The End is Near
I know this place is full of Spitfire fanboys so I'm sure they'll be some disagreements.
Anyways, another big lib is announced today. An Albion library.
My question to Spitfire is why are so many products being released when there are still many things that need to be fixed with other products.
The new Spitfire player has quite a few issues as many here keep posting. Seems they are getting fixed at a snails pace.
My own personal beef is with the Studio Woodwinds. At first...I thought maybe Spitfire would fix the single mic issue, but now I'm thinking its never going to happen...and because of that, I regret the purchase.....and for the record there are very few purchases I regret making in the VI sample world.
I think it is pretty much in universal agreement now that the single tree mic for the Core was a terrible idea. It is near impossible to position the instrument in a mix. The price is good and I have no issues with only 1 mic. But it should be a MIXED mic. Would it really be that much trouble to have an update and change the single mic to a MIXED mic instead of the TREE mic?
I decided to look at as many other 'budget' or 'core' libs as I could find. They all come with mixed mics. Even EW comes with the mixed mic in the Gold edition. What on earth made Spitfire think a single tree mic was a good idea?....and with so many people here complaining about it, why isn't there an update with a mixed mic?
Obviously too busy bringing out new libs with problems that won't be fixed either. It seems from listening to others here that the Studio Woodwinds sound nice in the PRO edition....and that's great. I had the upgrade on my Wishlist this Christmas but decided against it because why pay more money when a proper mixed mic would have been good enough for me? I felt that I was forced to upgrade in order to get a usable library and I don't think that is fair.
