There is some ambiance recorded to the samples but it's way cleaner and never a problem for me. So, I needed a change and bought Kirk Hunters Emerald for Giga. Of course the makes sense to some degree, but when it seems random, and not based on musicality and playability, I also found inconsistencies in start times for the same note relative to the velocity layer. With even a fully quantized track and the same velocity for each note the ones with the different start times need to be slid off the grid,įorwards or back to make a consistent sounding performance. I see it as limiting the possibility for a feeling of closeness and it makes it difficult, for me, to play with sensitivity.Īnd the reverb can't be turned off as it's recorded on the samples.Ģ) Poor playability because of inconsistent sample start times in many many instruments.Ī general example would be you play a G and the G# and F# surrounding it have a different timing/feel making it impossible to play a part without having to either compensate for the different timings, or fix it in the piano roll view by sliding notes. Of course, this is just my subjective opinion.ġ) The hall ambiance/reverb recorded on the samples began to become difficult, for me, to work with.
I soon found the other instruments in Gold very limiting. The transition from one layer to an other is too much of a change for me. I still use and like the percussion instruments, even though they have limited velocity layers and sometimes was EW Gold and the old player before they released their new player so some things may have changed.
