would u recommend saving your sounds to an external drive and also the song sessions as well, so both saved to the same external drive while recording w logic pro x.

Quite nice. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Crowhill Company is doing a lot of crazy Good things 🤘Great Video! Thank you also for the quick Ample Bass P mention 😁 I'm sure you would have a blast with our following Monster - Ample Bass TR6. Let me know - Jason (have a great Weekend!)

the big band brass from orchestral tools were a life saver for my free brass😅 One mention is the eight horn ensemble and brass bursts from free orchestra 1

And you missed the best one. Solo Legato Trumpet from Musical Sampling.

Norrland solo trumpet should definitely be on this list.

They no longer have a monthly price option. The way it’s worded is weird if you’re not careful I thought I was going to pay $16 but $199 came off my card for a year plan. They have no phone customer service only email. I had the monthly plan before but couldn’t login so I attempted it with a new email. They are actually still trying to charge for monthly even though they say it doesn’t exist anymore. It’s criminal.

Nice roundup. Thanks for making and posting.

i was waiting for a long time for this video. Thank god the wait has been defeated.

Very cinematic! Some sounds createt little movie scenes in my brain. The sound will also be very usable in dark gengres like gotik or gore and of course in ambient music.

This was pretty amazing. I just subscribed, and I hope that by following your weekly free samples, I'll run across something I can use -- especially samplers for saxophone, flute, violin or harmonica. I've done a lot of recording and mixing over the last twenty years, but mostly for my own vocals and acoustic guitar. You could randomly click a few places on the following video clip to get an idea of my current sound and accompanying technical limitations. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZ7OZad6Yrp5hsU Anyway, sampling will be a new experience and new learning curve for me, and I hope you won't mind if I ask a couple of newbie questions. 1. Is there a way to generate tones by pressing different keys on a computer keyboard as opposed to connecting the type of musical keyboard shown in your video clip? (I can try to connect my 1980's Casio keyboard as an input device, but I'm not all that optimistic about whether that will work.) 2. I've had a very catchy original tune running through my head since last summer, and I'd really like to use it as an opening theme song for a creative project I'm pitching. I'm wondering if it would make more sense to just do a bare-bones recording of the melody and percussion and then enlist the aid of a sampling expert to turn it into something a lot more polished and flashy. Thanks for reading this note. I realize it might take time for you to respond. - Dean Lesner

Define Konakt “Full”?!?! 😂 Would this brass instrument be free and accessible with any kind of paid kontakt bundle or does full refer to the biggest, most expensive option? I am actively looking for these answers myself, not just expecting someone tell me everything but it’s not that straight forward for my autistic brain to piece together! 😂 I write music with someone in my studio now I’m unfit to work. We record stuff to a pretty high standard and it always seems a shame to add a brass idea that sounds like it came off a school keyboard back in the 90s! We’re realising that these instrument packs all have their strengths and weaknesses and some packs only offer clusters of instruments playing as ensembles rather than solo, which means you can be paying serious money to tool yourself up with decent VI options. You have to know what it is you’re looking for to avoid tail-chasing. In our case, we’re seeking solo instruments that provide nuance of articulation and control so we can layer up a small number of “real players”, simulating like people coming in and doing little overrun lines without it sounding distractingly unrealistic.

Only with Full Kontakt ..; schiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttt

Is there a way to set each articulation as a new track in the arrange window within one kontakt instrument like yours in this video??

I build and play koras. They sound much better, couldn't match these demo sounds to a real kora.

It's free and also sounds like the only synth I'll ever need

A bit resource-hungry plugin (depending on the instrument), but worth trying. Since buying an Arturia MiniFuse 1 audio interface, I have the Intro version of this plugin with 500 sounds. There are also free sound packs in the store. During the Christmas sale, I managed to buy the V Collection, which drastically expands the possibilities, giving you over 10,000 patches and the ability to edit them on a specific instrument.

Another very good free product.

Do you really think stock daw strings are on the same level as free version of BBC SO?

1:48 Incredible playing style! You really bring the sounds to life.

Damn I missed it

It's quite small. I would not pay more than 29 bucks for a library like it.

OH MY what SILK and Milk warmth

Cinematic Alpha has released some libraries for Soundbox. I have Floating Ensamble. It means Soundbox works really well even with third party libraries. Much better than Kontakt in my opinion. So simple, so fast.

Wow...that track is beyond cheesy...no wonder "it's so easy"

Fantastica melodía y un bosque maravilloso, me da paz e intriga . Gracias por tu musica

You're a Life saver!!!

Hi there - nice video and piece. I got this library, I love it. A question though - what's up with the timbre slider? Everyone I have seen has to use their mouse, including Rob in the Westwood showcases, which seems a bit strange, no? Do you happen to know if they are going to implement a CC to this or am I missing something? I also found that when using Low Strings, playing a G flat while changing the timbre with my mouse seemed to destroy the sample kinda, started bugging out. Anyway keep up the great work.

articulation dosn't work on bbcso ?

Thank you for this ! Some other nice free samples there as well. Best Wishes - John

Always excellent work and presentation. Much appreciated.

*Heavy-OSS-i-Tee

thank you bro , more free plugins 👏🏼🫶🏼❤️

Can't wait for the OT Berlin Free Orchestra in 2025!

I'm watching this since the 2024 Annual Bundle that's on sale while I watch this. I already bought Petrichor, Homestead Piano and Moonlight Celeste last year. But well... I can upgrade and get € 200 of the normal price of the other four libaries. Tempting offer.

thanks so much for making this video and introducing me to this plugin! I'm in love with the hang drum sound and I can't wait to use it in my tracks!

Free! I feel ham-strung having paid an arm and leg for Swam

I wonder if this is better than the Fluffy Audio Spaghetti Western.

Can you do different tunings or create your own

This is super comparison! May I ask you which mics did you use with the BBC? Thanks a lot. Cause I liked the dry edges in solo string but the room in BBC was something as well. I am wondering if there would be option to go closer then you went in BBC, it would be amazing,for me at least :-) Thanks again

Thanks so much!

They sound great

I make reggae and ska music. What I’m looking for are great free horns sections that aren’t Kontakt libraries. The ones I have in Logic Pro are very good, but variety is the spice of life, innit? 😊

Sonuscore's The Orchestra: Elements should get a mention as a very good alternative to BBCSO(D). Tokyo Scoring Strings Freebie, but I don't like it much. The Free Orchestra 1&2 from Project Sam.

The hardest part of getting great free libraries is _finding them,_ so thank you! Awesome rundown of diverse articulations and textures.

Do you use this on top of VSTs like EastWest Hollywood orchestra?

Totally free, No strings attached?

Thanks for the great rundown. One you didn’t mention is “soft string spurs” by Dan Keen on Pianobook.

I already have 6 of these, all from your recommendations. I'll be checking out the rest. I rarely comment but just had to this time as your channel is one of my absolute favourites. Your honesty regarding the products and calm presentation style is an absolute god send when so many other channels try to out do each other with in your face graphics or loud music that most of the time assault my senses into skipping through what they have to say. I hope your channel continues to grow because you most certainly deserve it.

Nice rundown. Thanks!
