New World Builder?

[Duilio]

Hi to all EWQL guys of this forum. I've recently purchased EWQL Symphonic Choir with the Summer Promotion (Buy One Get One Free). I study carefully the great Nick Phoenix SC video tutorials...but...my World Builder is extremely simpler than the video is! I explain better: in the video you see that you have to set up some parameters, in MY worlbuilder I choose a Multis Patch, turn on World Builder and voilà! The Choir sing! No Midi setup, no voice selection, nothing. Other thing: I type a phrase in English and it is immediately translated in Phonetics/Votox and playable! Perhaps the new box of SC contains update version of World Builder? I'm happy, not disappointed :-) but I'd like to ubderstand if there are the problems I've read about Worldbuilder (Cubase 5.x compatibility issues, MIDI notes fall, ect.). Thanks to you all and thanks EW for its incredible products! (I've obtained my SD2 copy with the promotion - SD2 is F A N T A S T I C ! ! !)

they integrated wordbuilder into the interface in version 3 of Play. before that we used to use it the way Nick mentioned in the videos..

never had a problem with Play or EW ever. the best purchase i've ever made. .

And don't forget to download Piotr's Stormdrum Performance pack from the forum . . it makes SD2 even more awesome

I think SC and the new Wordbuilder are highly underrated. It's an invaluable tool for any cimematic composer, and very simple to use. I've tried choir libraries from competitors, but they just don't sound as realistic.

Glad to see some positive reviews for a change! I have been using EW stuff for a long time, and can confidently say that I haven't experienced the onging issues mentioned in other threads (clicks/pops, etc). I'm sure that there are thousands of satisfied users out there, versus the handful of those having bad luck. It's like that with any type of software unfortunately!

Hi! Thanks for your replies...yes all EW products ae AWESOME, I use at 90% of my little productions. For prevent pops & clicks and have more RAM (up to 3.5 GIGS usable) I bought yesterday jBrigde...for €15 has trasformed my way pf play and compose! Great stability, more power, lots of RAM and PLAY FLIES!!!
Worldbuilder is simply fantastic amd the samples are realistic...I'm a very happy & proud customer!
