Thanks Doctor, really appreciate the recommendation! Pre-orders are now sold out, but there will be a good intro discount when it’s released.

My pleasure Nicolaj. Happy that I was able to catch this during the pre-order phase. Can’t wait for it to release.

Intimate Viola Iremia has seen an official release and is now generally available.

It is also glorious.



Demo’s sound great too Nicolaj. You did an amazing job. I congratulate you and hope you’ll sell a ton of these.

Thanks Doc.

Here’s the website (and how about my new site design - now I just need to get the rest of page update too…)

And just so it’s clear, this will not be cheaper during Black Friday. In fact it won’t be this cheap again for a long time, the intro price really is a special one-off offer.

Demo’s sound great too Nicolaj. You did an amazing job. I congratulate you and hope you’ll sell a ton of these.

Unfortunately sales are rather slow and I can not figure out why. Pre-orders gave me hope, because I’ve honestly never sold anything that fast before and I do think it’s a very good and useable product at a no-brainer price. But maybe that’s why…everyone who would be interested in this preordered. I hope that’s not the case. Anyway, please spread the word

[doctoremmet]

Sorry to hear that. I can’t imagine there aren’t more interested potential buyers out there. Sometimes there are so many concurrent releases it seems people get distracted by all of it. I know I have been on occasion.

Keep at it. Maybe some well known composers with a bit of a following can do a demo track, or one of those DAWcast videos. I have no idea of course if such a thing would actually help drive sales. People like Martin Heidenreich, Chris (Implied Music) doing YT videos seem to have the kind of audience that would buy your new library?

[thesteelydane]

Oh I’m on it….and I still waiting for KVR to approve the announcement, that always creates a spike. What would really help would be to be mentioned by the big industry mags, but so far I have only managed to get Sound on Sound to even look at my stuff.

Samuel Davies has taken Iremia for a spin, and he quite likes it. In fairness, I sent Samuel a review copy, but I don't do affiliate links and had no further communication with him until he published the review, so I do believe it's a fair review, even if I am biased...

[thesteelydane]

Just a gentle reminder that intro price ends tomorrow December 10. The same goes for the Bunker Samples Black Friday sale with 50% off everything, and 10% extra discount when purchasing more than one product (Iremia excluded).

Here are a couple more really good reviews from Pete Calandra and SLR:
