My pleasure. Be sure to check out The Free Orchestra update as well as the new Free Orchestra 2, that will add a new instrument each month. Thanks for watching.

[@micahthompson3762]

Thanks for covering this product. It was fun listening to you cover the options.

[@PraiseTracks]

My pleasure, Micah. The video covers an earlier version of the Free Orchestra. The new version brings a fresh approach to the GUI and it is a great step forward. Stay tuned for an updated video. Thanks so much for watching. Joyfully! 🎹

[@anattaevergreen]

Wild winds gave me wild goosebumps

[@Sanctuaryum]

That's great master

[@PraiseTracks]

So glad you enjoyed watching. Joyfully!🎹

[@matthewcolosus]

I downloaded the Project SAM last year - it sounds great. After hearing you play, I will have to revisit it again.

[@bruceboome]

I downloaded this yesterday. Thanks for an inspiring demo. Although as a guitarist I don't have your superb keyboard skills, I see great possibilities for this software.

[@PraiseTracks]

Bruce, it is my pleasure. Of course, this was an earlier version of The Free Orchestra. The newer version adds some very nice improvements and shows Project SAM continue to refine their approach which is very rich. Thanks so much for your kind support. Joyfully! 🎹

[@LightWingStudios]

Extraordinary and thank you Simeon! :)

[@PraiseTracks]

It is always such a pleasure. Thank you for the generous support and encouragement, it means so much.

[@petertremblay3725]

Great breakdown of the this fantastic product and i love the cantina you played in!

[@jeremiahlyleseditor437]

This is very useful. Slightly limits creativity but it can yield many things. Some of those Tutti hits remind me of that Alien film. Great find Simeon

[@PraiseTracks]

Thanks Jeremiah, more treasures on the way.

[@LightWingStudios]

Thanks!

[@EdKidgell]

Brilliant demo!

[@PraiseTracks]

Thanks Ed. Remember that this is an older video and they have since updated the Free Orchestra adding more workflow enhancements. Joyfully!

[@JoseVGavila]

I had it downloaded but had not played with it, so now I need to revisit it!. Thanks for the demo

[@inwex8350]

Been loving it since I discovered this on your live stream Friday! Always enjoy your videos!

[@lwinhtoophaw7839]

I've already have it thanks to you. It's a nice library.

[@HeronFly]

This sounds amazing! I’m grateful to have found out about this, thank you! I write very cinematic music in general but don’t have all those libraries from Spitfire Audio yet. I do have their BBCSO Discover and this will add to my pallet. You really played so well and I enjoyed this video very much! It’s going to be fun to see what Holiday deals everyone will have going. Thanks for what you do.

[@franciscoaragao5398]

Seus vídeos são ótimos. Eles dão vida aos vst. Obrigado.

[@dennisvandermeer8238]

I really like Project SAM. I own their Swing! and Swing! more libraries but have not taken a look at this library. I know it exists but just didn't have the time to explore it. Thanks for this video

[@Jan-S-Simonsen]

I've used this for a while now and it's amazing isn't it? Coupled with the BBCSO Free Library, there is a lot of quality to be had. Thanks Simeon - great video.

[@PraiseTracks]

Thanks Jan, yes I can imagine this paired with other orchestral libraries, the content they have given us here is stellar.

[@MrTugwit]

The Heroic Horns sound like the intro to Ben Hur :)

[@clydesight]

This is such a good walkthrough! I often watch you VERY closely, because I want to learn your keyboard technique as well. You are a great musician and player. I am a NOOB at this DAW/VST process. There is nothing in my past (except for pipe organs) that comes close to what these electronic things can do! The different library "patches" or "Banks" (i.e. Sordino Violins, Tutti) are like the individual stops on a pipe organ. And the "Mixer" feature in thee engine allows for more than one patch, just as pulling more stops on an organ allows for more tones. I am an elderly person as well. We had NOTHING like this in my youth. In my time, the most affordable electronic instrument for a NOOB was the Magnus Chord Organ! A true disappointment musically, and, boy did I ever dream of what these VSTs can do. I must have been ahead of my time! I used to go to movies to hear the soundtracks, and then would try to buy them on record. It is amazing to see all this opening up now, and a delight to be able to tinker with it as well. Now potentially, I can make my OWN soundtracks! It was YOUR videos that encouraged me to get into this (even at my age) and I am so glad I found your channel! Definite subscriber here! You have definitely saved me from the "Magnus Chord Organ" (eek!) So thank you so much for all the inspiring videos and keep 'em coming --- I've got a LOT to learn yet!

[@PraiseTracks]

Well, your mentioning the beloved Magnus organ takes me back to my first beginnings as I had one of the smaller brown ones that I would take to church and set it up near the wall close to the pianist and organist. I would plod away as I played along during the worship service. Fast forward and here we are. I pray you will co to use to find much joy and inspiration here as that is truly my goal in being here. BTW, Project SAM has made some amazing updates to this original library since this video as well as introducing The Free Orchestra 2 where they have been adding a new instrument to it each month. Take care and stay joyful!

[@troycopeland5156]

You make great videos very professional I just bought uvi ircam prepared piano over the weekend because of video of it along with world 2 I have all there libraries I was very hesitant of buying UVI Icram prepared piano Because I really didn't see or find a video that went in detail of what it sounded like such as your videos You always execute in detail and full detail to what the possibilities and what it is capable of Once again great job on your video content and success thank you

[@PraiseTracks]

Troy, thanks so much, I appreciate the kind words and support.

[@doyledonehoo9735]

Excellent playthrough as usual. A Kontakt tip: Instead of dragging and dropping instruments when you are going through a list in sequence, just use the right arrow next to the instrument title in Kontakt. Best of all, it does not keep asking you if you want to save your changes.

[@PraiseTracks]

Great tip Doyle, thank you so much. Also. Project SAM has updates this to an even easier to navigate collection. I really need to do an updated look. Thanks again for the kind support. Joyfully!🎹

[@RogersPhotographyOG]

Ohhh I'm excited! I just downloaded all the components and used my 30+ year old Yamaha PSR xxx as a controller. Now I'm not a trained musician but I love creating "soundtracks" for my fine art pieces (still & video) and this is gorgeous! I was using other online synths which were ok but this is so rich and luscious and I only tried it out for about 2 minutes. I'm a drummer but maybe this will spark me to actually learn piano (not just noodle around). 😁

[@Ezerman]

That choir sounds heavenly! My God!

[@PraiseTracks]

Yes, and even more heavenly is that they have been gracious to offer this FREE, which is amazing. Thanks so much for watching.

[@scotthamm3513]

Thank you for the wonderful video, love your energy and excitement. Quick question, how did you link the 2 instruments together (Sordino Strings & Felt Piano) in the last segment? I thought that sound was incredible. I also use Cakewalk but I can't figure it out. I am grateful for any tips you or your subscribers might offer. Many thanks.

[@PraiseTracks]

Scott, I am basically using the TRACK MIDI ECHO. I will see if I can record a quick vid to help illustrate. Stay Tuned! 📺

[@PraiseTracks]

Here is a short video showing you how to do it. Tha magic is in the INPUT ECHO state of the selected tracks. You can do this for as many tracks as you want, it is basically sending the MIDI being received on one of the tracks to the tracks where you have the Input Echo turned on so it can receive it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKSTg59qlsahkNU

[@PraiseTracks]

Scott, here is a little more detail from the Cakewalk documentation that explains this in more detail: www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=CakewalkSonar&language=3&help=Playback.35.html

[@thenorthstar311]

❤👍

[@genistgn853]

Not Spitfire but what a Crazy free library, I love the horns 😎

[@RodrigoTPHS]

🤯

[@nicomuziek]

Just to let you know............ There's a new version of the free orchestra with more possibilitys. Best regards

[@PraiseTracks]

Nico!!! That is amazing and so funny. I just completed doing the update in Native Access and right afterward, I see your comment! Thanks so much. I look forward to checking out the changes. Joyfully! 🎹

[@nicomuziek]

@@PraiseTracks Look forward to see and hear your opinion. :-)

[@apenrad]

nice video. Can you make a video with star wars themes? when you play this free library it sounds like a blockbuster soundtrack.

[@PraiseTracks]

Oh, that would be fun. Yes, for being a FREE package there are some amazing possibilities here. It also makes you hungry to experience their full orchestral libraries. Thanks for watching.

[@紅葉亀]

Hi Simeon I need your advice ⚠️ I’m hesitant between Symphobia 1&2 bundle or Lumina, I still got time until end of actual sales... anyway for orchestral stuff I’m more into Vienna, but Symphobia got great dystopian stuff I heard and Lumina some mysterious ways, both can be good for me .. the only stuff for Lumina is the interface looks a bit old but sounds maybe great, and Symphobia 1 will have an update followed by 2 I guess. If you got what I mentioned above which would you recommend me? Maybe when Symphobia will be out they will have a sale again as for true strike... even after actual BFsale 🤔

[@PraiseTracks]

I have not had the opportunity of playing their other titles but Project SAM has a wonderful reputation for their high quality. The way they are moving forward with updates and supporting their previous customers is a big win in my estimation. I will have to see if I can get on board with them. As always, if I find out any additional info, I will be sure to pass it on. Joyfully! 🎹

[@octavianlupashco235]

Дорогой Семеон...очень позновательный урок.столько нового.очень красиво. просьба...сделайте урок про ваше переферию.как увас почти нет задержка-извлечение звуков на миди и видео.как всё это подключено.какие программы...вы наверно поняли.если это возможно.спасибо.Удачи Вам.

[@rajkenso7230]

I totally forgot about this library ;_; Is it actually better in your opinion then BBCSO Discover in some places? Or is it just a SUPER COOL addition :D hehe

[@genistgn853]

Are so different, Spitfire's is a mf ENTIRE Orchestra with different dynamics (tremolo, Sustain, Short, pizzicato...) And was recorded in an auditory, so, the instruments are automatically panned like they sound in a real symphonic orchestra. Btw, Sam's Free Orchestra has some crazy sounds. JUST TAKE AND USE BOTH

[@rajkenso7230]

@@genistgn853 I will :3 thanks Genis

[@beckoning-chasm]

"Pandora is totally out of the box." LOL.

[@PraiseTracks]

Oh yes! I need to do an updated video on this collection as Project SAM recently released a major update to the Free Orchestra. Thanks so much for watching.

[@beckoning-chasm]

@@PraiseTracks Thank you. I made a snarky joke, but I'm downloading this as I type because of your amazing demonstration.

[@PraiseTracks]

No worries, I got it 😂 So one thing to make take note of is that the entire user experience has been updated for the updated version of The Free Orchestra, so it will not look like the version in the video. I really need to get on making that update. Enjoy, my friend and thanks for the kind followup and support. Joyfully!🎹

[@ronnyb5890]

i hear,like me,you're a devoted star wars fan Simeon,however,i hate the three sequels they made,they deconstructed the old characters in a bad way,Luke is a shell of what he was before,the way they killed of Han Solo,i know they must go forward,but they could have handled it differently,that Kylo Ren is a mere shadow of Darth Vader,i wont be adding these to my collection,i did'nt even watch the last one,that way i preserve (somewhat) the good feelings of the past 6 movies,with 3 (ep IV-V-VI) being marvelous,it's sad

[@balabuyew]

Let's say the truth: this is NOT an orchestra library AT ALL!
