Hey guys, I've had some interest in the libraries of EastWest but I keep reading horror stories
both in stability and customer service. Granted, these reads I've read in various forums are a bit dated so I'm just wondering who here is using PLAY instruments successfully in either X1 or X2? I'm mainly concerned with i series, Win 7 x64 bit environments. 

I haven't tried it in X2 yet but I have no problems at all in X1 with EWQLSO Gold.  Play 3 is very stable.

No problems with PLAY in X1 or X2 for me.  Using EWQLSO Gold, Symphonic Choirs, Storm Drum 2, VOP, Ra, and Silk.

I have Fab Four which uses Play and have had zero issues. 

There was a very convoluted install procedure however which boiled down to downlaoding the latest Play version and then dragging the Fab Four samples from the DVD into the appropiate folder.

Bought X2 and Play CCC the other week. Running a strict 64 bit system. ZERO problems whatsoever so far - Play involved or not.

No problems with Play in X1 here. 

Yep, PLAY is working here too... EastWest Symphonic Orchestra Platinum Plus.

The problems occur when mismatched versions are installed between the Play software and the iLok software. As long as you install the current versions of both, you should be fine.

EastWest Symphonic Orchestra is rock solid here, never had a problem with play in either X1 or X2 or the couple other DAWs I used play with.

Also rock solid here running EWQLSO Platinum Plus.

I have a 134 track template set up with different instances of Play for different orchestra sections, and it runs like a dream.

I've also set up, for each instrument, a second Midi track, arranged as a Drum Map where all of my Keyswitching takes place.

wow nice to hear guys! I'd be running it with Kontakt as well so I am hoping they play nicely together. Thanks for all of your feedback
