Permission to use this to make a vocal cover-over?
I wish Performance Samples made a Pacific Viola that ways to fill in the gap
I just commented on an older video you did and found this after. It's nice to see some of my suggestions have already been covered here along with some others I didn't know about. Thanks for the tips!
More freebies (at least when I downloaded them): ProjectSAM Big Cat Sketching Orchestra The Alpine Project Impact Soundworks Shreddage Klang Bodega Strings Pocket Blackus Cello Rast Oud String Strezov Duduk, Jade Ethnic Orchestra, Taiko Wavelet Audio Cold Sul Ponticello Waves Factory Clock, Music Box SFZ Meatbass
During the Summer Sale - going on while I wrote this - you can buy it again for € 199. Or better yet buy it with Nordic Spheres and pay even les: € 279 for both. That's € 139,50 for each, right?
Well done. Very nice!!!!
You need to ditch LABs from the list, they've made the plugin spectacularly ugly and actually unusable in an effort to push their low value subscription offering. I've lost a lot of respect for them. I was just about to throw down my cold hard cash on SSO, but I'm now reconsidering...
super Video Kevin ! Hast du deine Ziele erreicht :D ? Wie sehr hat dich die Mentorship bei Alex Pfeiffer weitergebracht ? Dein Content ist super inspirierend !
Very nice overview. Thank you! Is there a limitation using Areia Lite with Kontakt Player instead of the full version of Kontakt?
No limitation.
@@KevinKuschel Good to know. Thanks a lot!
Hi Kevin, First of all, I want to thank you for your great video and the information you shared. Regarding free orchestras, I'm very perplexed about all these nice orchestral libraries that, in my opinion, have great demos but are not suitable for their intended target of students or beginners who are just starting to compose for orchestras. The only exception is the BBC Symphony Orchestra Discover, but honestly, the sound quality is too poor with only one round-robin. Besides, almost all other libraries are just special combos or ensembles, which I find totally unusable for composing coherent orchestral pieces. By the way, this is nothing against your excellent dissemination work. I proposed to the SoundPaint guys that they create something to fill this market gap: a library similar to the BBC free orchestra but with decent sounds and 2-4 articulations per instrument (e.g., legato, long, short). This could be the "correct" approach, and while it may not be free, I think this library could cost less than $50 and still be a success. What do you think about it? BTW do you listened the free Sonuscore Orchestra Elements? Thanks, Giorgio
you just had to play rains of castamere 🥲
The Ducks made my day xD
great video ... what other orchestra vst just like this do you reccomend that can basically click one key and it creates arpreggios and patterns instantly?
No love for Spitfire Symphony Orchestra ?😢
Thank you very much from a guitar player in Brazil
Great review!
Bless you man!
Eastwest is definitely more than B. One of the best qualities so far.
The Demo you did is so good!
This libraris for full version or player version?
Watch the video, it's on the screen when I talk about the specific library :) Some are for Player, some are for Full.
@@KevinKuschel This question is personal and a choice between the two But which is better and easier? i just asked to download one of this cuz i have some problems with my version All i want one of this versions, one version have alot of libraris and the way library add easier i hope u help me to choise between them
Bought this because it’s right up my alley and I love tommee’s work and I’m super happy with it so far
Was deciding between a couple trailer drum libraries and went with this. Very happy w/ my purchase!
Time to update, cuz The Orchestra Elements just dropped! What a great time to be alive as a starting composer.
I prefer my strikeforce 2. Better than strikeforce 1 and damage 2. It's used in iron man, star wars, and game of thrones just to name a few.
I wish we had more of these reviews!!! It's very descriptive, to-the-point, and it sounds super sick!!
Excellent review, no nonsense and really useful presentation 🥳 (got this right away when it was launched)
Sounds dope! Great review! We'll see if it's in the cards for me to get my hands on it before the deal ends. :)
Would you do a ranking of the Best Brass VSTs, AU, Etc? I hear alot of talk about the strings, and the flutes. The Brass Section is one that is the most difficult to replicate the most in alot of genres, these include The Blues, Big Band Jazz, Pop, Funk, and Film Scoring aswell. all of those genres that requires alot of exciting sounding rhythm and articulation. the thing that I worry about when I look at these pieces of software is A.) is Hearing the quality of sounds, how close are they to their real counterparts. B.) and more importantly do they sound good when you don't apply any processing right out of the box, because in alot of the freebies I've tried including the full kontakt ones, have this inability to sound convincing in any other genere other than Film Orchestral music, and Soft Jazz. When I try to do bombastic fun sounding music like the Naked Gun Theme for Example they don't sound all that great, and still sounded like they belong in a Low Budget TV show, and it's a pain to have them sound right too.
Nothing but big thanks, Kevin for looking at these libraries from different angles! I'm not in need of a percussion library right now but the ease of use, flexibility, and readiness of the sounds here's very compelling! TPP is an awesome hybrid instrument!
Thank you for reviewing this!
Leaving out Orchestral Tools is insane - they have a free string vst that easily matches CSS (I own both)
Which one?
Hey Kevin, awesome review, do you know which Kontakt 7 minimum version is required to use this? Thank you
No sorry. Just that it requires Kontakt 7.
Oh, ok, I’m waiting for a response from Cinematic Tools, thank you anyway
@@KevinKuschelthey don’t specify…
I want to buy the most epic orchestral libraries possible. Which libraries will give the most epic sound, regardless of whether they are cheap or expensive? My thoughts: Brass-Cinebrass Pro,Talos Strings-Afflatus Chapter I Strings Choir-Freyja Choir, Chorus Woodwinds-Cinematc Studio Woodwinds Synth-Omnisphere Percussion- Maybe Metropolis ark 3 or CinePerc If my goal is to make epic music, is there anyone more useful than these? I'm waiting for your suggestions)
Ark 1 and 3 are definitely there, especially for organic epicness. Check out Keepforest Devastator and Ferrum for hybrid/processed epicness, also perhaps something like Areia for strings with a hyped sound. Trailer Brass could help as a specialist library for the fat sound. With the right processing, you can make many orchestral libraries sound fat (multiband compression, saturation, distortion, EQ, etc.). So best to learn a bit how to get an epic sound, then you are more flexible.
@@KevinKuschel Thank you for the answer, I will definitely look into your suggestions, but are these additions to what I said or do you suggest I change my choices with these?
@@zetlok Additions! Your picks are solid. I wouldn't say that Afflatus Strings is "particularly" epic. It covers many styles due to its thematic approach.
@@KevinKuschel Thank you so much for helping)
Any questions? Lemme know, happy to help!
You've recommended Heavyocity's Damage 2 in the past as another great percussion tool for cinematic compositions. I was wondering, how would you compare the two? Which one do you think is better in a general sense, and which niche do you think each one covers in your opinion? I'm looking at getting an orchestral percussion library, and I place great value on your opinions, so I'm really curious as to what you think. Thanks! ^^
@@SnadMusic Damage 2 has more content, covers both loud-epic and quiet/soft/organic. It's a generalist that's amazing, but it's also 2x the price. Tommee Profitt Percussion is a specialist for hyped, epic cinematic percussion and it does it's job very well. It's more niche than Damage 2. Both are great!
@@KevinKuschel Thank you for the insightful reply! If I may, I have one last question. How well does Damage 2 cover specifically hybrid or trailer-esq sounds relative to Tommee Profitt's Percussion pack? If I get Damage 2 will it give me excellent coverage over both classical and hybrid mediums or is it recommended that I eventually get something else to fill the gap of hybrid sounds--something like the percussion pack featured in this video. Thanks again for the reply, and sorry if this question is rather long-winded; I such at brevity. :/
@@SnadMusic Damage 2 has a lot of hybrid stuff and it's great. It often sounds sort of "industrial" with their signature "scrapyard" style, and it's quite recognizable. Tommee Profitt Percussion has nice and tight epic drums that are already layered. And I prefer the cymbals workfow. Damage has more content overall, a lot of it is not specifically hybrid. Damage is more expensive, and has stuff like solo drums, and lots of drums that TPP doesn't have. I'd recommend you check walkthroughs and reviews for both to make your own opinion :)
@@KevinKuschel Thank you so much. You're quickly becoming one of my favourite musicians on this platform. I wish you a good day, and I appreciate the time you have spent to inform me! ^^
Some epic percussion libraries have this sound issue that its not being able to be used and only for specific things really good to have this all round percussion library that is also able to be used on trailer music !
Performance samples <3 I know this is not a free orchestral sample library but I would like to mention ETI ROADS, a real sounding Rhodes Mark II
This Library Sound So real But what I don't Like is the Latency of it .. I did All adjustments but No hope it still don't play when I touch the key... I tested it at my Friend's Studio and That was the Only Problem I hope this Version Make a solution for that problem
Latency is normal and necessary for sample libraries with legato (connection between notes). You will see this in strings, brass, woodwinds libraries... and also Atlantis 3. You'll need to set your DAW's negative track delay to the value that's displayed on the patch, then it'll be on time for the playback. For Live playing, you'll need to compensate it by playing a bit "in advance", which is a typical characteristic of legato sample libraries.
@@KevinKuschel I tested another Libraries Similar to this one but there is No Latency this Library is not easy to sync it to daw it only work with Slow Free Music not with Drums and Quantize . I hope they See this Problem And Solve it .
oh my god this channel is a GEM. thank you <3
Thank YOU!
@@KevinKuschel I am more amazed by your content with each passing second. I got very interested in orchestral music after playing Genshin Impact and then Nier, and since then composing orchestral has been my favorite hobby. Finding your channel is the best thing that could have happened to me recently.
I've noticed, that if you're also interested in Pacific Brass and don't have Pacific Solo Strings yet, you may want to check out the loyalty offerings very closely. In my case (I have Vista), the loyalty intro price for the brass is $149, but with the solo strings it would only be $89. Pick Pacific Solo Strings for $79 during loyalty intro and then Pacific Brass with the new code. Your total price for these both would be $168, compared to $149 for only one of them.
"So far" until the next NFR comes along LOL It fseems like every new library you receive becomes "your favorite so far". Meh. At least you're transparent about it, which I appreciate.
Both Chroma Grand and Chroma Upright have been my primary go-to pianos since their releases, for grand and upright pianos respectively. You’ll see, for example, that I’ve been recommending Chroma Grand on my Discord for 2 years. I take your feedback serious, though.
Question -- in your opinion @Kevin -- if Gravity 1 is on sale for like $189 -- would that be a better choice for a hobby composer? Or instead purchase Heavycity's Mosaic Leads ($120-ish) and/or Sonuscore's Horizon Leads ($99)?
Between Metropolis Ark and Cinematic Studio? Is any better than other, or they are booth great but sound different...just curious?
Much different, cinematic studio is a set orchestral section libraries (strings, brass, woodwinds) for general purposes, metropolis ark is a multi-part all-in-one orchestra, more focused on instrument combinations, and a huge, organic sound.
@@KevinKuschel Thank you !If you have to choose one or other ?
The Blueprints series is really good!
You've done a huge reaserch and enormous work! Thank you very much, instant subscribe! 👏👏👏
Is it possible to use any of these in Fl Studio Mobile
These are mostly Kontakt sample libraries. As far as I know, FL Studio Mobile doesn’t run Kontakt.
Replaced Imperfect Sampling’s Fazioli Grand as my new favorite.
Chroma Grand is my favorite (and I’ve tried a LOT). I only have The Grandeur and Bechstein next to it.
Thank you Bro 💯
