I was just made aware of another Kontakt developer - Wide Blue Sound. They have two sample libraries released thus far: Orbit and Eclipse. On October 15th they are releasing some incredible looking products:
Skylab: A controller that runs on your tablet to control Orbit and Eclipse - uses Liine's Lemur app
Apex: An expansion pack for Orbit
Aeterna: An expansion pack for Eclipse

I don't know about you, but this has me very excited. Orbit and Eclipse sound like incredible Kontakt libraries for making very intricate ambient music and soundscapes. Skylab looks to be a very innovative controller that as far as i'm concerned is truly a first of its kind. For anyone who likes to get away from the computer a bit while sound designing or needs to perform live with software instruments, this will be an invaluable tool. Take a look at the interface:

SKYPAD now comes included with every purchase of ORBIT and ECLIPSE — priced at $199.00 USD and $149.00 USD, respectively, and available directly from Wide Blue Sound (https://widebluesound.com).

APEX and AETERNA are available at an attractive introductory promo price of $29.00 USD each — $39.00 USD each, thereafter — from Wide Blue Sound (https://widebluesound.com), where audio demos can also be heard.
