Reply To: EastWest Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition $149 reg. $399 +DeluxeBucks +FREE Gift

“HOOPUS” for $149 is a great deal.  It does eat a whole terabyte if you download the entire library, but the Opus engine does support “download on demand”, where sections are only downloaded as you implement them.  You will have to wait a bit (or maybe a long time), depending on your d/l speed and how many sections / articulations your patch requires.  Once stored locally, they stay in place until removed, so as you pull in new data the drive space will increase, unless you clear it out.  I bought this on a terabyte SSD for an extra $50 from EastWest a couple years ago, but the drive ended up failing after about a year and a half, so I don’t recommend that option.
