Wrote the following about projectSAM Orchestral Essentials 1
Leuk ding. Een "instant-orchestra"-achtig iets, om gelijk dat grote geluid te krijgen.
Voor mij te veel reverb in de opnames, weinig flexibiliteit en jammer dat er niet veel van die legato patches in zitten (dat is wat het realistisch doet klinken).
Voor mij toch liever iets als Vienna Instruments of Orchestral Tools.

Wrote the following about projectSAM Orchestral Essentials 1
Dit is nu eens een pakket waar je vrij eenvoudig een geweldig muziekstuk kan neerzetten.
En met eenvoudig wil ik niet zeggen dat het vanzelf gaat maar dat instrumenten in ensembles gegroepeerd zijn. Waar je volledige controle hebt over de klank en dynamiek van het orkest en waar je naar hartelust kunt schroeven aan diverse instrument-instellingen, als je dat zou willen.
Een bibliotheek samengesteld uit oa. Symphobia 1 and 2, True Strike 1, 2 en Orchestral Brass, geven mij nu de mogelijkheid als muzikant een orkest neer te zetten zoals ik dat in gedachten heb.
Van een klassiek stuk tot filmmuziek. Ik denk dat ik in de toekomst ook Orchestral Essentials 2 erbij koop als mooie aanvulling.
Eerst maar eens stoeien met deze versie.
En zoals gewend van Bax: goede prijs & snelle levering!
