The Orchestra from Best Service offers a multi-sampled, all-in-one, 80-player orchestral library with all basic articulations for every standard section of the symphonic orchestra. It features Sonuscore s Ensemble Engine, which provides a simple way to combine orchestral colors and quickly load playable combinations, ideal for sketching or layering. For complex arrangements, the software comes with single patches, which allow you to orchestrate your ideas in as much detail as you need.
Recorded in Budapest at the renowned Studio 22 with musicians in their traditional seating position, the Sonuscore team captured and processed each section to sound a little rougher and more honest than the common orchestral Hollywood sound. The Ensemble Engine allows you to load up to five independent instruments and play them together. It also offers 150 presets with arpeggiator and velocity-envelope effects that let you create pulsating rhythms without relying on prerecorded phrases.
Powered by the included Native Instruments Kontakt Player, this 6.85GB library comprises over 16,500 individual samples, affording you playable true legato and multiple round-robins for short articulations. The Orchestra is suitable for composers, sound designers, and live musicians and can be used in a variety of scenarios, including record productions, soundtracks, video-game compositions, theater, live music, and more.
