Ark 3: The Jock
Ark 4: Eccentric Serial Killer
Ark 5: Teacher
The Ark 4 demo has so much Papers, Please vibes. It's amazing.
There is no one else on UA-cam who can bring sample libraries alive like Kevin Kuschel! Developers, take note! Get Kevin to give an overview of your new library, and watch your profits soar! Great job Kevin!
Thank you
You've done a huge reaserch and enormous work! Thank you very much, instant subscribe! 👏👏👏
The rhythm of the ARK4 demo is stuck in my head. It's cool that the male voice choir gives more interest!
Ark 4 demo was so much fun to write :D And very easy thanks to the full orchestra patches. I'm happy with the sound there.
This is such a great video. It's gonna be the first recommendation I will give someone when they ask me about the differences of the Ark series. I'm very impressed. The explanations of each Ark here are easy to understand and straight to the point, and the editing oh man, it's great. I also really like the fact how you included a great demo for each Ark, they are a very clear example to what they have to offer. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much, Ben! Spread the word! :D
After watching a few of your videos, I want to say I like how enthusiastic you are towards these libraries. Rarely do I see someone who has so much passion towards their art.
Thank you! :)
Your demo at 4:32 sound absolutely amazing, I would love to listen a full version of it!!!!
Thank you! :)
You're a great composer, and this is an excellent demonstration of these libraries. It's definitely helping me to make my decision!
Love the videos!
Thank you for this very clear and great video !
What a wonderful presentation of the Ark series - Thank you.
best review It's cool a clear example to what they have to offer. Keep up the great work!
great review Kevin, I own all 5 of them and just got excited again about using these amazing libraries lol thanks you, love you delivery and passion.
Great head to head review and explanation. No wonder I was within the first 100 subscribers. Now i also ring the bell. The ARK series in total cover pretty much everything orchestral. Awesome video.
Absolute superb presentation !!
Great job Kevin! Well explained, amazing editing as always and I really really love your demos, especially the one for Ark 5. Cheers!
Thank you :) Glad you like the music!
Thanks for the video, nice to see all libraries one after the other
I really really really love your channel. your presentation style is straight to the point, not wasting any of your viewer's time; and executed with quality and style. Something sorely missing in the creator space surrounding these topics. Thanks a lot!!!
Thank you for your awesome feedback :)
best review that I've ever seen! really appreciate it. keep going, bro 🙏
Thank you :)
Pretty nice review !
This is a very very great review! It is definitely the best sample review that I've ever watched in UA-cam (and I watched so many reviews). The explanation, video editing and the demo tracks are all well done and produced. I can totally see that a lot of effort was put it in this video. The only bad thing about this video is that it made me wants to empty my bank account and buy all of them haha Your channel totally deserves more views and channel! I have subscribed to your channel and will help to spread the word! Thank you!
Thank you so much for your feedback and support :)
damn what an amazing editing .
This is so cool!
thank you!
this video is CRMINALLY underrated. should have more than 100k at least
Thank you!
an awesome and truly unique take on the series Kevin! So cool to watch. Wished I had such a Nany on steroids as a kid. Would have been fun 😜
Thanks :)
Thanks this is super helpful seeing as this series is half off right now for Black Friday :D
Nice!
It's assive ! Great overview.
love the video my friend
Glad to hear! :)
Ark 4 is really empowering with its energetic rhythm 🥁 🤩
Nice review
Thank you! Cheers!
It seems that Ark 1, Ark 2 and Ark 4 are a great team to support my Albion One and Neo. Thank you.
Due to your review... I've decided to buy the whole bundle version.. U know, just in case i need one of them 😂🤘🏼 Also, theres a student discount which makes all the difference - Anyway, Thank you for the video explaning the difference between them❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Finally i get a massive extended orchestra library❤️❤️❤️
Lot's of music love
Max - Denmark
Hope it will treat you well! Now go write awesome music :)
I wish I could post a picture of a skeleton here to depict me waiting for the Ark 1 reverb tail to wind down....for the CLOSE mics!
Awesome video , thank You. May i ask how You make this type of eights note pattern in strings and woodwinds in demo of ark 5 ? This legato transitions sound really well here. is it som speciall pattern patch for this ?
That's a specific articulation called Chords minor in this case.
Great video but I still can't make my mind up on which one to purchase. I have BBCSO and Symphonic and a number of other libraries and I am tempted for Ark 5 as I love the sound and the fact it helps me also as per the comment below "teacher". I will continue to watch all the Videos and maybe one day make up my mind :)
could you please release the demo of the ark 4 somewhere?
Patch multi of ark 3 is insane 🤩
Ark 3 packs quite a punch
I have to buy Ark 3 one day, really want to try it out! 😀
As an avid use of ARK 1 and mostly insterested in clustered huge pieces its the only orquestral library i have and o Got no regrets
Glad to hear!
Can I find somewhere the building of Mom's favorite son 01:47 . I want so see the approach of Ark 1
Alright time to subscribe this channel
Thank you, absolutely!
I can't believe there is finally a sale now. Bye bye money!
This was a very nice breakdown and comparison of all five libraries, but I’m a bit surprised you did not include a demonstration of all five libraries playing together and showcasing how they can work together to complement each other.
Mate, I could listen to you say Flugel-horn all day
😏
@@KevinKuschel in a good way obviously! Your channel is great, thanks so much for the hard work and inspiration 👍
*_Ark 1 is pure Fortississimo (THE CHOIR). Ark 2 is atmosphere realm. Ark 3 is also Fortississimo but you must be "high-leveled" (Perfect for composing something discordant, lol, for the sake of the theme)._*
*_Not sure for 4 and 5. 4 sounds similar to 1. 5 is a tool of hope._*
*_I'm not even sure to save up for Ark 1 since I followed a fellow musician who uses Ark 1 too (I'm rivaled with Oceania 2 and Symphonic Choirs, or 8dio's other tools)._*
Kompakte aber informative Review mit wirklich großartigen Demostücken. Hast du Musik studiert oder bist du Autodidakt?
Danke dir, selbst angeeignet :)
@@KevinKuschel Irre. Gibts da empfehlenswerte Lernmethoden oder ist es einfach ein angeborenes gutes Gehör? Mit der Komposition für tonale Instrumente tu ich mich seit Jahren ziemlich schwer, und obwohl mein Gestümper trotzdem total Spaß macht ist so ne wahrgenommene Talentlosigkeit doch dezent frustrierend :/
How would you compare the choirs in Ark 1 and Ark 5? Just different effects?
Ark 1: Legato with Aahs, sustains, marcatos, some glissandi. Overall sounds a bit more far away.
Ark 5: Legato with syllables, sustains, pad-like sustains, crescendos (long/medium/short), rips, glissandi and shepard tones. Overall sounds a little bit closer to me but not sure? Ark 5 also has a third mixed choir patch (male + female).
Ark 5 will do better at supportive textures and swells than 1. Though the legato can also go quite loud.
Check the product page -> Instruments for both Ark 1 and 5, they have demos for each patch. Hope this helps!
@@KevinKuschel I’ve had the entire Ark 1 several years, got the Ark 5 combined choir last month . Thanks for your observations!
Wow.. What a comparative video.... Especially at this BLACK FRIDAY This comes like A God's Guidance 😇...
ORCHESTRAL TOOLS SHOULD MAKE THIS AN OFFICIAL VIDEO FOR THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE BUNDLE.....
THANKS ....
Now I now what ech ARK does Precisely
Thank you! Hope I'll be able to do this for more series and developers in the future.
I forgot I wasnt watching HBO
are those your demos?
yes
Metropolis 1 vs Jaeger, which is more "epic" (!) ? :-)
Ark 1is more "organic epic", Jaeger more "modern processed epic".
@@KevinKuschel Awesome. btw have you tried the UVI Orchestral Suite? Just wondered how to compares
Metropolis is perfect if you can't orchestrate however you will sound like the rest of the guys who can't orchestrate.
...and you can make it sound quite beautiful if you have some arranging skills.
Wow, what a poor take.
@@thisislance Yeah some take pride in looking others from above and making others look bad for compensating their own lack of confidence and instead of focusing on their weekneses, they prefer spitting on others to feel better. Oh well... This is like the statement that says: Opinions are like covid, it's not because you have one that you need to give it to others! 🤣
@@studioonetutorials ...yes but what has that got to do with his point?
@@mistral-unizion-musicIf you didn't study orchestration then I understand your point. "Composers" don't want to put in the years of hard study and when someone makes a (tough) valid statement you try to ridicule it. "Can't argue with a fool coz onlookers can't tell the difference and beat you with experience" applies here
Dont like ark5 at all. Messy
Sir, you got yourself a new subscriber. Thank you for this video!
Thanks! :) Glad it was helpful to you
