Looked under the hood in Mach5 and low and behold this is a stripped down lite version. Comparing the suitcase it just did not sound as real even after turning down the over the top clanks and dirt. But I have the original Neo Soul Keys without the the 3x and it is superior baring the UVI 505 chorus and spring reverb. Yes it sounds good with some tweaks and use of the effects. Must say I am also disappointed in this library. I agree they sound a bit fake and over the top by default. You can turn it down like the other effects. You may have found already those are the effects of the "dirty" knob. The way it's reads to me, is if you are a NSK3x Kontakt owner, you would have to buy the DYNO and EXP5 expansion packs separately, to equal what UVI 5x.
