Description: THE ORCHESTRA is a revolutionary all-in-one orchestral library with 80 musicians. The heart of the library is our breakthrough Ensemble-Engine, which allows you to transform your ideas into music. Simple and incredibly fast. And we’ve found a way to revolutionize the way you create complex orchestral music. This new simplicity, a more natural approach, allows one to cope with the multi-faceted orchestral nuances and rhythms.
The main idea of “THE ORCHESTRA”. With ORCHESTRA, Sonuscore embodies a simplified approach to orchestral composition, giving you both innovative tools for creating quick ensemble sketches with minimal effort and the ability to write complex orchestral arrangements. Sketch your orchestral canvas in free or detailed strokes, as you wish. Your ideas, your music – all in one instrument.
THE ENSEMBLE ENGINE – the core of the instrument. The ensemble engine works through a series of independent arpeggiators and velocity envelopes and is inspired by our Sonuscore Origins series. Create pulsating rhythms and even all kinds of combinations of any notes. It will work no matter what chord or note you play. A huge number of presets with minimal loading time gives you a complete ensemble palette. Independent arpeggiators and velocity envelopes create bright and powerful orchestral flourishes. Load up to 5 different instruments into independent slots and play them together. Each slot can be assigned one of five different modules. Choose from 150 presets in three categories. In this way, the different sections fit perfectly into one space. All major articulations are available, including realistic legato and round robins for short articulations.
Create faster with full instrument groups.
Orchestral Colors are combinations of instruments that can be played live on the keyboard.
Orchestral Rhythms – contains simple, repeatable patterns for individual orchestra sections that use our Ensemble Engine
Animated Orchestra goes even further and creates complex orchestrated rhythms from any note played. This is where the magic happens!
Full control over the entire ensemble. From the Engine tab, you can access all the individual controls for each of the five instrument modules. Short notes can be organized by arpeggiators, and long notes can be formed by velocity envelopes. Create orchestral flourishes as needed and make magic happen.
ARPEGGIATOR – Creates captivating melodic patterns to give your project a rich and lively orchestral feel. Change the arpeggiator pattern using a rhythmic step. You can change almost every parameter as needed to give you complete control of your orchestra
VELOCITY ENVELOPE – make your sound sustainable. This parameter adds repeated dynamic movement to a sustained note. The central element is the envelope shape, which can be freely drawn.
Play instruments easily. Create complete and detailed orchestrations from scratch. Bring your melodic ideas to life freely using individual patches. In addition to the ensemble instrument, ORCHESTRA also contains 88 individual patches for all standard sections and articulations of a symphony orchestra, including percussion and, as a bonus, choir.
Unleash orchestral power with ensemble multi-patches. Multi-patches further leverage the Ensemble engine for instant playback and sound as they load and duplicate multiple instances of an instrument. This is the easiest way to create complex orchestral arrangements. The game can play full orchestral multi-patches for single articulations, which works great for quick musical sketches. Orchestral Rhythm and Animated Orchestra Multis combine multiple instances of the Ensemble Engine to create even more complex patterns.
Samples: no polished sound. THE ORCHESTRA was recorded and mastered with the intention of sounding a little rougher and being more “honest” than the typical Hollywood orchestral sound. It offers an alternative and promises direct and powerful sounds, as well as a vibrant musical experience.
The instruments were recorded in Budapest at the famous Studio 22 in their traditional orchestral position and edited with great attention to detail.
