Wow this was amazing, just read about the entire project.  I think I'll get his album off of CD Baby: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/novachordrestoration

There's even a 3.5 GB Kontakt library sampled from this!  *seizure*

Absolutely beautiful sounds coming out of this thing and well worth the cost of the sample pack. Did anybody happen to notice that the Reason Refill is only $80?

I spent over 10 hours making yet another multisample from the Novachord having captured another 40 minutes of raw digital audio from the beast and the final results have blown my socks off - this is 100% Novachord, no extra filtering or LFOs - just 70 Mbytes of samples into chorus and reverb!! You can hear the Novachord's gorgeous 6 channel electomechanical vibrato in full swing (literally!) in a quick demo I recorded using a midi file I got off the net:

These have got to be some of the most beautiful vintage synth strings I've ever heard!

This multi-sample is available as a --FREE-- taster for Kontakt:

The sample archive is already being used in professional applications - it's all over the orchestral score for the multi-million dollar XBox 360 game "Alan Wake" due to be released later this year.

Wow, amazing job. A beautiful instrument, sensitively and meticulously captured.

I'm finding it seriously difficult to justify NOT buying it.

Did you give in??? smile

No.  You share the same name as a famous American folk singer.  That should be reason enough not to change your name.

As you said, "you get what you pay for."

Arfink wasn't saying "drop the price," he was saying "cut some samples and the price to give very basic functionality to more budget-minded people."  Half the samples, half price.  He wasn't saying it's overpriced and you should be ashamed of yourself, simply that it would be nice for the poor musicians (most) to be able to get a taste of the Novachords awesome power.

Steve and I have been considering exactly this smile - we're just not sure quite how to tackle it at the moment.  I suspect you will have to wait a while before a "lite" version is released as Hollow Sun are still developing the full version for several other platforms.
