OUT NOW - Originals Orchestra

[@lamardoss]

(Updated post) These were my first packs from Spitfire I owned outside of the LABS products. It helped me figure out what direction I wanted to go in and have since purchased Spitfire's Appassionata Strings (for the legatos), Eric Whitacre Choir (for a smoother sound verses the Originals Epic Choir), and just got the newer Albion Colossus (literally got last night and 2 hours to go on the download. will update this comment later with more about this comparing Colossus and this Original Epic series). Original Epic series verses Albion Colossus: So after using Albion Colossus for a while now, I wish I had gotten it sooner. There are much more detailed sounds in the plugin than the Originals Epic series. And the hairpins are fantastic. I don't regret getting the Original Epic series of plugins. But I feel a lot better about the Albion Colossus plugin and getting my money's worth verses when I purchased the Original Epic series of plugins. If you can hold on and go for an Albion or higher-end plugin later on, I suggest doing that. These Original Spitfire packs are great and made it easy to use, understand, and apply to my workflow. Good stuff and highly reccomended. Can you remake all these sounds on your own without Spitfire? Absolutely. Is this still worth it since these sounds can be reproduced on your own? Worth every penny. I look forward to buying more from Spitfire soon (Specifically looking into the newer Abbey Road series).

You are ready to go. Great tools.

[@shemhenry]

Damn was hoping to see a legato patch 😢

[@szihu]

Upvote, so that Spitfire hopefully takes this into consideration and provide an updated version with legato!

[@bryandavies6074]

Yeah, I've been hoping to see Taittinger in my local supermarket for the same price as their own label prosecco.

[@kirklandcole3808]

I have the Originals Orchestra, and the BBC Symphony Orchestra, and I have to say that while there are a lot of different VST's, plug ins, etc. Spitfire instruments are excellent. And another cool thing Spitfire has is where they teamed up with Output Arcade, and they have a line called Overture, and those instruments are awesome. Spitfire is on fire.

[@staccatopeony]

I saw a euphonium on the thumbnail and got excited for a moment :(

[@kendallbald]

I want Hans Zimmer horns

[@PeterSatera]

Agree! I'd love HZ Brass to accompany the strings.

[@Ryousake]

I own everything but the piani and the pads but also seeing how to USE the samples is such a great help! I don't fully understand everything but I look forward to digging in more!

[@saalasruokangas4206]

This has to be my favorite piece of music of these trailer clips! It's nice to get a breakdown of it, awesome job 👌

[@jukepatch]

This could be a good choice for students of music composition, due to the relatively low price for a complete orchestra and ease of use.

[@MoodScores7538]

Yes. Competing with Nucleus Lite I think. Great for students.

[@CalvinLee-u8d]

I had bought 3 including library, and it became a bundle several days later. Such an unlucky boy I am😇

[@younghandsfilms6135]

THIS IS SO INSPIRING! YOU GUYS ROCK!

[@marcotronic]

Awesome sound and range of instruments/articulations for such a low price!

[@MoodScores7538]

Sounds really good for $100

[@incrediblestepsProd]

Great overview - Thanks

[@S.Theodore]

When are you going to make an Originals harpsichord? I really need one, and most of them are made for Kontakt Full version...

[@dafingaz]

Already got them all. Except…Firewood 😊😊

[@anatomicallymodernhuman5175]

same. apart from the brass, they are mostly what I write with already. It annoys me that the brass only has octave patches

[@dafingaz]

@@anatomicallymodernhuman5175 Yeah. Don't tell Spitfire Audio, but I actually use some other brass libraries in combination with Epic Brass & Woodwinds. :)

[@nuenn]

Nice offer - but I'm not gonna buy anything from Spitfire until the "My Authorized Spitfire Plugin Does Not Make Sound on M1" - Issue isn't fixed. Kind of annoying to wait that long for a solution. Have you guys got any information, when this will be fixed?

[@LeeGee]

Looking for small, chamber woodwind, any ideas? Providing the session as a download is a great idea, btw.

[@MamaSymphonia]

Most woodwind libraries have soloists, that's about as small as you can get without sawing the instruments in half.

[@nikitapisek2901]

4:15!!!! What is the name of midi fader you are using, please? It looks awesome

[@maxssoundtracks3867]

Sorry if this is coming a bit late! it's the nanoKontrol2 by Korg

[@nikitapisek2901]

@@maxssoundtracks3867 thanks a lot!

[@ahsenmughal9675]

freaking amazing

[@edielayland8211]

I am running Mac OS 13 Ventura, Will the above Originals Orchestra work with Logic Pro 10.7.4 and Ventura?

[@fabriziofart]

What are using on the upper right hand side that helps you with expressions, dynamics? Thank you

[@НикаК-ъ4ф]

Korg nanocontrol

[@ErickPidux]

Hi. Can you show me how to connect the Korg Nanokontrol2 with the Spitfire to make the expressions and dynamics work? I'm using Logic Pro X on Catalina. Thank You!

[@jeffb1886]

I don't use LogicPro but I was never able to get my NK2 to work well with Spitfire. Too many add ons, glitches, etc. It was never stable for me. I sold it and went with Monogram Creative Console. Very intuitive, easy to set up and use. And no...I don't work for them or get some kind of commission for this. Just a happy user.

[@nesofearth]

righteous

[@anatomicallymodernhuman5175]

huh. Kinda disappointing. I already have all those except Firewood. And I have several pianos that would do just as well. That said, they certainly are good for sketching apart from the brass which has only octave patches. That really should be mentioned right up front. The brass has only octave patches which greatly limits what you can use it for. But repackaging things that have been available for ages feels like a bit lazy.

[@bryandavies6074]

I just loaded all three brass patches: in my DAW their extent is just over 4 octaves, on all three patches.

[@anatomicallymodernhuman5175]

@@bryandavies6074 Maybe I should have put it more clearly. When you play a single note, you hear it in octaves. It’s fairly common to write some brass parts in octaves. Say, bones and 2 horns play a triad, and trumpets and 2 horns play the same triad an octave higher. But it’s not suitable for general purposes. It’s not flexible enough to mock up just any brass parts.

[@miriaminna]

Thank you!!! ❤

[@dangeeestudios]

what if I had have some of the libraries already ? does it make sense to buy still?

[@stevem-h3562]

Thats one of the things Im wondering... but its getting to the point where it would be daft to ignore it and these extra sounds would be useful...

[@AndrewPRoberts]

It's heavily discounted, so it's actually a really good deal

[@atsuibeatz3523]

@@stevem-h3562 Its about a $10 discount for each instrument you don't own

[@stevem-h3562]

@@atsuibeatz3523 still chewing it over. I've got BBCSO but the free edition plus three of this package, so I do find them useful... but I'm wavering. I probably will get them as opposed to splashing out for the core BBCSO. The sounds are half decent, if not that flexible, but for what I do, they're perfectly adequate. And under £50 for it, I might as well.

[@ChristianSurieux]

One question : is this NKS ready ? Thanks.

[@TheStevenrobinson]

Nah they don't make kontakt libraries no more. Haven't for awhile. They use their own sampler now

[@sirmrs6952]

Where do these samples come from?? They’re not recording new samples for these, it’s obvious. So why don’t they mention which previous library they’re pulling these from??

[@MamaSymphonia]

This is a bundle of five existing products: Originals Epic Strings, Epic Brass and Woodwinds, Cinematic Percussion, Cinematic Pads and Firewood Piano.

[@equinoxstudio8205]

Demo too wet with reverb! 😢 would like to hear it drier. Still amazing stuff.

[@maksurdu9305]

Nah.... BBC discovery is the best 🙃
