What a fantastic gift to the community for those, for whatever reason, that can't afford the tools.
Indeed, very generous!
Hi, Lee. Not surprised to find you here. And yes, this is a huge gift. Discover will be the first orchestral library I've been able to afford and fit on my laptop, which is all I currently have to work with for a DAW host. --Phil K
Value wise, really the only things close are East West composer cloud subscriptions. Affordable but its a subscription and if something like Covid kills your regular income you might just find yourself unable to afford the subscription. Theres also the Armadeus libraries and the Garriton stuff, but those really are mockup-only stuff and kinda fall apart with high complexity. I'll grant BBC discover isnt really much more than that either (No legatos! and very basic articulations), for the absolute beginner its an absolute winner. I ended up cancelling my composer cloud subscrtiption and forking out the $300 for the Core library to get those legatos and articulations and I'm *not* regretting it
I finally learned how to use a DAW yesterday, and now Discover is available. Best day ever!!!
Spitfire is such an inspiring company. Between the LABS series, their strings and brass packs and now this, there's just such a commitment to fostering creativity through accessible and professional beautifully designed functional tools and great sounding samples. Thanks so much!!
I’ve filled in the questionnaire as I’ve been furloughed, as soon as I’m back at work I’m going to pay for it. I bought Albion One and strongly believe that if you can afford something then you should pay for it. This offer from Spitfire is what offers some hope for humanity. Thank you folks!
I owe you an apology. A few days ago I was questioning how much you'd done with the opportunity of working with the BBC, today had simply blown me away, ambition, purpose, generosity, everything. Bravo Christian, Paul and everyone at Spitfire! You should be very proud.
Finally someone who understand us , as a turkish student even 50 dollars is around 400 turkish liras.
Thank you so much!
This is such a gift to the musical community. I just can't think of any other thing that could have such an impact in making orchestral composition so accessible. Many thanks Paul and Christian for your vision!
It is so real, and inspiring , I bought Core for myself this Christmas. Excellent introduction. To mis-quote my favourite Seasonal movie "Tell Santa he made me a Spitfire shopper. Any store that puts the parent ahead of the buck at Christmas deserves my business. I'm coming here for everything but toilet paper." Thank you Christian, Paul and the gang. Merry Christmas.
I'm in South Africa and at any time, a $ sign in front of anything elicits a wistful "Well, that would have been nice to have." The ZAR/$ exchange makes it almost impossible for us to be able to afford anything worthwhile if there's a $ involved (I nearly broke the bank buying the Spitfire libraries I own, but it was worth every cent, and they've paid for themselves long ago!) But right now, as a full time freelancer who like most of us has had the carpet pulled out from under us and there is almost no income, even $49 is equal to nearly R1000 (you read that right,) and that kind of money will keep a small family fed for a month, so priorities come first. In short, thank you for seeing the situation for what it is, guys, and making your incredible work available to those who right now simply cannot afford it. But trust me, when this is all over, work is back to normal (and we can once again also watch the Springboks beat England at Rugby,) I'll be buying the full Spitfire BBCSO!
Africa needs a single centralized currency. Don't think EURO either I mean the African equivalent of the USD.
you can get the $49 version for free btw
I know how you feel. Sometimes my clients act like the 50 dollar commissions I do isn't a serious job. But 50 dollars is more than a week worth of salary where I live. (brazil). Plus, some of my clients are from Arabia, South America, and Africa. So the 50 dollars THEY pay for my work isn't little either.
it may not be this much in india. but the situation for me is almost the same. it just amounts too much
This was my very first orchestral library I’ve ever owned… I actually still use it. It’s amazing. Thank you for this library. I waited the 2 weeks and it was stressful, I was dying to use it. Again, thank you.
I bought the full version before but I applaude to this move! Some years ago during my studies no way I was able to afford it.
What an incredible service you are doing for the composer community. Your excitement and passion is so contagious and matched by the quality of your instruments. Thank you!
Hey, thank you very much for this!
Right now the economy in my country isn't very well, so because of the currency exchange the BBCSO pro gets really expansive for me. This is the chance for me to continue to making music and still have high quality libraries at my disposal.
Once again, thank you
Wholly bananas! The simulated articulation is genius! Like... WOW! my mind is blown!
Absolutely elated : should receive mine in a week and a half !!
Thank you so much, you lovely lovely people
So Nobel prize for you guys then, just downloaded this and it is absolutely brilliant thank you
Just Like to say Thanks for all that you guys do, both LABs and this Library, a long with all your other stuff are all inspiring tools for creation,
My heart leapt out when this came to fruition. It will be my introduction to real sounding orchestral instruments. Thank you so much for making it available to us.
My sincerest thanks to Christian and Paul for putting this out there and making it available for those of us that flinch at spending a week's worth of lunches on a hobby. I'm nearly done with my first piece using the orchestra, and the instruments just sound amazing.
Received my download this morning. What a gift, thank you!
Bravo gentlemen. Your generosity and spirit of universal inclusion makes me very emotional. It is everything that we should be championing in the world today: borderless creativity. The lockdown has hit me hard so I've applied for the free Discover version. However things will be much better for me once restrictions ease and I have my sights firmly set on the Core. Be proud of what you've created guys, it is an example of the very best of humanity. ❤️
Got to be view 3,500, as though this release wasnt satisfying enough! Floored by this. Thank you all, SO glad to have been at the reveal in the Barbican.
Bless you guys. We are extremely lucky.
I'm a songwriter and just bought Discover {all I can afford}. I am amazed and thrilled by the quality ...... and just a sincere thank you ...... happy music making.
I have been in self-isolation the past month and I feel like I'm watching the first man on the moon on my screen, Thank you guys, FULL LOVE and Respect !!!!!!
Thank you for giving us for free.🙏 Because in my country 47 pound is equals to 4700 Rupees. Which is a whole lot of money..
Thank you so much. If this new passion of mine gets me to a good understanding of orchestral music i will definitely buy the core edition of this library in future anyhow.
Wow, this helps so much. - I would like to thank ALL the musicians orchestrators who played every instrument live so the rest of us can have this really nice gift.
Thank you.
I continue to be blow away by the whole spitfire ethos. You guys are wonderful. Not only the standard of the samples but the great humanity to both bring to the industry. I would actually be quite lonely if it were not for Chistians insane blogs and pauls 'mister mellow" walk throughs. I fully intend to buy the full version of the BBSO and probably Tundra, as soon as I get funded for a film I am working on. I recommend you guys to everyone. Many, many, thanks.
Just got my download today. Can't say thank you enough! It's brilliant!
Spitfire is incredible. What a great opportunity for people who are interested in orchestral writing but normally wouldn't be able to afford the sample libraries that have inspiring sounds. Love the layout too!
Great idea to have a Core version of BBC. Thanks guys for all you do. Cheers!
I was on the fence about BBCSO, but then this happened and I ended up purchasing pro. I love the idea of everyone being able to create music, no matter the price point. Thank you for your generosity at a time that we so need it.
I never comment YT videos but here I had too.
To start orchestral music, there is a huge barrier to entry. If you want something decent, you'll have to pay approx 1k which is not an option for most of beginners. What you've done is an unexpected and unprecedented opportunity to start with a "minimum viable product" and then invest in a Core or a Pro update. I really like your step by step approach and I really want to thank you, Paul and all the Spitfire audio team for the opportunity you're giving us.
I really wanna thank Spitfire for giving those who can’t afford expensive ones this amazing gift. I am thanking you guys with a heart full of joy. Thank you Spitfire, thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻
I can't wait to use this library. Thanks so much to Christian, Paul and the rest of the Spitfire team for making this amazing resource so accessible!
I am fortunate enough to live a few miles from Aldburgh and the awesome space at Snape Maltings that will always be linked with that unparalleled music educator and composer Benjamin Britten. I think he would be proud of this step to bring the instrument he loved, the orchestra, to everyone. Thank you for carrying his torch into the 21st century.
This is very generous and I'm truly thankful. You're one of the few companies that understands how difficult it is for musicians in the developing world to afford nice tools for making music. I've seen you mention your concern for people in poor countries in a few videos already and I truly thank you both for that and for the library. I don't know if you are a believer but you ARE doing God's work. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this! I received the free version a few days ago, as my income has been affected by COVID. The sounds produced by this plugin are nothing short of breath taking!! Once I get back on my feet, I plan to purchase additional tiers. Spitfire Audio .... you are truly a class act!
I love Discovery! I had to get it this very first day. Getting it down to such a small digital footprint is a miracle! Such a great and full sound across the board!
This has made me cry this is Amazing!
Absolutely brilliant... gorgeous interface as well !
Very cool, I’m an early adopter of BBCSO from late last year, and now with Discover I’m getting my friends to finally try it out :)
Thank you, thank you so much, I have my copy today and it will open up so much for me as I never been able to understand orchestration and having only a pension to live on this is a life saver for me and will change my life. So appreciated
Amazing! You guys keep getting better 👏🏻
Spitfire Audio and these two guys in particular, have just made things very difficult for other sample libraries.
Thanks the the BBCSO update guys....
thank you so much for this fantastic library sir!
Thank you so much for this incredible gift. This would help us all to stay creative and to inspire a lot of people. Thanks to all the people who worked hard to make this happen.
Many thanks for this, Spitfire. Amazing!!
Thanks for a great sample library. I've ordered BBCSO Core and was very satisfied with its sound. As I started to learn orchestration, this library (and the combination of Core & Discover) really fits me.
Christian and Paul thank you for this generous gift!
Cheers to everyone at Spitfire! Timing couldn't have been better. No better cure for cabin fever than getting deep and writing the stuff you've always wanted to write. No excuses and nothing but time. Legends!
Man, you guys did an awesome job. I bought 'Discover' yesterday to have a look around, totally beautiful and inspiring from the first note!
Wow!! What you’ve done to make this accessible is so amazing! I am SO PROUD to be a spitfire sample user.
Thanks you for having prices and this affordable for everyone or free definetly going to support when i have a break.
Guys thankyou for making it free, of course if i had the the money i would pay but i dont have a job right now and (49 dollars) 37,000 rs is two months salary in India if u are just starting out.
Hey Christian! This is incredible, I'm very keen to pickup the Core version. You're, Paul and everyone at spitfire's contribution to music is seismic from where I'm sitting. Thanks for all this!
Bravo gang - purchased straight away. This is an incredible tool for composers across all stages of their journeys - brilliant for young (and not so young!) minds to learn and experiment with how an orchestra works.
This is so incredible. I got mine today. I can’t express how much I appreciate being able to have access to this software. The pro version and even the core version is completely out of my reach but discover is great
This was a fantastic idea! I picked up Discover today and it sounds Amazing! Definitely moving up to pro once I get comfortable with what I have now!!! Bravo Spitfire team!!!
Thank you so much for this Paul and Christian. I mistook this as more of a teaser library to the full symphony and applied for the free version. I should just go and pay for it instead, my apologies.
I forwarded the link to a friend in Benin who recently found the most fiery passion for music from being gifted an old Technics midi keyboard. I couldn't even describe the excitement by the idea of receiving Discover in a couple of weeks - now this is who the free version is for!
Thank you so much for making this possible even for someone on a €100 monthly income.
Thank you for making this.
And holy crap that mode switching thing! That sounds like an enormous amount of work (and I, like Christian, would not have believed it if it were described to me). Congratulations!!!
I happily paid for the Discover version. Perfect timing. I just discovered Cubase and had created some orchestral guitar backing. I felt it sounded "fine" but "a little synthy". Enter BBCSO Discover. Lovely library and more important for me as a beginner, I can build up using it until I find I need something more (and you can bet it will be BBC Orchestra )
What a great company: Spitfire Audio! I shall check Discover and then I think I shall buy Core. Compared to other classical music libraries creators, it is so pleasant to see a company that is professional, but still not pretentious, with high quality samples, but still sounding so "musical". Thanks for that.
Fantastic addition to the BBCSO!
Thank you so so much. I live in Brazil and with conversions of US Dollar it would cost about R$280, which is about 28% of our minimum wage. Therefore its reeeeally expansive for me to pay and I cant thank you guys enough for having the possibility of getting it for free.
Love Labs and will use this with passion as well
Great stuff both. Discover is a great entry point for many and Core is a fantastic contender in the 'orchestra in a box' level of tools.
Great work. i will purchase and will promote free version to many of my students. Glad that you understand the value of FREE. Close to zero marginal cost is the future of education online
Thank you so very much for such an incredible product!! You guys are the best!!!!
Absolutely Beautiful!
Love seeing that 2 inch tape 24 track machine in the background!!
This is an incredible tool! Wow. Thank you.
So good. Well done and a wonderful gift to the music world.
Always wanted to try some sounds for my sketches/ideas before buying 1000$ software. Today you gave me this wonderful opportunity for only 50$.
Now I can finally try and have great sound for sketches/ideas. I think that I will buy "BBC SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA CORE" next time!
Thank you so much!!!!
You guys are amazing... I will be buying this.
Well done guys! I'll be getting Core. Thanks so much
I filled the survey . Eagerly waiting for the BBC orchestra discover
We've seen how different articulations are intelligently replaced/simulated when moving from Pro to Discover. But what happens, for example, if the user with the Pro version has a bass flute in the project? What will the Discover user hear?
This is a fantastic library. Love playing with it. But, I would like to have a walkthrough regarding the template you and JJ have put together. There is so much prepared with groups and settings. That would be great. Thanks!
Thank you and the team for your ongoing generosity and support, it is very much appreciated. I cannot understand the amount of 👎 on this post
dude- I LOVE YOU
Ahhh. A beautiful Studer A827. Wish I never sold mine. I might buy another if I can find tape.
This is such a game changer that I can’t believe it’s real
Strong flex with the Coles 4038. Someone tell Paul to do another update on the studio build. It looks incredible!
thank you for this, can't wait to experiment and play with this
Great staff Spitfire audio.
Great job guys!
Thank you!
Loving all of this....👍
The ABC Australian Broadcasting Commission is also known as Aunty and yes we only had 2 channels when I grew up.
Hi Christian, I was amazed at the close to 3-hour long session of 'Fly to the Wall'. I need the scores to follow it. Pls let me know where I can download them.
Lads. Just legendary.
...Spitfire Audiotastic....!!!
My god the mode switching is revolutionary
Thank you, thank you.
Brilliant
Great tutorial
I was lucky enough to get the free version it's sound great.
What a great product Christian! Bought & Downloaded Core already, love it! Any chance on doing a Cubase template?
