      “The best-selling and most awarded orchestral virtual instrument ever created”

      Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition is the highly anticipated expansion to Hollywood Orchestra, the best-selling and most awarded orchestral virtual instrument ever produced. It includes brand new pristine recordings, reimagined original content, and powerful new features, all housed in the new revolutionary OPUS software engine.

      Produced by Doug Rogers and Nick Phoenix, recipients of over 100 international industry Awards, and sound engineered by multiple Academy Award and BAFTA winner Shawn Murphy, Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition is the culmination of years of recording and programming and will set a new industry standard for achieving professional sounding orchestral soundtracks.

      Includes Hollywood Orchestrator ($199 value)
      Includes Opus Software
      Includes Hollywood Orchestra new content and reimagined original content
      Includes all Hollywood Solo Instruments ($299 value)
      Hard Disk space required – 950GB
      24bit / 44.1khz files and all mic positions.-
      Brand new recordings include a new 18 violin string section for Hollywood Strings, new ensembles for Hollywood Brass and Hollywood Orchestral Woodwinds, plus new string, brass, and wind multi ensembles. The programming of the original content from Hollywood Orchestra and Hollywood Solo Instrument Series have been updated to take advantage of the features included in the new Opus software engine. Particular focus was placed on Hollywood Orchestral Woodwinds. After improving the original woodwinds, new ensembles were recorded, including 3 bassoons, 3 clarinets, and 3 flutes. The Opus Edition also includes new string, brass and wind multi ensembles that have a unique fat sound that captures the tuning of a large orchestra playing together in a live setting.

        @bluescat

        “HOOPUS” for $149 is a great deal.  It does eat a whole terabyte if you download the entire library, but the Opus engine does support “download on demand”, where sections are only downloaded as you implement them.  You will have to wait a bit (or maybe a long time), depending on your d/l speed and how many sections / articulations your patch requires.  Once stored locally, they stay in place until removed, so as you pull in new data the drive space will increase, unless you clear it out.  I bought this on a terabyte SSD for an extra $50 from EastWest a couple years ago, but the drive ended up failing after about a year and a half, so I don’t recommend that option.

          Thanks for your post @bluescat

          This kind of sharing (your own not so good experience with a product: in this case the SSD) is very valuable.

            And this is exactly the kind of thing that is being censored for big advertisers at two of the biggest forums in this business.

            One of our members is the former editor of a major music publication who shared his story with me, and I can tell you my story directly of that occurring to a site owner — who I knew more than 10 years at that point — who thought that because I’m a marketing professional that I would understand those practices as he told me that negative posting against his paying forum sponsors was not okay at his forum. I suppose that experience was likely the moment where I felt a strong desire to create what became LinkedMusicians.

            We’re actually an EastWest affiliate partner and one of our moderators just posted a critical/negative experience with that developer and he knows that our values are to respect those who do so and to encourage the sharing of honest experiences (positive and negative), even to the point where he shared his own experience. That would not happen at two of the biggest forums in this industry. But our first priority is to music creators and ensuring honest conversations.
