“The idea behind The Orchestra
Orchestral libraries have become more and more complex over the last years. Developers captured every nuance of symphonic orchestras in countless different articulations. But with a tight deadline, having endless possibilities is not necessarily a good thing.With this library, Sonuscore brings to life a simplistic approach to orchestral composition, giving you both innovative tools to create quick ensemble sketches with minimal effort or write complex orchestral arrangements in all detail.
Paint your orchestral canvas in as broad or as detailed strokes as you want.
Your ideas, your music ” all in one instrument.The core – The ensemble engine
The Ensemble Engine works through a number of independent arpeggiators and velocity envelopes, heavily inspired by our Sonuscore Origins-Series. Create pulsating rhythms and even inspiring full arrangements from any combination of notes. All of this without relying on prerecorded phrases ” you have the full control. It will work, no matter what chord or note you play.
With minimum loading times, a vast amount of presets provides you with full ensemble colors right out of the box.Independent arpeggiators and velocity envelopes create vivid and powerful orchestral colors.
Load up to 5 different instruments in independent slots and play them together.Compose faster with full instrumental groups
Choose from 150 presets in three categories:
Orchestral Colors
The Orchestral Colors presets are practical combinations of instruments that can be played live on your keyboard.
Orchestral Rhythms
The Orchestral Rhythms contain simple, useful playable patterns for separate sections of the orchestra that make use of our Ensemble Engine.
Animated Orchestra
The animated orchestra presets go even further, and create complex orchestrated rhythms from any played note. This is where the magic happens!
Play the instruments freely:Play your ideas and your melodies freely with the single instrument patches.
Aside from the Ensemble Instrument, The Orchestra also contains 88 single instrument patches for all standard sections and articulations in a symphonic orchestra, including percussion and as a bonus: choir.Or unlash the full orchestral power with over 60 multi-track patches:
Multis take the Ensemble Engine even further toward instant playability and sound as they load and layer multiple instances of The Orchestra.
There are Full Orchestral Multis for single articulations, that work perfectly for quick sketching and layering.
Animated Multis combine multiple instances of the Ensemble Engine for even more complex patterns.The samples: rough & edgy – no polished sound:
The Orchestra was recorded and processed with the intention to sound a bit rougher and more “honest than the common orchestral Hollywood sound. It offers an alternative and promises straight and powerful sounds, punch and a vivid musical experience.
The instruments for The Orchestra were recorded in Budapest at the renowned Studio 22 in their traditional seating position and mixed and edited with great attention to detail. This way the different sections blend together perfectly in the same room. All essential articulations are available, including playable true legato samples and multiple round robins for short articulations.Key features:

Too bad The Orchestra Complete is not on sale, and that Orchestral Tools doesn’t (IMO) offer decent upgrade paths.
Yeah, I don’t get their logic on that. It seems like a huge missed opportunity — unless they’re holding back and saving those deals for the actual Black Friday. Yeah, it feels like we’re all in Bill Murray’s character’s role in “Groundhog Day” (movie) and every day has been Black Friday since September. But maybe that’s from me posting deals all of this time.

Wait, I just noticed this copy at Best Service’s website about The Orchestra Complete:
“Buy The Orchestra Complete 4 and get a € / $50 voucher for your next purchase. Or choose Forces of Fury and receive a € / $25 voucher.

So, that seems to be the deal for The Orchestra Complete when you purchase at Best Service, you get a $50 coupon for your next purchase, but you need to use it before the end of the year.

Bought the original The Orchestra on release, think they made 1 update since release.
They then added midi export to the arp but needed to update to Pro or something to get that.
Afaik there have been feeble priced sales on TO upgrades. Hence I am stuck on the first ever version.
Asked a few times why they make things so unattractive for existing users but always draws a blank.
Basically imo Sonuscore have 0 loyalty to existing customers.

I had no idea regarding upgrade paths. That’s disappointing.I really don’t attempt to do any pure orchestral music and only turn to the package when thinking about spicing up my rock and indie folk rock songs, so for me, the regular version of The Orchestra is even beyond my limited needs. But it’s a total blast to play around with. It’s easily the most exciting orchestral package I own. Although Spitfire Abbey Road 2 Iconic Strings is my dream library (basically, I’ve always wanted a very George Martin-eque string library; that was the point when I worked with Kirk Hunter around a decade ago on the product Pop / Rock Strings — me just advising on the product development and marketing side, not any actual sampling work); so sound-wise that’s my ideal strings library. The Orchestra is my most fun to play orchestral library because it lets me do things with ease that sound like they’d be a lot of work to do.
