The ARIA interface is nice, and it seems like you would be able to use their other libraries right from the same interface which is plus as well.

The pricing keeps a quality orchestra library within the reach of anyone from pro to hobbyist, without sacrificing sound quality. I give this instrument 4.5 out of 5 subs, it’s really a useful library. The fact that the instruments load as fast as they do is also a huge plus. The sounds “fit” in a lot better than some of my larger libraries, so I find myself going to it more in most production settings. So while many larger libraries are aimed at film and media users, GPO4 seems to be aimed at anyone who wants a realistic orchestral library, from film to pop music. The sounds definitely have a realistic feel to them, and I’ve had many who tell me some of the larger libraries sound almost too “perfect” for use in their productions. I thought the solo violins were pretty good and definitely on-par with some of the dedicated solo string libraries I’ve come across in terms of initial sound and tone.įor many, this may be all the orchestra you need. While the GPO brass on it’s own has a great sound, the addition of some addition brass instruments from Project SAM gives you another level of sound and feel to add to your projects. I like how they give you different individual players in the sections so that when building your own ensembles you get a realistic sound. That said, all 3 of these categories are very useful in GPO4, and with the addition of the ambiance/reverb effect engine you can really dial in the sound you’re looking for. I know these aren’t the only sounds in the orchestra, but if these sounds aren’t useful then an orchestral library fails in my opinion. This library has plenty of articulation and real time control build in using midi cc, sustain pedals, and key switching.įor me a great orchestral library has to have good sounding strings, solo and section, as well as some nice brass and woodwinds. Sure some of the larger libraries offer a little more in terms of various forms of articulation instruments, etc, but that comes with a cost of size and loading time. I’ve had the opportunity to play with and use multiple orchestral libraries, some of the largest ones around, some that cost a pretty penny, but I wasn’t even the slightest bit let down when playing this library. The installation does not pose a particular problem: there are three DVD copy on the hard drive is everything. This is really all that matters and to my ears this orchestra delivers. 4 user reviews on Garritan Personal Orchestra.

It let’s you build your own ensembles as well as has some preset ensembles for quick creation. It includes every major instrument of an orchestra like brass, strings, percussion, keyboards, and woodwinds.
In short, this is a complete orchestral library that can easily run on your laptop/computer without bringing it to it’s knees. Garritan has been around for quite a while, I had some garritan libraries back in the akai sampler days, and it’s always been a huge bang for the buck.īeing able to deliver a complete orchestral library for a size and price that works for pretty much anyone, is a task in itself.
Now, we know there are tons of huge orchestral libraries available, but I have a feeling that many aren’t really looking for something that deep…or expensive. One of the questions I get asked, at least 1 or 2 times a week is “what instrument is good for strings and orchestral stuff?” Today I’m checking out another product from
