ProjectSAM Orchestral Essentials at a Glance:
  • Best of the best

  • You're in good company with ProjectSAM

Best of the best
For Orchestral Essentials, ProjectSAM carefully selected just the right elements from each of their products, including the renowned Symphobia series, True Strike series, and Orchestral Brass Classic, and packaged them into an incredibly versatile, knockout package. Orchestral Essentials even includes exclusive instruments not found in any other ProjectSAM products!

Great-sounding samples
Orchestral Essentials sounds great. Brass, strings, and woodwinds were sampled in sections to capture the organic sound of orchestral instruments in a concert hall. ProjectSAM records various orchestrations (e.g., horns and trombones) to achieve the richness you hear in the samples. The results - well, they speak for themselves!

You're in good company with ProjectSAM

The Essentials

Music Background:
I've been using ProjectSAM Orchestral Essentials for a few weeks and it's great. It's very easy to use and has a number of features I've grown quite fond of. The samples are fantastic to begin with. E... read more [+]verything sounds huge and it makes a great compliment to any existing sound library. One of the nice features is a "round robin" setting, which plays each repeating note slightly different. This helps avoid the robotic effect you get with quickly repeating notes on a sample. Another good thing is the EQ settings that are unique for each instrument, which really helps clear things up when the mix starts sounding muddy. This is a well priced sample library because every instrument is great, there are no duds. My only complaint is that I wish there were more instruments, but that's what the Symphobia packages are for. close [-]
