Although old, these libraries are still very good on my view, especially the separates like the harp.

I didn’t even realize that they were a much older library before you mentioned it. Heck, it was an EastWest library that alone made me want to attempt playing again, the Fab Four library. Although I ended up basically getting sample libraries of most of those instruments with a lot more detail from various developers. I am a sucker for that Beatles sound. And, come to think of it, your avatar elsewhere was the Vox logo. I loved seeing that! I still dream of a sample library developer creating something that has a George Martin string section vibe to it (i.e.,, Eleanor Rigby strings). I actually — long ago — used to try to persuade Greg to do a Beatle-esque background vocal library with doos, ahhs, oohs, etc. I even offered to fund it / invest in it. I later pitched it to several other developers, no takers. So the next best thing, IMO, are the Soul and Hollywood background vocalist libraries from EastWest. If they did a Fab Four background vocals library — that would be an instant buy. Even writing it makes me wish it were a thing. I used to chat with Ken Scott (Beatles engineer) every so often, as we have a mutual industry friend, and I should have pitched the idea of getting him involved. I could still reach out to him, I suppose. Does anyone else like this idea?

If so, I could take it to some developers and talk to Ken about it. I think I’ll do another thread about it this week. I would still love to see that library idea come to life.
