Ableton Live - Sampled Instruments - EIC 2

The Essential Instrument Collection 2 is a multi-gigabyte library of meticulously sampled and selected instruments created in cooperation with SONiVOX and ChocolateAudio. The Essential Instrument Collection 2 offers a choice selection of acoustic and electric pianos, guitars, bass, drums, orchestral strings, brass, woodwinds and more. For Ableton Live (7+). More info: http://www.ableton.com/eic ........ NOTE: Apparently, this collection is incomplete. So far, it seems that there's probably a 'Drums.alp' missing from the set. If you happen to have it, please inform and make it available. Included packages: Brass.alp Choir.alp EIC-LE.alp GrandPiano.alp Guitars.alp Keys.alp Percussion.alp Strings.alp Woodwinds.alp (w/ Ableton patch pre-applied) I'd also suggest using an Ableton Live release by AiR, which bypasses the need for a product key (as i don't have one, myself).

Hi, please, more seeders, thank you for this good stuff!!!!!!

drone07 (2008-08-10)

It'll probably take a few days for new seeders to start becoming available. Apparently, having an 8mb/sec connection only entitles me to ~30kb/sec uploads.

grimmwerks (2008-09-01)

Great. Can't unrar it at all.
Anyone?

grimmwerks (2008-09-02)

Can anyone unrar?

Barenjagr (2008-09-02)

My download will be done tomorrow but I will let you know then if I have any trouble with unraring..
drone, thanks for the torrent, I can't wait to get my hands on this.
Any other Live Packs besides the drum machine?
If you had or could point me in the direction of the Orchestral Instrument Collection, I would kiss your lips.

Barenjagr (2008-09-02)

Unrared fine. Installed fine. Sounds amazing.

Barenjagr (2008-09-03)

One problem... I don't think that it is complete.. on the ableton site - www ableton com/eic .. it shows 2 drum kits, acoustic drums and linndrum, which seem to be missing from this.. if you could check your ableton instruments to see if you have these installed, and if you do, put them up, I would greatly appreciate it.. I was looking forward to finally have a REAL sounding kit to use.

grimmwerks (2008-09-04)

what'd you use to unrar?

grimmwerks (2008-09-04)

Great - unrar'd!
Guess I put them in the library folder?

pbtargetpractice (2008-09-04)

yeah, I think you just drag and drop it into the library.
I downloaded it fine but when I opened it, the only thing that shows up is the Woodwinds.alp
whats going on?

pbtargetpractice (2008-09-04)

nevermind, I opened it with a different program and they're all there.

grimmwerks (2008-09-04)

I've been clicking to install - but then when I select them in the devices it says the preset can't be loaded --
is this for -- dammit - Live 7. Mac guy here.

Barenjagr (2008-09-04)

I don't know if these will work for mac, as I am using windows.. to install you just double click on them after the unrar..it will install to the library and then you can delete the .alp files.
drone, if you could comment on my question about the drums I would appreciate it. If ANYONE can show me a Session Drums torrent, I'll give them a kidney, or my first born child.

Barenjagr (2008-09-04)

I'll be more clear on the install.
Unrar them to any folder.
Double click on each .alp file to install the packages. It will install them to your library automatically.
Then you can delete the unrared .alp files.. you dont need them to use the instruments.

TJB25 (2008-09-19)

I'm having problems and i would really like to download this. It keeps telling me that the file exceeds filesystem limit. Any help?

TJB25 (2008-09-20)

Nevermind. Dl'ed to local hard drive rather than external. All good. Thanks

drone07 (2008-09-23)

Sorry for the neglect, Barenjagr.
What i've included is all i have, unfortunately. I got the files myself, just as they are (although i did apply the patch to the Woodwinds.alp). So, yeah, i don't have those drums either..
I've been looking for the Orchestral Instrument Collection myself.. i wish i did have it. Every pack i manage to get myself, i do make available thru here though. They all seem to be fairly difficult to come by, so, i've been trying to remedy that.
And these should work perfectly fine for the Mac version, as well.

pbyford (2008-10-09)

if anyone has 100% please can they seed for a while. no one in the current swarm has 100%, and multiple users are at 98.6% complete. we only need about 10mb to complete.

piratedmoney (2008-11-11)

If linndrums the only instrument thats missing then who cares, its available on the drum machines package and it's not that great sounding anyways. I'm looking forward to trying out their grand piano kit, sounds AMAZING =) THANKS DRONE07 I WILL SEED FOREVER, (when I get it).

yuuzaana (2009-01-26)

thanks for sharing, drone07!
anyone, is there anywhere to dl the other ableton instrument packs, ie. session drums and the 4 full orchestral packs? or are there any good alternatives to recommend?

jimmay (2009-02-20)

hey drone07, thanks for sharing this. :)

driver76 (2009-02-25)

Why bother with this. Ableton seem to go out of their way to provide shit libraries. I guess thats because the company are all in to nerdy bleepy shite music. Then again because they sold out an dont listen to their users who buy their software of which I was one from version 1 to 6 then I gave up on them and will only ever use cracks of their software they totally deserve to be cracked over and over.
I look forward to the firs crack of version 8 cause I wouldn't buy it for its minuscule updates...bunch of fucking chancers.
Are you listening Ableton???
Listen to your long term users or they end up coming here. YOu got over a grand off me...Ive paid my dues fuckers!!

Gport (2009-03-09)

something is wrong with this. although it's over 7 gigs only 2.6 gigs worth of crap pops out when unzipped. brass and woodwinds. total waste of the two weeks it took to get this file.

thomas01010 (2009-03-31)

Help!
downloaded and installed into Ableton fine (eventually, after a whole week!),
but when i go to double click on the presets they do NOT load and it says down the bottom, highlighted in orange, "The preset cannot be loaded. It is probably broken."
Please help. How do i fix this???

Schwipecom (2009-07-16)

Hey, does anyone know if this will work of newer versions, 8.0.4? If anyone has done so it'd be good to verify that before i dl. thanks.

musashi1584 (2009-08-26)

Cmon people. All we need is this "Drums.alp" file. Anyone?

Pie-Rate (2011-01-12)

Can anyone tell me how to unrar this? Some of you had the same problem but solved it somehow?

Foxxix (2011-02-13)

Thanks for sharing this!!! Now only need the orchestral instruments and will close the collection!!! :-)
