I really like Composer Cloud. All the instruments are amazing and just the idea of it is brilliant. The only criticism I have...which I guess isn't necessarily terrible...is that you can tell it was created by engineers as opposed to musicians. Meaning that yes, you can do amazing things with these instruments, and they can sound very, very rich, and live sounding. The problem is that you have to do a lot of programming so to speak to get them to behave the way you want. Expression maps on Cubase is a lifesaver for this reason. It's not a terrible or even a bad thing, but this has a learning curve and not as beginner user-friendly as Spitfire and a few others are. Overall this is still an amazing subscription and amazing libraries. Silk and Ra are my favorite libraries for the more ethnic stuff!

Have been using EWQL for almost 10 years now and never had a complaint with the quality of the samples. I highly recommend them. Guy, your channel motivated me to write some music and I am planning to release it under creative commons. Would love to send you some stuff so you can see what you made me do :p P.S. I've was using EWQL Symphonic orchestra in 2010 and still use it to this day. I never got the Hollywood library. I also have Goliath, Stormdrum, Pianos Platinum, Ministry or Rock (1 and 2), Symphonic Choirs with Wordbuilder and Voices of Passion. I recommend against keyswitches because as you noticed, the articulations tend to have different voluments and you have to mess with midi velocity and volume to get the performance to sound consistent but if you load them as separate samples, you can adjust the volume and other parameters for each articulation individually without having to adjust every single node in the midi programming. Regardless of what you choose, you will need to spend a lot of time programming the midi offline to get it to sound natural. I have yet to master that art.

I used CC for a number of years but eventually decided to cut it loose. It absolutely is a monster library. Its a serious collection of instruments. The orchestral stuff is easily up there Spitfire and VSLI. But theres two glaring problems. 1) The Keyswitching is utterly cooked. Every instrument has different Keyswitches, they are poorly documented and have no consistency. 2) The Play engine is horrible. Its a memory and disk speed hungry monster. The load times are so slow. With all that said, I must reiterate , the instruments are fantastic. The Hollywood orchestra stuff is more then enough for professional work, the 'hollywood' in the name is not exagurating, and the EQQLSO library ALSO great. On top of that theres some fantastic choirs, loads of drum kits, various barely interesting hip hop packs , theme libraries, and the Golliath library just has frigging everything non orchestral. It *doesnt* have good pop brass/sax (the pop brass library is very uininteresting) so jazz fiends need to keep that in mind, it could also do with some good albion style sketching pads. But other than that , and the messy articulation setup, no real content complaints

I'm still waiting for a composer friend for advice - as I had decades ago. I'm virtually restarting after a 'coma' and don't want to double up on orchestra instruments. I've just been looking at CineStrings - with a complete range of articulations. I don't have a $1million to spend, but would say $3000 satisfy a fairly full array of orchestral instruments, with choir etc.? What is realistic for getting the best. I'm not a poor student, but I have neurological problems dealing with all the choice. . I had nearly a month in hospital. I took in my laptop and MIDI keyboard, but it was the most horrendous place for noise. .

But I just wish they did a 2.0 of this library and made some moderns tweaks to the sounds and the interface. My orchestral templates with Hollywood take up to 10 minutes to load...

I mainly compose "Chamber Music" - and listen to a lot of Ravel, Debussy, Takemitsu, Barber, Hindemith and Post-Minimalist such as John Adams, and Gavin Bryars. It's easy to appreciate the application of these general sounds for things like Film, and Video Games.

Thus, though I have seriously considered diving into Composer Cloud, I can see now, thanks to this revealing expose', that I would spend most of my time frustrated. Not my preferred "go to" mindset. So, I need to start planning on a new system with, like, a bagazillion Gb and 4200 cores, or...something more like what you use. Which poses the question, what do you use?

I am currently a student of yours, with the How to compose music and Music Theory bundle and even though I aced the exams, still you "lerned" me on the overtone series which I can see now a little better how you pianists (guitar player myself) voice chords and why they sound like they do. Anyway, I was thinking it might be fun to see a guitar-based midi composer working with sounds in Composer Cloud or Kontakt doing non-traditional sounds with midi. I am using Jam Origin Midi Guitar 2 but there are other products out there. On that front I can say that the little bit I have fooled with it makes me really work at precision to keep from triggering false notes. I suspect that to be the case no matter which platform. I would like to see guitar used in a composition. Thanks again.

About the KSFP samples in East West. East West recorded open strings which don’t always sound very nice when you hit them. You can tell if you leave it in position 1 and you hit one of the notes... it’s odd. Changing the finger position fixes it. I dunno... sometimes I wish it would just play the nicer sample and other times I think it’s cool to have such control.

Also the instruments in e.g. Hollywood Strings/Brass/Woodwinds are just not nearly as playable as other alternatives such as stuff made by Cinesamples, Cinematic Studio Series or Audio Imperia. This is particularly true for legato. Kontakt instruments also seem to have a significantly smaller memory footprint.

When you cancel your subscription are the banks you downloaded still available?

I really think this is a industry disruptive product... The price is reasonable... I have a question... Will future libraries also be accessible once they are released or is the total number of libraries be constant?

No they keep adding them to the cloud so you get new libraries too

With regards to the needing 4 (5) hands thing. I map the volume to a midi foot pedal. So, if you will, an instrument accelerator pedal fuelled by my slippers of 'its 6 am, I've just woke, I'm feeling inspired, and who wants to write music? ME!' (... now where is the extra hand for my dandelion tea).
