Humble Bundle: Aria Sounds London Symphonic Strings Bundle $20

[LinkedMusicians]

PETER’S TAKE: I don’t own this sample library – which requires the full version of Kontakt — however, I have heard from sample library developers and music producers, and seen dozens of posts stating that it is not a very good sample library. In fact, over at least several years, the only posts on legacy forums I have ever seen about this sample library from people who bought it is unfavorable. I have never seen even one satisfied customer post. But one developer I know and trust who had the library years ago told me that it is very poor.

Consequently, while I am posting this, I am strongly recommending against purchasing this, even for $20. While I’ve never used the library myself, from what I’ve been told by a trusted, top-tier developer, and the feedback of many users of the library on multiple forums, I feel it’s important to make our community aware of the reputation of this sample library. Even for $20, a poor quality sample library is not a good deal. It doesn’t help that the presenter isn’t a very good player (I’m definitely don’t mean to be harsh, but if you’re creating a video to promote a sample library, you should be able to perform at a competent level). Watch the video to hear it for yourself.
