What are the differences between Acoustic Legends HD and Acou6tics?

Acoustic Legends HD is a great entry level acoustic guitar VI, and boasts a huge 20 GB library of sounds.  It has chord bank and chromatically-sampled single-note patches.  We sampled nylon, steel, and twelve sting guitars, and there is an included bonus folder featuring sampled banjo, acoustic bass, and more.

Acou6tics is built in Kontakt 5, and is a much deeper, more powerful instrument.  Each instrument can play single notes and user-selected chords, with a wide array of keyswitch articulations available (as well as intelligent hammer-ons, pull-offs, finger buzz, etc. in legato mode).  In addition to nylon, steel, and twelve sting guitars that Acoustic Legends HD offers, Acou6tics also has full uke, mandolin, and guitalele patches included.  Acou6tics is the best way to harness a full performance guitar.
