I haven't updated my music instrument library in years, especially since newer official software doesn't play well with pirated plugins. The last time I downloaded VSTs was 2012ish, back when PB and KAT were still good sources. Music technology (and the instruments people like to listen to) have taken a huge leap since then. I do mostly pop and jazz, so I've got East West, Session Horns, Session Strings, Broadway Big Band, Kontact, and a couple miscellaneous Native Instruments plugins. Does anyone know of production level VST sources for newer versions of these or better software?

I typically either use Audionews or AudioZ. That has most things I’m looking for. Occasionally some random/obscure VSTs pops up in Rutracker. I use Kontakt for everything so keep in mind that it can be tricky to get libraries added to Kontakt these days depending on the version and OS you’re running.
