Not great value for the money spent
Giuliano D. 13.03.2023
Having quite a few of Eduardo's libraries, this is one I regret buying.
There are not a lot of instruments and the ENGINE plugin acts in a weird way with some instruments with this library only, for example the note just cuts off when using a bowed instrument at random times, I have reached out to Best Service but have not received any usable help.
There seems to be a lot of work put into the soundscapes (where the reverb seems to go all in to cover the dullness) but voices and instruments are extremely limited. The percussion is okay, but most percussion is split up into multiple versions of the same instrument where a lot only have 4 to 10 keys assigned at most, these could just as well be combined into 1 instrument which then leaves you with a very unsatisfying percussion library.

Overall, it feels like it is a rushed and incomplete library that was quickly put together to jump on the "Vikings" bandwagon.

Grosse déception
Strat-7 06.12.2020
Le son est top et on construit rapidement des morceaux. On a, mais c'est un avis subjectif, vite fait le tour des instruments vraiment intéressants.
Là où ça blesse surtout, c'est sur le plugin VST. Dépassé, facile mais pas très ergonomique, il consomme beaucoup de ressources et ne s'intègre pas bien dans toutes les DAW.

De plus, vous découvrez sur le site de Best Service, lorsque vous enregistrez votre produit, que vous n'êtes pas propriétaire d'une copie mais bien locataire. Après trois activations, bye bye Dark Era, il faut repasser à la caisse.
Bref, je suis très déçu et ne le recommande absolument pas.

Super library mit ein paar Mängeln
Thomas Z. 557 28.04.2021
An sich bin ich mit Dark Era zufrieden. Die Library ist sehr umfangreich, einige Samples sind aber in abgeänderter Form doppelt bis fünffach vorhanden. Negativ aufgefallen ist mir, dass die Wiedergabe von längeren Aufnahmen (2 min. +) der gleichen Note manchmal einfach mittendrin aufhört. Spiele ich verschiedene Noten, passiert das nicht.
Manchmal kommt es auch zu Störgeräuschen während der Wiedergabe, als ob mein Rechner völlig ausgelastet wäre. Das passiert allerdings nicht bei jedem Song.
Abgesehen davon, ein richtig guter Sampler. Den Preis finde ich allerdings etwas zu teuer, 200€ fände ich da eher angemessen.

Epique
Mad_Martigan 27.12.2019
Tout simplement monstrueux (dans le bon sens du terme). La qualité des samples est impressionnante, les possibilités d'articulations encore plus, et l'ensemble est relativement facile d'utilisation. Même la reverb intégrée est excellente! (ce qui est assez rare pour le noter)
J'ai eu la chance de profiter d'une promotion à 150€, mais cette bibliothèque vaut tout à fait son prix vu le travail fourni et la qualité du résultat. Eduardo Tarilonte et son équipe prouvent une fois de plus leur expertise et leur passion pour les instruments anciens.
Attention, le risque de vouloir sortir sa hache et de hurler à la lune est réel!
