FREE High Quality Samples Libraries

Proteus VX is not bad, but only worked as a standalone for me. Doesn't work as a VST pluging within Windows 64-bit Sonar 8.5 I believe others also had the same problem.
 
Yeah the Emu soft sampler/rompler things are pretty awful. The sounds seem alright but the software itself is flakey and really poorly written.

It's sad that Emu started out making awesome modular synths or that rad sampler in Ferris Bueller and ended up as second rate, buggy software from Creative.

Emu samplers (as well as other hardware samplers like Akai) are literally killed by softsamplers. I remember those days...Emu samplers are one of the most powerful in the market.

Actually, Emu's software isn't too bad. Their Emulator X won awards. But too bad it cannot compete with Kontakt and developers coming up with their own engines. Even Gigastudio, the grandfather of softsamplers, died. How much better would Emu fare?

As for Proteux Vx, we can't complain - since it's free :).
