An ode to the lifelong passion of master craftsman Jean-Claude Chapuis, and his singular ensemble at the prestigious Philharmonie de Paris, Glass Orchestra delivers 14 exquisitely crafted and expertly sampled instruments, recorded in numerous playing styles, and presented in an expansive sound design environment with native MPE support. Glass Orchestra is available now, with a special introductory price of $129 / 129€ available through February 5th, 2024 (regularly $199 / 199€).

the Gamelan, Glass Bells, Seraphin, Cristal Baschet, Marimba, Harp, Glass Armonica, Cymbal Bells, Verrophone, Chimes, Tympanon, Balafon, Carillon, and Triangle, each available in multiple playing styles ranging from traditional to experimental.

blew (I mean used) my vouchers on World Suite. No regrets, I'm glad I have it. This does look really tempting. I tend to gravitate toward these sorts of playable bell-like sounds....
This. I knew what I was getting with WS2, and I'm still glad to have it, but these days I always prefer depth over bredth when it comes to sample collections.

True. I'm using World Suite as a kind of "fill in the gaps" library for things I don't have, so in that way it made sense, especially for the $.
 
"Need"? Oh, @Octave_Jumper you must be new here :) In all seriousness... I definitely have a fair amount of libraries with the glass / metal / steel thing going on, but this really sounds great, and to have it in the Falcon world and all its MP3 goodness is going to be very, very cool. Can't wait to play around with this on the Block Ms very soon!
 
The voucher I am referring to is the annual rewards voucher based on your purchases for the year from uvi.net that were sent out earlier this month and have to be used by January 31. So there was no time for it to burn a hole in a pocket.
 
Purchased. With a couple of vouchers and the intro price, getting this for $24 is awesome. Thanks to UVI for their great loyalty program. And hopefully the ongoing flow from my wallet to their accounts receivable continues to produce great products.
 
I had never bought any UVI intrument before, but this one was very tempting. I'm a fan of strange exotic sounds and I'm not disapointed. What sold me on that one is the MPE, not a lot of libraries manage MPE, and I'm very happy this time, I can fully use my roli lumi keys ! And there are even some special presets for MPE. It's a huge librarie and it sounds so unusal, with many possibilties, and various intruments. Very good for SF, fantastic, magic stuff or even meditation. A looooot of presets, I haven't yet finished testing them all.
If there is an update one day, I would say some of the MPE presets are barely audible (example : "Sea Ghost" and "Over Dune"), maybe it's done on purpose but a little more volume would be better for my old ears !
Thank you UVI for this great librarie, I really enjoy it !
