Are you finding the pitch problems in "Albion 1" ? (there are four packages)

Currently Sweetwater has Albion 1 for $229 USD.
You can buy Albion 1 for less, directly, through the end of September, 2015, unless I'm seriously misjudging the exchange rate.
They are advertising 149 british pounds which is 230 USD. Or did I miss some special deal?

Seriously considered this, but a couple things put me off:

1) I already have all the East West Hollywood products and all the 8dio Strings. 8dio has been great, especially the latest legato sardino strings. Love them... In fact, my EW libraries have become a backdrop behind 8dio when they get used at all!

2) I don't like that albion has all the instruments grouped already. It sounds amazing, but it isn't as flexible. I'm not sure how their BML products are, so I may look into that later

8dio is a great way to go in my opinion. They aren't easy to use, but they sound great.

Now, percussion on the other hand -- Spitfire's Hanz Zimmer collection sounds like a lot of fun to play with. That's next on my list...

I do agree , 8dio's Adagietto and Agitato has better sound and is more flexibel. I use them a lot. But i still think Albion has some good qualitys, the uniq cinematic sound and a lot of good stuff for a good price.
