It is a very nice instrument library with an excellent range of options and a good sound quality for a free price. However, a major downside is that there is no way to get a raw sound of any of the instruments without reverb. I have also commonly encountered a glitch where exporting sounds made with this plugin out of Ableton causes the BBC Orchestra sound to cut off after only a few beats.
The sounds of the instruments are beautiful.
it is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good
BBC Symphony Orchestra Discover is by far the finest full orchestra bundle I have found to date. From the smallest ensemble to every instrument in there, elegant and immediately usable. I tend to use my own piano(s), but this is not a problem. Dragging that horn section into R&B projects has redefined my approach there. Bravo!
Good intro fo full version.
It’s absolutely amazing,great quality
Great plug in
I couldn’t even figure out how to download this thing and to get it to work
The product is good. But the sounds quality and definition is very poor in comparison whit the huge variety that spitfire sound have. May be, just improved a little would be great!! I understand that is free. But why every time free is relative to low quality? I use this for client preview or samples, but in a huge production I’ll use oblivion or native instruments or sonus score or eastwest Hollywood strings. More realistic
Love the sounds especially the horns and basoon.
Sounds Premium, the samples have a good bitrate, doesn't sound compressed, strings sound like true bow movement, though woodwinds seem to lack a bit of life when played in repeated staccato
I used it on a project, (mostly the string section) and was really impressed and happy with the results. I found it intuitive and the sounds were fantastic. Highly recommend if you are looking for a first orchestral "plugin".
Can not use LABS AUDIO because my password problems won't let me in
The free version lacks everything that would make it a five star
nice, I'm satisfied
wonderful sounds. also available thru splice instrument which is a free plug from splice
It is exellent, but some instruments are missing. Keep going.
so gooooooooooooooooooooood
