The right tool for the job

This is a sound-design library intended for a limited purpose: pitched drones. It's not a flexible melodic library - like, you won't be able to use these harmonic pads in songs easily because they're arranged by major chords, minor chords, and open 5ths. It's more for giving interesting texture for room/suspense tones, trailers, etc, a lot like XOSphere but without the wonky interface.

Great sound, not good workflow

Great and soulful sound. Evolving soundscapes. But I wish for enhancements in the workflow. From what I see I have to load all the presets manually and they all look the same. I have not used, and am not sure I will use this library because it does not fit my workflow very well. But if it was enhanced with browser, better GUI and NKS I will be much more likely to use it.

Sounds good, could be laid out better.

The actual pads sound really good, but the way the instruments are laid out, you must load both the major and minor instruments to follow a key's scale. Better might have been having major pads at one end of the keyboard and minor pads at the other. For instance, you are playing in C major but want to play a D or A chord. In C these would both be minor chords. The "Open" instrument solves this by having notes stretched across the whole keyboard, but then one needs to play the chords, just like any other instrument. No matter, I can always rewrite the instruments to split the keyboard into major and minor sections, but for this, I have docked it one star from my rating, which might otherwise be 5 stars.
