Spitfire Audio is great for artists and composers. I went in originally not sure what kind of sounds and quality to expect. But since day one i honestly have never been disappointed. The quality and diversity Spitfire offers on their site has broadened my musical interests and sounds more than i thought going in. The interface is simple and easy to use when. 11/10 highly i recommend.
The only criticism as a relatively new user is the inconsistencies of the UI for different libraries. Some AUs under Spitfire Audio, some under NI Kontakt. Does make the learning curve longer and sometimes frustrating to find the plug in.
Spitfire is quickly becoming my new favorite source for sampled libraries. Why? Well first and foremost, the dedication these guys show for making libraries that sound amazing is evident. Second, I find that the libraries are very craft-able. By that I mean, a little tweaking here and there in MIDI, and you can draw out the authentic instrument sound you're looking for. All libraries do that to some extent. It's just that the Spitfire library recordings I make have been very satisfying to listen to later down the road -- you know, that point when they sound like someone else's music, and then you think, "Hey, that sounds pretty good. Wait, that's my stuff!" Next I find that their user interfaces are intuitive and easy. Generally keyswitches are easy to set up. They think of things from the user's perspective, and I appreciate their attention to detail. Most impressive so far to me is the "Abbey Road Orchestra" Performance Legatos. They are truly amazing. If you're a keyboard player, especially (which I'm not), you will love how intuitive it makes playing a string instrument with a keyboard. Finally, I appreciate how they give back. I love the free sample libraries they offer, and the fact that many libraries are so accessibly priced. The free LABS samples, for instance have been fun to play. And some of the cheapies make fun purchases, even if you're only playing around with it for an evening or two. The ONLY gripe I have is that many of the libraries load slowly. I think this can be remedied, my dear fellows at Spitfire. It would take going at it one library at a time, but I understand there are new ways to speed up loading times for these things. That's it. I love this company. Also, they have Homay Schmitz, whose mockup recordings I always love, and who is not difficult at all to look at during videos as, say, Paul. (Just kidding, Paul, I think your recordings and walkthroughs are fantastic, too! :)
Purchasing your products through your WEB Site is usually painless experience. I do like the videos associated with th eproduct so anybody can see what does it takes to make them work. The recordings are great too so you can see what you can do with them and how much can you push them. Disappointed that the freebies you guys used to give customers like during Chrisdtmas period are no longer downloadable... WHat a shame...
It's Simple, Spitfire is My Number One Toolkit! In any of my compositions, whether for film or pop music.I know that my workflow and tonal quality will be 5 Star. I just write in any style of music and know that my end, My Compositions Sound the way I hear them in my head.... :)) Thank U for constantly reinventing yourselves! 🫶💫 - Vanessa Frey
Simply great UI, easy to use, excellent sound! Great tool for the price.
I bought a plugin with excellent value for money. The purchase was very easy and I am very happy with this plugin!!
Everything from purchase to DAW installation was simple. No extra steps to get confused.
Super authentic sound, clean and beautiful emulation of the beautiful sounds of Gustavo Santaolalla. Very clean and dynamic.
Love the product, worth the price. Great amount of useful content.
Spitfire Audio has/had high quality samples. They have great artists and support staff. Too (sad) bad they are being subsumed by Splice. Something will change ... different model .... high quality lower volume ... moving to high volume ??? quality. Time will reveal..
What can be said about Spitfire audio, possibly the best samples going ,from the smallest to the biggest bundles, everything is always usable, and just fits in the mix, after years of using various sample libraries and spending far to much time sitting stuff into the mix with eqs and comps etc ,I just don't have this issue with any of the Spitfire stuff.
Easy to find what I wanted, and easy to complete the purchase
