First Call Horns Big fish Audio
On the website they claim that this sound set is compatible with the Mach V. Can anyone confirm this? Or does this require a conversion process?

fwiw,
I remember reading that BigFish libraries are not allowed to be used commercially or you need to get permission on a case by case basis.
I'm not sure if this is still true but I'd check just in case.........

That wouldn't make much sense and would probably stop a lot of folks from nuying. THis is from their site:kgdrum wrote:fwiw,

Sounds like it's OK for production. I don't know that the "not for production" thing would hold up in court anyway. You're using it for the intended purpose and if a company tries to block you from using sounds in your composition, it would be like Steinway saying you can't record their pianos. Totally counter-productive and too limiting based on the "intended use." I'd love to fight that one in court.License Agreement

More importantly, their demos (listening demos) don't work in Safari or Chrome and if they can't get that right, why would i trust their samples? I'll pass, thank you, but I appreciate the o/p letting us know and posting the link. Thanks!

Re: First Call Horns Big fish Audio
I can't see a claim about Mach 5 on the site. In theory you can read some Giga and Kontakt files into Mach five, although I have very little success with Kontakt imports.ronjams wrote:On the website they claim that this sound set is compatible with the Mach V.

Re: First Call Horns Big fish Audio
The information is there under the link provided on the page under description highlighted in blue and to the left click on the word compatibility. I suspect that the product is encrypted and no real compatibility is possible.bayswater wrote:I can't see a claim about Mach 5 on the site.

Re: First Call Horns Big fish Audio
Reading the description, they seem to be relying on the information provided with Mach 5 on compatibility. So it may be readable by Mach 5. I've had some success reading EXS24 files. But you really ought to contact them and ask if they've actually tested it.ronjams wrote:The information is there under the link provided on the page under description highlighted in blue and to the left click on the word compatibility.

Re: First Call Horns Big fish Audio
I recently bought Session Horns from NI (for Kontakt). Somewhat limited in terms of flexibility, but pretty good overall for $99. Not sure if it needs the full version of Kontakt or if it can just use the player.
Cheers,

…string theory says that all subatomic particles of the universe are nothing but musical notes. A, B-flat, C-sharp, correspond to electrons, neutrinos, quarks, and what have you. Therefore, physics is nothing but the laws of harmony of these strings. Chemistry is nothing but the melodies we can play on these strings. The universe is a symphony of strings and the mind of God… it is cosmic music resonating through 11 dimensional hyperspace.

Re: First Call Horns Big fish Audio
After contacting Big Fish Audio and motu and a follow up call again with Big Fish Audio the deal is to purchase the Gigasampler edition of the First Call Horns. The Mach V will read this library. I've personally tested this out today after receiving the DVD ROM in the mail.I will call them later today and report back to this list.
