Adding KotaktII-CubaseSX Where instruments?

[drde]

I am trying to add virtual instruments to my recording techniques. I bought Cubase SX3 and KontaktII and some pianos (i.e. white grand) which sound very good.

Where do I find good instrument collections for this combination which don't cost thousands of dollars? Any suggestions?

thanks

(I imagine I am displaying my ignorance here but any help would be greatly appreciated).

Hi David
If you visit www.bestservice.de (http://www.bestservice.de/index.asp/en/860012a84p218p21p94) and browse the products there I think you will get a pretty good overview. You have the option of only displaying products available in Kontakt2 format down to the left - here's a direct link (http://www.bestservice.de/group.asp/en/kontakt_ni/860012a84p218p21p94) for your convenience. You can also select mac/PC there for a broader selection of virtual instruments.

Best,
Nils

Have you tried some of the instruments that were included with Kontakt 2? Many are very good.
