    I´ve had the chance to test this library a few days ago.

    Years ago I actually purchased Kirk Hunter Diamond...... on a very cheap sale... lucky me.

    KH Diamond is loads of GBs of samples* and a huge amount nonsens scripts and gui´s ..... bugs, bugs, bugs all over. I was so happy I got it cheap and actually deleted the whole thing two years or so later.

    *Basically the Diamond library is very badly recorded!!

    Kirk Hunter Studios Lyric Series String Quintet:

    Samples:

    Still the same samples recorded nearly 30 years ago - now with yet another twist in some editor - but still the same samples.

    Script/GUI:
    Script and GUI has indeed improved a lot since Diamond..... Many useful features in the script and the GUI is easy to deal with finding what you need etc.

    So, will I actually spend $180 on this library?

    Nope, it´s old wine in new bottles with a twist and utterly worthless imho.

    I never liked sound of strings from Kirk Hunter... sounds to "synthy" for me.... not really realistic.... :dunno:
