As if all this were not enough, to round it all off there’s a huge selection of mixed ensembles spread across the keyboard for a fast workflow and useful sketching.
#IS GARRITAN ORCHESTRA BETTER THAN NOTION 5 FULL#
Other instruments of note include organ, guitars, harps and harpsichord and a full orchestral percussion section, complete with maps. So, too, are the tuned chromatic percussion instruments, marimba, glockenspiel and chimes. Sing OutĪ very welcome addition are the choirs – female, male and mixed – that are as good, if not better than, other budget choirs we’ve encountered. HALion Sonic SE 2 is included in Cubase (version 7.5 or higher) and Cubase Artist (version 7.5 or higher) and Nuendo NEK (version 6.5 or higher). The HALion Symphonic Orchestra has a wide range of orchestral instruments, including solo, tutti and ensemble sounds in various playing styles and articulations. Garritan Personal Orchestra 5 (GPO5) is a good choice and contains a complete orchestra with over 500 instrument choices, along with comprehensive control and a very easy-to-use ARIA player. Fortunately, for orchestral newbies, who are more likely to be attracted to this library, a range of playable ensembles is also provided for simple arranging.
Articulations are numerous throughout, which is ideal for experienced composers. There’s also a range of choirs and four grand pianos. It can also be used as an add-on instrument collection for SampleTank 3.Īll four sections of the orchestra are represented – strings, brass, woodwinds and percussion. It’s supplied as a standalone workstation or a DAW plug-in. The upside to this, of course, is that it is more CPU-friendly, making it suitable for all types of computer. That said, the 16-bit sample rate here is lower than the full version.
With a 10GB library and over 700 instruments spread across the same categories as the full version, the word ‘budget’ doesn’t really apply, content-wise. For those on a budget, IK has recently released a slimmed-down version, Miroslav Philharmonik 2 CE, based on SampleTank 3’s 64-bit engine.
