Just curious as to what library you own and is your “go-to” for composition, and why it is your choice.
Thanks

Key switches don’t appear to be reassignable. Sustained strings don’t appear to be looped except for the key switched Violin A. Unlooped string samples are only good for about 2 – 3 measures at 100 BPM then they drop out.

In reply to Andy K. Lots of recordings used MP2 or even the original MP back in the days, they all sound great to this day.

A poorly recorded orchestral sample library that hasn’t really improved itself enough to compete on any level other than with Garritan… and that’s not saying much at all.

I’m sorry… but with the scripting available from other orchestral libraries, the only place this library fits is, as a beginning composer’s first orchestral library… and even as such, does not adequately provide the scripting and controls that the advanced libraries possess thus leaving a new composer having to relearn MIDI composition and orchestration…

MP2 is an attempt to bring a dinosaur back to life…

Great review D! If I was in need of another symphonic instrument, this is definitely what I’d reach for :)
