Thank you for that list. Unfortunately, with such an abysmal bad forum software like this one on yamayasynth.com, it will probably fall "under the radar" sooner or later. Yamaha should really reconsider their choice of forum platform. It doesn't get worse than this.

Man that is an impressive list. The only one I bought is the MONTAGE "FM-Xperience" (Easy Sounds), you missed that one :). I do think I am gonna take a look at the 3 libs for the 1152 performances.... just to spend the weekend seeing what I can find. I am saving list this off for a rainy day..

The 3 libs at link 52 are awesome. First of all they are all single part, but most have many different layered and split parts. For a quick single part to add to a performance these can't be beat for efficiency. Some of them just sound great, I especially like the lead synths and the piano variations. I can use many of these so I am keeping them loaded... so I had a dilemma which one of my 9 libs to delete. Sorry Chick.... but I gotcha backed up.;)

This should be added to the list:

Gerrit Bosman has released three Performance Sets.

For info email: gerbo1958@concepts.nl

(He has walkthrough demos of each set on youtube.)

Gerrit's work was included here:

Moessieurs:
(...)
... many more - navigate through the site

There are many other sets available there - the site is difficult to navigate for capturing all the links of every submission. I wish there was an index page of all the sets instead of having to click on each individually.

I've added to the list to call out Gerrit B. by name with link.

For some reason I knew you'd complain about my add. I did search the list for "gerbo" and "Gerrit" but nothing came up. Well, at least I tried to be helpful.

(The Unofficial Yamaha MONTAGE Community Forum (sadly very under-utilized) uses proper forum software and is well organized but also incomplete when it comes to identifying sounds available).

I'm really baffled why Yamaha is using this terrible web forum software. I have to log in every.single.time. Pathetic.

BM would have to answer (over and over again) far fewer questions with well organized, up-to-date, and and complete reference section.

I thought DCP's Complete Orchestra was the only available third-party Montage/XF/XS orchestral library. Jason also listed Garritan Personal Orchestra (GPO), but I couldn't find a Garritan Montage/XF/XS-specific GPO library for sale anywhere.

No complaints - I'm happy for users to contribute. When I find things that are not optimal, I'll point them out. I was venting more about trying to cut/paste from another website more than anything. I was also pointing out there was more to explore on Moessieurs. Joel completed fleshing out the links - so that is appreciated as well. Your email information for Gerrit is great since it gives users something to search for to locate the videos.

The forum software is what it is (Yamaha does not seem keen on a revamp). I think it lets down new users who are looking for an easy way to answer their questions. Not that difficult for BM or others to do a search on a search engine and "dig up" responses to the same question and link back to a previous answer. Plus BM has the benefit of using the "Learn" section for tutorials to cover topics more in depth. We will, from time-to-time, see a tutorial inspired directly from a forum question. ... the "learn" section could also be better indexed and organized for new users.

My YouTube channel provides a 30-minute sampling of select piano samples from various packs and from the Yamaha MONTAGE itself.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLTcNMjqSXgt8yyQqhr1r1w

This allows people to more easily compare the sounds side-by-side and should be a useful resource for making a decision on sound packs.
I can add more as I get them or by request.
