowness of this forum can be irritating. Duplicate deleted.

Prior to this new Wurli option, I would first off rave about Soniccouture's Broken Wurli.
If you're an admirer of Supertramp, Steely Dan, Queen and other notable Wurli bands then Broken Wurli is a stellar choice. I love it.
I like Tracy's stuff so will be looking at this. But I already have a couple great Wurlis in Broken Wurli and in the above mentioned Arturia Wurlitzer V which is also good. So unlikely I'll be motivated for now.
