The story
I’ve been using quite of few of the Pianobook samples recently. I was interested in recording some samples for Winter Voices. So, on the eve of Thanksgiving, I hunkered down in my recording studio to record some Ahhs. I layered 3 copies of my voice, run through multiple instances of Supermassive, each set to different reverb models. Each voice was recorded using a Rode NT2 large capsule microphone through a Joe Meek VC6Q preamp. I think these samples sound best in the lower registers. I enjoyed this choir so much I made an EXS24 instrument from it.

Slightly harsh for my taste...
Maybe I'm spoiled by Eric Whitacre, but I generally prefer a softer and smoother sound for choir and synth choir libraries. With a little tone adjustment and eq-ing I was able to get it to where I liked the sound. The GUI has some nice controls, but not much that can significantly change the sound of the instrument. Otherwise it's very well recorded and put together. Great work!
A limited airy vocal pad
If you are familar with Exhale by Output, this is something similar which is a great achievement in my opinion. It has this airy vocal quality to it that might be good to some electronic music, but the sound is very barebones, so it is up to you to find a way to tweak it. This kind of instruments would greatly benefit from ADSR controls, but that doesn't mean it is not fun to play by any means. This is also another instrument that features Kontakt support but it's not indicated in the thumbnail.
Decent but limited.
I like the sounds, especially given anything resembling Pet Shop Boys style music. Recorded pretty well, and no major sound issues through the octaves.
A great paddy sound
I like the sound and its great for ambient beds, but its a bit limited in terms of what you can do with it.
A little digital for me
I prefer warmer softer more organic sounding choir libraries. This one has a digital edge that im personally not into but other might really like this about it. I immediately thought of IDM music when i heard this sound. It would be good to have more controllability on the GUI, especially for attack and release. This is very reminiscent of early digital sampling which im personally just really not into but i know others really like this sound so if that sounds like something you're into i would definitely they this out.
