Obtaining "Goliath" library for Structure?

[Eric Lambert]

We bought four copies of "Goliath - Structure Edition" back when Avid first released it. Since then we've installed new machines and Goliath didn't make the transition. Back then, the installation was a set of CDs, which we can no longer find.

Does anyone know where we can find installers for Goliath content? We still have the iLok assets for the library, it's just the sample content we need.

Wondering if you have Pro Tools on Windows at work - or are you Pro Tools on Mac only?

Mac only.

I think EW's Goliath is a different product. Even if instruments are the same, my iLok asset is for the Avid version.

And yes this would have been better situated in the Virtual Instruments subforum

That does make it sound as though EW's and Avid's are the same. The original was definitely 10 discs. I wonder if my Avid-based iLok asset would allow me to use the EW library.
