Heya folks, simple question - tough answer,

right now, what are some great virtual instruments and Kontakt libraries with medieval/folk instruments, such as bagpipes, hurdy gurdy etc..?

I ran across CineWinds Pro which might do fine, but those are just winds

thanks for all the suggestions folks, keep em coming,
I'll go through them all

 

I'd say all the libraries by Eduardo Tarilonte. Such masterpieces. Beware they are made for Engine (but you get that with your purchase anyway).
You also have the EW QL Ra/Silk/Gypsy depending on which style you're after.
UVI also has World Suite 2 which has very good stuff in it.

well, a mic and 3 or 4 rocks would do it, try to knock em and share the result, older than this ...

 

i loved this one and also the soniccouture

 

Sticking with the folk theme, are there any libraries that have a Serpent included?
