A vast collection of exceptionally high-quality instruments
You can expect the usual QUANTUM LEAP exceptional quality in Goliath. Even if you own some of these instruments, you will love this collection. A good example is the Fender Rhodes.

Goliath is big

Music Background: Pro Musician
Top quality bread and butter samples. This package is like buying a Yamaha, Roland or Korg rompler for your computer. Good all around list of instruments. The only negative is no keyswitching in this ... read more [+]package. You will also need a ilok key. close [-]

guitar sounds are excellent (and I'm a guitarist)
orchestral sounds are lacking
but overall: good bang for the buck

Goliath

by PLUS from Earth
February 18, 2008
Music Background:
First Ill start with saying Goliath is pretty damn good. The quality of the instruments are top notch. They say Goliath was made to replace the keyboard. Well thats where I have to take issue with it.... read more [+] Although Goliath is a great sounding product, I think it lacks in quantity. Theres not alot of Synth patches. There could be some more Brass,Bass and Guitar options ( thats just my opinion). Also on some patches I get clicks when trying to play the notes together ( others are having the exact same issues). East West says its something they have to look into. On the flip side, you get some of the best sounding instruments in the game for a decent price. So if you have a keyboard dont through it away just yet because it more then likely has more options on it. But one things for sure you wont be reaching for it for a long time. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
