For a long time I have wanted a big sample library filled with exotic drum and instrument sounds a la Future Sound Of London. Ethno looks nice but is so expensive. Maybe an idea for Christmas.

It is, but it's the least expensive of those three! Another point in its favor. Fortunately, I just sold some stuff and I have a GC coupon, so it will cost me next to nothing out of pocket. FWIW it does require iLok, in case that's an issue for you should you decide to get it.

I'd love to buy the MOTU Ethno. These MP3 samples sound fantastic:

This product is next on my wish list

Apparently it ships with the iLok pre-authorized, so that should be no problem as I have a few USB ports left.

You know, screw it, I am going to buy this. I think it will be worth it for all these new sounds. I'll have to quit buying new music for a while to make up for this, though.

Yeah, that's one thing I really like about MOTU. I bought BPM a while ago (since sold it) and was expecting to authorize it on an iLok that I already had - I was pretty surprised to open the box and find the pre-authorized dongle!

Let us know how it is before we take the leap

I ordered it through Sweetwater and chose free shipping. No idea how long that normally takes.

They ship UPS, which is pretty slow IME and IIRC they specify 7-10 days, but I usually get it within 5-6 days, depending on which day it ships.

I'm about 90% positive that I'm going to head over to GC on my lunch break and pick it up as well. Hmmmm....if all three of us have it....collab!!!
