IK Multimedia Miroslav Philharmonik at a Glance:
  • Premium-quality orchestral and choral samples from legendary series
  • Phenomenal choir sounds for use in any musical setting
  • Included playback engine with editing features

Premium-quality orchestral and choral samples from legendary series
The sounds in the Miroslav Philharmonik are the result of an intense and uncompromising process of playing and recording and many, many hours of editing. Each instrument was played in a variety of ways in the studio and the symphonic hall itself to achieve the spatial positioning of a true symphonic experience. With the Miroslav Philharmonik you have your own classical orchestra and chorus!

Phenomenal choir sounds for use in any musical setting
Miroslav Philharmonik's choirs feature gorgeous multisampled male and female choirs designed for large-scale choral settings. The vocal talent is immense, hailing from the rich classical traditions of Eastern Europe. 16 men and 16 women were recorded separately and together as a mixed chorus at the Rudolfinum Dvorak Concert Hall in Prague, with some additional recordings captured in a smaller setting nearby. The recording quality is superb. Miroslav enlisted the talents of the best engineers using fabulous mics and converters to create clear, smooth and quiet recordings.

Included playback engine with editing features
Miroslav Philharmonik includes a high-quality playback engine based on SampleTank 2, IK Multimedia's flagship software. You can use this as a VST, RTAS, DXi or AU plug-in with your host application. Or if you prefer, load the Miroslav Philharmonik set into your full version of SampleTank. Either way you have access to a variety of editing functions, including SampleTank's STRETCH feature and pitch-shift and time-shift capabilities.

Works with DP 8 64 bit in standalone mode

I love Miroslav Philharmonik for quick sketching orchestrations, and being user friendly.

Miroslav Philharmonik

I was an original purchaser of the Miroslav Vitous Sample Library many years ago. In the years since then, I have bought just about all the other libraries. I return time and time again to the Miros... read more [+]lav library for sweet sounding orchestral sounds. It says something when you are sitting on about $8,000 worth of sounds and you always go back to a $200 library. I do not agree that you always get what you pay for. Some of the other libraries beat MP in certain instances, but many are thin sounding and harsh. This is a wonderful library and diligent work with it can produce amazing results. Most importantly, for a beginner, this library is by far your best bet. close [-]

Sweetwater Advice

Yuval Fuchs
WOW - I have not played and heard strings this expressive before! The realism is stunning in this refined virtual instrument and the ease of use - second to none. This is now my first choice for orchestral sounds and quite possibly my favorite. Even sounds in the "other" category such as acoustic pianos and classical guitars are breathtaking.
Tony Dayton
Can't fit an orchestra, ensemble, or choir into your project studio? No problem! Miroslav Philharmonik makes them accessible from your DAW with amazing realism! Even better, its user interface is easy to learn and simple to operate while being absolutely powerful. One of my favorite features is the acoustic placement: All elements of the orchestra are right where they should be, without need for panning or effects. Beautiful!

Stay away if you use Cubase on 64-bit computers

by James from Boca Raton, Florida

Music Background: Composer; Musician
I had the pleasure of using this plugin for a year on my older 32-bit machine. Unfortunately, when I moved to a 64-bit computer, and installed Cubase 64-bit, the plug-in was no longer working. The bad... read more [+] news is that the company won't support me. There is no fix available and no timeline for resolution was set after weeks of discussion with their support team. So... consider for 32-bit platforms, but stay away for 64-bit using Cubase!!! It's unusable. close [-]
