Easy ordering and download The optimize option could have been a bit clearer What I do miss is either the possibility to sell on products or trade-in. I have now SSO and BBCSO (as well as Abbey road) I could do with only BBCSO but are stuck with both (and they are all pretty pricy)
The sounds of the Intimate packages are really beautiful. The dynamics and intensity of the pianos are really realistic. I hope that new packages can come out, maybe more similar to the Yamaha C. Great Job!

It sounds good and I like the mix strings on the software.
What's great: - Generally high quality sounds + fidelity, which ist most important - Emotive sounds, which are frequently exactly whats needed - Drum Labs is a very good Drum VST and most Drum VST's are not good, so still improving here is a great market opportunity, the high fidelity drums are essential What could be improved: - You only really know what something sounds like once you can demo it in the DAW - Fidelity can always be improved, although already one the better ones for sure
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.
Realy good sounds. A bit hard to install.
I've been using Spitfire Audio libraries for quite a while now. The last library I recently bought sounds great and of course, the rebate on the price was no brainer.
Overall a really great choir sound, and a huge asset when it comes to adding more textures to my music. My only wish is that there could have been keyswitch syllables for the sustained notes, but still excellent value for money
