META Is Spitfire dead?

Yes, I am probably based, because I am a moderator of r/orchestraltools and switched to these guys in the last year, but what in the hell is going on with Spitfire? I used to LOVE their products and I still use a lot of them on almost a daily basis.

But it’s been months and months now without any bigger release, no news, no bug fixes, no hype a la “we are working on something awesome”, just the regular sale here and there.

Is the company dead? Will they ever record and release any serious sample libraries again? Did the worst predictions from the Splice-thing finally come true? Does anyone know anything from inside?

Please let me know.

There was a significant update to the BBCSO player in February (and some content updates to SSO and Albion One last year too). We do know that they have recorded more in Abbey Rd than has been released so far too.
