I grew up with miserable British TV/Movies … So, I love this library! 😜

[@SecondTierSound]

Hehe. I did too, well sort of, Sweden has a very similar style. And quite a few shows from Britain get broadcasted here as well.

[@OleJ-DK]

Very good walk through, thank you.

[@mdtcomm1533]

I have always admired/liked UK film composers so thank you for this. Sounds quite useful. Well done!!

[@spokansas]

Fantastic explanation of how the expression wheel works for this library. Much clearer now! Great instrument and great review. Thanks!

[@SecondTierSound]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@MichaelAbbottisBrainyGamer]

The banana bit was inspired. 🙂 I always enjoy your walkthroughs and reviews.

[@SecondTierSound]

It was a split decision...

[@avydavy123]

Thanks, just bought the product from this review

[@SecondTierSound]

Enjoy!

[@kingslaphappy1533]

The sound is very realistic and the timbres nicely varied, super well recorded, however I would have a problem with the build in swelling as that alto sax did so prominently. Working a lot with the All In bundle from Audio Modeling I enjoy the ability to control expression where and when i want it. Great demo!

[@SecondTierSound]

You can control that with the velocity. Cheers!

[@kingslaphappy1533]

Nevertheless the rate at which that alto sax was swelling and its peak brightness at “ max swell” is recorded and not user defined.

[@SecondTierSound]

It's only max, at max velocity. But sure, this is a quick solution, not a full control library.

[@antekketna7080]

Again, thank you

[@music_creator_capable]

Really nice!

[@SecondTierSound]

Cheers!

[@MartinJG100]

I think I would always prefer to have the instruments and do my own arrangements even if it takes a little longer. Thanks for the review.

[@SecondTierSound]

That is preferred by most I think. Cheers!

@@SecondTierSound Sam, for reference, after some thought, I recently acquired Solstice in the recent sale. As far as I can see, that one acquisition covers all my 'squirly' needs which are otherwise offered on several of Spitfire's other products. I think the old mantra of quality and 'playability' is the key which, of course, is why some libraries age well, but unlike a good wine, once corked, they last a little longer :). I guess that presents a saturation conundrum if you are a developer in a relatively limited market.

A new vid !

[@chrismusic44]

Just wonderful 🤩🤩🤩

[@LightWingStudios]

OMG! It's...THE BIG BANANA! :)

[@SecondTierSound]

It's a good instrument😁
