Great, high-quality sounds - a real pleasure to use in any DAW.
Really love this collection of amazing instruments.
Spitfire Audio is so resource intensive, and it crashes all the time. Horrible software engineering quality. Do not use.
I am an electronic composer. For 30 years I have created sound and vision studio pieces. I do not see studio orchestral music as a replacement for orchestra, but as a massive addition. I was a member of the electronic music organisation EMAS in the 1980's and, back then, the 'it sounds like strings' mentality began. Still, although the sounds are good, none of it sounds like orchestra to me. The very nature of the two musical approaches being very different. In terms of use in my own practice, the two big things that put me off are the attempts at articulation and the reverbs that crowd the aural space. I understand that studio orchestra is useful for film, TV and game scores, but that is for commercial not artistic reasons. I believe that there is great potential for new expressions in studio composition, but not all of it needs to sound like Star Wars.
Brass instruments sound too midi
Great Cinematic Strings and Sound.
I have some issues with the strings dynamics, but the brass, the woodpipes, and percussion is awesome
👍👍👍 very nice
Wonderfully good.
I am still learning.
I really like this plugin. It has some very good sounds and it’s cool that you can get it for free.
Easy to use and the sounds are great
it' a very useful product, easy to use and install.
Excellent library, the orchestra sounds great
excellent resource for beginning composers
Good sounds and useful in my DAW and music
Just excellent... In every way... I'm using it for the first time and floored at the sonic and articulation realism from my MIDI track. Thank you for making these instruments available. It makes me feel like I have a full orchestra whenever needed.
I couldn't get it to work but Nico sent me a video showing exactly what to do. It's great and very easy to use in Garageband. Thanks!
Sounds amazing!
