I got this library to add to my palette a more South/East Asian colour. I really love Ethnic Winds like this only Xiao or the Dizi but I was disappointed with this one for solo instruments. They phase horribly and make it sound like 2/3 instruments together and not an expressive solo instrument. The ensembles are great and help add those Asian flavours to traditional orchestrations but I am let down by the solos. Even though solo Erhu sounds like 2-3 Erhus due to the phasing... I went ahead and bought the Ample Sound Ethnic winds and the Erhu and those are just incredible instruments. So, be warned, if you're getting this one solely for the solos, you'll be disappointed. But the rest of it is great though 😊
Great but what about Afflatus chapiter 2 ?!
