I'm in love!

[acidrock]

with a sampler called Kompakt!

It like,completely kicks ASS!

From this point forward any sampler that does'nt support most if not all formats is a JOKE!
Also if it does'nt support huge samples with direct from disc reading,it is just a pretender.

That is all,you may carry on.

 

[acidrock]

BTW
My sampler can kick your samplers ASS!
unless you have Kontakt that is....

Aw man, acid. I've got children in college and ex-wives to support.

I saw the list of samples provided, and it is quite impressive. The question is, are they any good? I mean, I would take 1/10th of that volume if I could get horn samples that sounded like Chuck.

Ah, on second thought let me think about that last statement for awhile.

 

[acidrock]

The string samples are very good,I have'nt gotten to the horns yet.
I converted some of my GIGA files with no problem.Gigapiano is 650 megs!!!This means I have a HUGE collection of sounds.

The thing is,you can get as good of sounds as you can dream of,but it'll cost you $$$$$.

This program is v-e-r-y e-a-s-y to use.

So how much is it cut down from Kontakt? I've been trying to find some specifics about the difference between the two, but since kompakt is so new I haven't heard much about it.

But doesen't it cost an arm and a leg?

$169 US

Remember I'm talking about Kompakt not Kontakt.

Oh, right! There's a difference! DOH!

Well, it's still 2000 NOK = $250 in Norway...

Yeah,but you guys get your smoked fish for half the price we pay in the states.

Seriously, smoked fish is overrated...

Hey thanks I check NI's site when I first heard about it, but they didn't have that much info about it then.

It looks very tempting. My sampling needs aren't that extensive so I always thought something like kontakt or halion would be a little overkill. But at the same time I wanted something of quality, so this might be just what I was looking for.

...and so Java Boys

Hey Acidrock, will you get your part on the collabs ? Sounds like a perfect time to give your Kompakt a shoot Bring it oooon, boys

 

[moskus]

Just admit it, you like them.

 

[James Argo]

Just admit it, you like them.

...hhmmmm <--think twice...

...Well, at least there's no tax for "using" them

 

[Paul881]

A/r, I told you so, after kompakt or kompakt, why would you want any other sampler for use in Sonar?

Dachay, the horns are awesome

 

[acidrock]

Hey Acidrock, will you get your part on the collabs ?

hmmm,we've got enough "good" guitar players,maybe we could use a "bad" one on this project.

A/r, I told you so, after kompakt or kompakt, why would you want any other sampler for use in Sonar?

But seriously folks,I don't think I'll be using any other DXI from this point forward,for natural or synthesised sounds.
