The Orchestra by Sonuscore Review

The Orchestra is a tool to score full tracks or more often used to sketch your next inspiration. The Orchestra is produced by Sonuscore and distributed by Best Service. Best Service did send a review copy with no strings attached.

Sonuscore was founded in 2012 as a label of production studio Dynamedion created by the same team that founded BOOM Library company. Sonuscore is releasing new libraries with vast experience in orchestral music production, high-end sound quality claims and a cutting-edge approach to perfectly balanced usability, to shape some of the most incredible virtual instruments out there!

Installation

You can download the library from your Best Service user account. The required Kontakt serial number is needed to activate the library can be found there in the Best Service User Area as well.

Sound

The Orchestra includes all sections of an orchestra and allows you to sketch a score quickly. If you look at this library as a tool to draw you next track, you will understand the high value of this library. After sketching the score, you can add other instruments to polish the score further. One missing element to fully deliver on this workflow is the not available MIDI export function.

The Orchestra is a library that adds value to everyone’s composer toolbox. The Orchestra is compared to other libraries not profoundly sampled and does not include the vast variety of articulations that are involved in many different libraries that focus on specific sections of an orchestra.

Included Instrument in their sections are:

  • Strings: Violin I, Violin II, Violas, Celli, Basses
  • Brass:  4 Horns, 3 Trumpets, 3 Trombones, Low Brass (Tuba & Bass Trombone)
  • Woodwinds: Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Bassoon, Contrabassoon
  • Percussion & Harp:  Concert Harp (plucked), Timpani, Tubular, Bells, Suspended Cymbals, Gran Cassa, Snare Drum, Tam Tam, Piatti, Drum Ensemble, Taikos
  • Choir: Men and Woman sustain (Ah, Oh),  Staccato (11 syllables)
The Orchestra Overview
The Orchestra Different Instruments and presets

All Strings, Brass, and Woods come with Staccato, Sustain (Poly), Marcato. Legato is available in those instruments as well except Contrabassoon. The Strings also offer Tremolo and Pizzicato.

The Orchestra has been recorded at the Studio 22, Budapest in a traditional seating position.

Sonuscore created a large phrase engine, instead of pre-recorded phrases. It is all driven by the phrase engine playing the selected instruments. After you find based your rhythm, you can swap out the used arpeggiator, work with any of the more than 150pre-defined preset or change single instruments to get a different tone.  Compared to pre-recorded libraries this is a big bonus.

The Orchestra Presets
The Orchestra Rhythms Presets

The presets which there should be with the upcoming release of V1.1 almost 200 offers you a high starting point that you should leverage to find some inspiring ideas. The presets available and grouped by Orchestral Colors, Orchestral Rhythms, and Animated Orchestra are designed by Matthias Wolf, Tilman Sillescu, Steffen Brinkmann.

The Orchestra main patch
The Orchestra – Example Snapshot (Not version 1.1)

The Orchestra v1.1 is announced and should become available any day now. The update which will be free for all registered users. Besides a couple of smaller bug fixes, primarily it will include additional content and new features:

  • A Glockenspiel has been added to the engine like a traditional single patch.
  • 42 new presets and 15 new multis are here to keep you inspired.
  • You can now play triplets with our engine.
  • The new user preset browser makes it easy for you to save and share your presets.
  • In the mixer, you can choose the output of the channel if you run Kontakt as a multi-output plugin.
  • On the new settings page, you can change the MIDI CC which controls the dynamic and activate our new humanizer.
  • The instrument browser automatically jumps to the right instrument loaded into the slot you want to edit.
  • The mute buttons are now automatable.
  • Solo and mute buttons are also available on the main page.

User interface & Usability

You can get started without any musical training and produce great sounding results. That speaks to the ease of use of this library. The main missing feature is the possibility to export MIDI. Being able to export MIDI will ramp up the value of the Orchestra engine.

Rating:  Four out of five stars

The Orchestra is a fabulous library for discovering ideas or drafting new tracks. Sonuscore made it so easy, you perform with one finger an excellent sounding automated arrangement of a full orchestra. The captured multi-sampled instruments sound excellent, and the Ensemble Engine bringing musical score creation to a new level of simplicity that is not found elsewhere. What I miss is the possibility to export the MIDI for the created rhythm to easier add other instrument and further use the sketched score.

Celtic Mythology and Music

If you’re a fan of Celtic mythology and music, you’ll love the new sample library by Best Service, called Celtic ERA 2. This library contains sounds of Celtic myths and legends and traditional Irish and Scottish music. This review will take a closer look at what this library offers.

Ireland and Its Rich and Unique Musical Heritage
Ireland and Its Rich and Unique Musical Heritage

Celtic myths are rich in history and tradition. The ancient Celts were a diverse people, with many different tribes and customs. Despite their differences, the Celts shared a common language and culture. Celtic mythology is full of fascinating stories and characters. The myths were passed down orally from generation to generation, and were eventually written down by Christian monks.

Many stories feature gods and goddesses, heroes and villains, magic and mayhem. The Celtic pantheon includes well-known figures like Lugh, Dagda, Brigid, and Cernunnos. These deities represent aspects of nature, human experience, and the cycle of life. The stories of Celtic mythology offer a window into the beliefs and values of the ancient Celts.

Ireland and Its Rich and Unique Musical Heritage

Ireland is a country with a rich and unique musical heritage. For centuries, the music of Ireland has been shaped by the sounds of the Celtic culture. The traditional music of Ireland has its roots in the folk music of the Celtic people. Over time, this folk music has evolved into the distinct Irish sound we know today. In this blog post, we will trace the evolution of Celtic music in Ireland, from its early folk roots to its modern-day sound.

Celtic Myth

The Early Roots of Celtic Music

Celtic music has its origins in the folk music of the Celtic people. The Celtic people are a group of people who inhabit Europe, Asia, and North America. They share a common linguistic and cultural heritage. The Celts first settled in Ireland around 500 BC. Their music was passed down from generation to generation and eventually became known as Celtic music.

The traditional Celtic music of Ireland is very similar to the traditional folk music of other countries. It is often based on dance tunes and ballads. However, what makes Celtic music unique is its use of traditional Irish instruments, such as the bodhran (a type of drum) and the tin whistle. These instruments give Celtic music its distinctive sound.

The Evolution of Celtic Music in Ireland

Celtic music has undergone several changes since its early beginnings. In the 19th century, interest in traditional Irish music began to decline. This was due to the increased popularity of classical music and opera. As a result, many conventional Irish musicians migrated to America in search of work.

Celtic Myth Dreamridiculous Celtic Myths 65fc1b27 92d3 4c42 9f37 ad8970754619
Celtic Myth

In the 20th century, there was a renewed interest in traditional Irish music. This was partly due to the work of ethnomusicologists such as Alan Lomax, who recorded traditional Irish musicians and songs for posterity. In addition, many Irish immigrants brought their musical traditions with them when they moved to America during this period. As a result, Celtic music underwent something of a revival in Ireland and America.

Whether you’re looking for eerie pads or unsettling sound effects, this library has you covered. So if you’re looking to add a touch of dystopia to your next project, be sure to check out this library.

Extraordinary and Dark Bass Sound

Whether you’re looking to create thumping basslines or atmospheric textures, Dark Horizon has the perfect sound for you. And with its fully customizable themes, you can create your own unique soundscapes that will take your music to new heights. So dive into the dark side and explore all that Dark Horizon has to offer.

To truly appreciate the depths of powerful bass, you need to experience it in person. There’s something about feeling the low frequencies rumble through your chest that just can’t be replicated by any other type of sound system. If you’re looking for an unforgettable bass experience, then you need a subwoofer that can deliver the goods.

The best way to get dark, clean, and deep bass is with a high-quality subwoofer. But not just any subwoofer will do, you need one that is specifically designed for extraordinary Dark Bass Sound. When it comes to subs, bigger is definitely better. A larger subwoofer will be able to produce lower frequencies than a smaller one. And when it comes to Dark Bass Sound, you need all the low end you can get.

Dark Horizon, with its emphasis on dark, filthy bass sounds, takes the Elysion series in new directions. As any music lover knows, the bass is an essential part of any song. Not only does it provide a deep, guttural groove, but it also helps to anchor the melody and keep the rhythm flowing.

However, when the bass is too loud or distorted, it can quickly become overwhelming and difficult to listen to. This is often referred to as “filthy bass.” While some people enjoy the challenge of trying to decipher a song with a filthy bassline, others find it grating and obnoxious.

In either case, there’s no denying that filthy bass sounds are becoming increasingly popular in the world of music. Whether you love them or hate them, there’s no doubt that they’re here to stay.

Tobias Menguser – The Designer Behind Dark Horizon

Tobias Menguser sent waves into the far reaches of space, where only terrible dreams and figments of reality reside, in order to explore unchartered territory. In those unknown locations, the noises were contorted and modified, eventually yielding a complete range of dark and low basses. They transformed into snarling vocals, howling oscillations, and subterranean vibrations.

Tobias Menguser has been a sound designer since the 1990s, and he began by creating synths for companies such as Waldorf, Ensoniq, and Clavia. He was also among the first to create sample CD-ROMs for the Ensoniq EPS16+ and ASR10. For over ten years, Tobias has worked for Native Instruments, where he contributed sounds to more than 450 US film trailers in the last 10 years.

Modern Producers and Score Composers

The modern film and television industry has a growing demand for new producers and score composers. There are many reasons for this, but the most important one is that these positions are essential for the creative process. A producer helps to bring a project to life, while a composer creates the music that will accompany it. Together, they help to create an immersive experience for the audience.

The role of a producer has evolved significantly in recent years. In the past, producers were primarily responsible for managing the finances of a project. Today, they play a much more active role in its development. They work closely with the director to ensure that the vision for the project is realized. They also interact with other members of the team, including the writers, actors, and crew.

The role of a composer is also changing. In the past, they were often seen as mere technicians who created music that was indistinguishable from one project to the next. Today, they are considered to be artists who can help to enhance the emotional impact of a scene or story. They work closely with the producer and director to create a soundtrack that is unique and expressive.

Together, the producer and composer help to create an immersive experience for the audience. They are essential members of any creative team, and their work is becoming increasingly important in the world of film and television.

Dark Horizon’s library of grinds and grooves can add new power to your production with its ambient, modern electronic, and experimental music. For tension-building underscore, these sounds are ideal. There are many different types of music out there, but three of the most popular genres are ambient, modern electronic, and experimental. Each one has its own unique sound and style, and they can all be enjoyed in different ways.

Ambient music is typically slow and relaxing, with sounds that are meant to be background noise rather than the focus of attention. This type of music is perfect for studying, working, or just relaxing. Modern electronic music is often more upbeat and lively, with a focus on synthesizers and other electronic instrumentation. This genre is great for dancing or working out.

Experimental music is just that – experimental. This type of music often pushes the boundaries of what is considered “music”, and can be difficult to categorize. It’s perfect for those who want to explore new sounds and ideas. Dark Horizon is the perfect toolkit for any producer or composer looking to add dark, low basses to their music.

Ambient – Resynthesized – Cinematic 

In recent years, a new type of music has emerged that blends the best of several different genres. This style, which has been variously referred to as “ambient,” “resynthesized,” or “cinematic,” combines elements of electronica, classical music, and film soundtracks to create a unique listening experience. The result is a sound that is both highly atmospheric and deeply moving.

The dark powers of eldritch gods are used to bring sounds to new heights of unearthly horror, with analog rack effects and the abyssal depths of hellish soundscapes. Dark Horizon is a great bass and depth instrument for any project that needs a kick of deep, gritty bass or as an exceptional synth to produce creative melodies with powerful sound.

Layered – Dirty – Powerful

Imagine this as sound and music:

The storm raged on through the night, lashing the coast with powerful winds and pounding waves. For hours, the small cottage shuddered under the force of the storm, its foundations creaking in protest. Finally, just before dawn, the wind began to die down, and the rain slowed to a trickle. When the sun finally rose, it revealed a scene of devastation.

The once-pristine beach was now strewn with debris, and the water was murky and brown. It would take days for the cleanup crews to clear away the mess left behind by the storm, but eventually, the beach would be returned to its former glory. In the meantime, however, its power and fury would be remembered by all who witnessed it.
