edrummist,
Regarding Diamond Orchestra, is the group buy purchase option for Diamond TVEC 3 or TVEC 4?

It was TVEC 3, but Kirk told me just a short while ago that he just updated it to TVEC 4 and that everyone in the Group Buy who buys Diamond will get TVEC 4 at no additional cost. So, if you downloaded Diamond and it does not have TVEC 4, all you have to do is re-open your download link page and you'll see the TVEC 4 instruments added.

Darn, I bought Diamond shortly after I posted my question to you, didn't see TVEC 4 so I purchased the TVEC 4 update...

Email Kirk. He told me he's doing a bunch of refunds today from people who purchased at the full list price and got the GB discounts in a refund. He'll take care of you. If you have any issues or don't hear back from his today, PM me with your real name and email you registered for the GB with and I'll make sure takes care of you.

[EDIT: Oops. I missed your next post and only caught it after posting my above response. In any event, I'm glad everything got sorted so quickly and you saved even more than you originally expected!]

I should just keep my refund and stick with CS2 and CB2 but I want the other stuff. I don't need it, at all, but I wants...

I realize a lot of people are not fans of Facebook, but for those who are, here are two Facebook groups I think are useful for Kirk Hunter Studios sample library users:
 
Kirk Hunter Studios official Facebook page. It's a very good place to get quick answers or give input on products. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Kirk-Hunter-Studios/166896966681426
 
Kirk Hunter Studios User Group. This is a small, informal, group of Kirk Hunter Studios power users on Facebook. It's not something officially sanctioned by Kirk Hunter Studios, it's my own thing, but Kirk is a group member himself and it's a really small group of very talented and super nice musicians/people from all over the world, some are professional musicians, some are hobbyists.

can someone with Diamond tell me how easy it is to use?  I can't find youtube videos etc.  I listened to the demos songs and samples on the website but.....I don't know.
 
I have Miroslav philharmonic in my IK Total Studio 3 bundle.  nice, okay and I use it from time to time.
I have EastWest symphony platinum complete and I don't use it at all, hard to use, PLAY engine is okay on my machine but really it's rather difficult  product for me to use.
 
Would KH Diamond be a good general orch library to have even though it's a bit older?

Bapu - I'm also a previous customer. Aren't we supposed to get an email or something with the extra 5 percent code? You've noted you were downloading it above. What happened for you regarding the 5 percent?

MClaw, I also have Miroslav which is pretty good, but it needs a bit of "massaging" to get it to sound decent.....and with a lot of tweaking you can get it to sound really good. The Diamond Collection is just WOW as soon as you put your fingers on the keys. I was amazed immediately at the quality and rich fullness of the sounds right our of the box......no tweaking or added FX was necessary. There's a lot of good tutorials/tips at the KHS website as well. I can highly recommend this and IMO, it just blows Miro out of the water.  

Thanks.  sounds like a decent library to have the toolkit.

You have to email Kirk with copy of your receipt (proof) and he will subscribe you to a list of 5 percenters.
 
The 5% rebate will be issued by Feb 28.

Sigh. I just failed my will save and so I bought spotlight and diamond. I've bought everything except pop rock and solo strings 1 at this point :P.

First time buyer here, picked up Diamond last night, downloading now. Thanks for the info and endorsements guys
