As much as I'm inclined to sarcasm, I always love when a company proves that my apprehensions were not justified and I love to give them credit for it. 
 
So, kudos to Camel Audio. I had an issue trying to install 2 new sound banks I bought last night, so I wrote to them. Since it was past 1 am my time, on a Sunday, I wasn't expecting any reply before at least Monday, probably later.
 
But when I logged in this morning I found that they had already sent an e-mail with a fix. 
 
Looks like Alchemy will be a more than fitting successor to the derelict Rapture and Dimension Pro as my go to 3rd party synth for odd soundscapes and textures.
 
(I know it's got much more potential than just that, but Rapture and Dim Pro were an integral part of my workflow for so long, so I'm glad to see that covered).

Alchemy is wonderful and my go to synth above all others.  Great company.  Part of their profits go to environmental charities.  I don't use Rapture or Dim Pro any more.

I didn't know that. Alway nice to hear of a company that gives back (Valhalla DSP is another one which comes to mind).
 
Isn't Alchemy based on .SFZ, like Rapture and Dim Pro? A shame that Cakewalk who had a very strong set of instruments w/ tons of potential just sort of gave up on them...

+1 Camel - some of the first plug ins I ever purchased and still using them today - and can only confirm they are a great company to deal with

You can pm them on KVR too. The only wait is usually the time difference. Sharp as tacks.

I love how SH1's avatar needs a side scroll bar.

Dynamite synths,
Reflecting also on why haven't opened up Rapture of Dim Pro for awhile. Dim Pro probably still a keeper.

I'll take every opportunity I can to commend CA for the superb documentation.  Alchemy is one of the deepest, most flexible synths out there.  IMO, it has the best documentation by a mile.  I seldom have use for Alchemy because it's forte seems to be sound-track/scape sounds.  But it's an engineering marvel - and like I said, the documentation is the gold standard.
